Beyond excited to share this preprint of my work looking at how P. aeruginosa’s surface motility influences S. aureus spatial organization, physiology, and survival.
Check out our newest preprint: P. aeruginosa uses pilus-mediated motility to invade and disperse S. aureus biofilms, rendering Sa cells susceptible to Pa antimicrobials. Without invasion Pa restricts Sa expansion forming dense Sa colonies with altered physiology @asanchezpena_

Researchers found that Pseudomonas aeruginosa persists and continues to evolve throughout the upper and lower airways of people with CF despite the use of highly effective modulator therapy. @catarmbruster @vscooper @jbombscientist journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…

Replying to @USFTCOP
I had the opportunity to present on my microfluidics research at the Global Nanobiotechnology Consortium Conference this month. It was a wonderful learning experience. Any opportunity to talk about our work in the @DarchLab is always appreciated and exciting! 😄 – at Tampa, FL
