Biofilm Formation in Staphylococcus

We have initiated studies of biofilm formation in Staphylococcus aureus over the past few years..

In one project, we identified a novel role for the toxin in biofilm formation. To learn more about this project, click here.

In a second project, we identified a compound found on the surface of mammalian cells and used in kidney dialysis units that stimulates biofilm formation. To learn more about this project, click here .
