In viral genetics, scientists study the life cycle of viruses from a genetic perspective. They may study various aspects of viral biology including how the genes affect biophysical, biochemical, and biologic pathways critical to the virus' survival.
Increasing prevalence and severity of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections has necessitated novel antibacterial strategies. Ideally, new approaches would target bacterial pat...
Adjunct probiotic therapy has the potential to decrease Clostridium difficile disease incidence and severity. After screening several potential probiotic bacteria for intrinsic resistance to...

It is well accepted that microorganisms can exist as self-organized communities attached to surfaces and one another (i.e., biofilm), often surrounded by extracellular polymeric substances (E...
Despite FDA-approved vaccines and antivirals, seasonal and pandemic influenza remains a serious threat associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. The present modalities and va...
Reproducibility refers to the ability of an experiment or study to be replicated, either by the same person or group or by others working independently. With regard to scientific public...
This presentation will discuss fundamental physical, chemical, and biological concepts important to understanding control of detrimental biofilms. Four phenomena that are important in the act...
Managing microbial contaminants is critical during the manufacturing of biologics, food and beverage to ensure that products meet the high quality product standard as well as staying complian...
