DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2023504118
Abstract: Significance Multicellular bacterial communities called biofilms and pellicles significantly influence medical infections and industrial biofouling. Biofilms and pellicles often act as reservoirs of toxigenic bacteria. Here, we report a fractal wrinkling morphogenesis program that underlies… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.03090
Abstract: Bacteria form biofilms as a means to adapt to environmental changes for survival. Pellicle is a floating biofilm formed at the air–liquid interface in static culture conditions; however, its functional roles have received relatively little… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms23031157
Abstract: Extensive biofilm formation on materials used in restorative dentistry is a common reason for their failure and the development of oral diseases like peri-implantitis or secondary caries. Therefore, novel materials and strategies that result in… read more here.
