- Due to rapidly increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) worldwide, our current arsenal of antibiotics is becoming less and less effective in treating bacterial infections. After new antibiotics are introduced, bacteria quickly develop resistance against them. As a result, the return on investment in new antibiotics is minimal and their supply is scarce. A sustainable introduction is only possible…

- The rapid spread of multidrug resistant bacteria threatens the treatment of even simple infections in the near future. However, little is known about how bacteria develop resistance on surfaces.AimThe aim of this project was to investigate fundamental mechanisms that shape antimicrobial resistance in biofilms in relation to the surface and then translate those findings into clinical practice…
