JoVE Video Collection on Biofilm Models

In partnership with PIPE-CF, NBIC is currently developing a peer reviewed JoVE video collection on Infection-Relevant Models for Fundamental Microbiology Research and Antimicrobial Drug Development.

The collection aims to highlight recent advances in the development and validation of infection-relevant models. It will encompass a wide variety of models, ranging from high-throughput, chemically-defined bacterial culture media that reflect host environments to models of host-pathogen interactions and advanced systems for studying drug pharmacokinetics under infection-relevant conditions.

We encourage our NBIC community to submit abstracts for this JoVE collection on biofilm models, which can be used to answer fundamental questions on mechanisms of biofilm-mediated infection and for efficacy testing of antimicrobial interventions.
