Research Focus
The research in my laboratory focuses on biofilm formation by foodborne bacterial pathogens, with special emphasis on Bacillus cereus and Listeria monocytogenes. Our goal is to understand the mechanisms of attachment and biofilm formation and environmental factors that affect these processes, and to develop strategies for control.
