研究领域

Microbial Biofilms and their Control, Adaptive Biology and Evolution of Microorganisms, Biofilm-Associated Infection, Microbial Ecology, Environmental Biotechnology, Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR). Bacteria often switch from a free-living lifestyle to a surface adapted, structured lifestyle known as a biofilm. Biofilms are increasingly recognised as the predominant mode of bacterial growth including within medical, engineered, and environmental contexts. Biofilms are notorious for their resistance to environmental stresses, including antimicrobial compounds. This tolerance often links biofilms with persistent and chronic infection, and provides ideal conditions for the acquisition or evolution of AMR. My research group aims to understand how biofilms develop and disperse and how they respond to environmental stresses including therapeutic compounds. This approach is providing new technologies and strategies to control biofilms in industrial and medical settings.
