This project investigates how bacterial biofilms interact with antibiotics, particularly in the context of middle ear infections. Using advanced microscopy, it aims to understand the spatial dynamics of antibiotic distribution and its effects on bacterial survival.
Bacterial infections in the human body mostly involve biofilms - locally dense populations of bacteria that are extremely difficult to treat with antibiotics.
Understanding antibiotic-biofilm interactions is crucial if we are to design better antibiotic treatment regimes to avoid the emergence of antibiotic resistance.
In biofilms, bacteria are surrounded by a biopolymer matrix which can inhibit the motion of antibiotic molecules, leading to complex diffusive behaviour.
Yet it is not known how t…
