Short description

This project is about - Advanced approaches to understanding biofilm-related infections in orthopaedic implants: from in vitro to in vivo models

DC 2: 

Project Description

Short description: DC2 will study the molecular mechanisms of biofilm formation linked to implant-associated infections. Utilising advanced in vitro and in vivo models, the project will explore bacterial-osteoblast interactions, biofilm development, and the role of staphylococcal adhesins in infection persistence. Collaborations with genetic engineering experts will support the creation of mutant strains to better understand key pathogenic pathways.
