Co-assembling living material as an in vitro lung epithelial infection model (2023)
Journal Article

Biofilms are robust living 3D materials that play key roles in nature but also cause major problems, such as tolerance to antibiotic treatment. Recreation of these living structures in vitro is critical to understand their biology and develop solutio...

Identification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exopolysaccharide Psl in biofilms using 3D OrbiSIMS (2023)
Journal Article

Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) offers advantages over both liquid extraction mass spectrometry and matrix assisted laser desorption mass spectrometry in that it provides the direct in situ analysis of molecules and has the potential to preser...

Variable disruption of epithelial monolayers by Neisseria meningitidis carriage isolates of the hypervirulent MenW cc11 and MenY cc23 lineages (2023)
Journal Article

Colonization of mucosal tissues by Neisseria meningitidis requires adhesion mediated by the type IV pilus and multiple outer-membrane proteins. Penetration of the mucosa and invasion of epithelial cells are thought to contribute to host persistence a...
