What will I learn?
This focused Biofilm Course equips you with hands-on skills to study, measure, and manage biofilms on medical devices. Master essential microbiology techniques, imaging tools, and viability tests, then create reliable small-scale experiments with good controls, stats, and safety measures. Grasp clinical importance, decode complex data, and assess chemical, physical, and biological ways to cut down catheter-related biofilms.
