Antimicrobial resistance is a threat to public health for which new treatments are urgently required. The capability of bacteria to form biofilms is of particular concern as it enables high bacterial tolerance to conventional therapies by reducing dr...

To tackle the emerging antibiotic resistance crisis, novel antimicrobial approaches are urgently needed. Bacterial biofilms are a particular concern in this context as they are responsible for over 80% of bacterial infections and are inherently more...
