There are major societal health challenges associated with bacterial infection and ultimately the emergence of anti-microbial resistance fomented in biofilms. The aim of this workshop is to

1. Showcase research by academics and industry

2. Increase understanding of the applied challenges

3. Develop new collaborations between academic and industrial partners

The workshop is a joint venture between the BioActive Fluids group (formerly known as UK Fluids Network | Bioactive Fluids SIG) and the National Biofilms Innovation Centre NBIC | Harnessing the UK’s Academic & Industrial Strength in Biofilms and is supported by EP/S033211/1 Shape, shear, search & strife; mathematical models of bacteria (ukri.org).
