SYMPOSIUM
The Biofilm Matrix: Fundamental understanding and translational impact
6-8 March 2024
9am – 5.30pm
Shaw Foundation Alumni House, NUS
The symposium will delve into key aspects of the biofilm matrix, including its biogenesis, biophysical properties, matrix-function structure relationship, and the development of effective control strategies. Research advances involving understanding the fundamental role of matrix components in biofilm formation, biofilm architecture and emergent properties, as well as biofilm matrix derived industrial applications will be addressed.
