Enabling Technology Translation In Biofilms & Microbiomes

Microbial biofilms and communities collectively represent the largest biomass and activity centre on the planet playing a major role in the biology of the environment (both natural and engineered) and in maintaining public health. Therefore, the understanding of biofilms is key to discovering, controlling and directing the behaviour of microbial biofilm communities for sustainable environmental, engineering, public health and medical applications. SNBC has four major focus areas across a wide spectrum of industry domains.
