• Keywords:

  biofilm; bacteria; Pseudomonas aeruginosa; bacterial genetics; molecular biology

• Brief description of your expertise / expertise you are looking for:

  I am a bacteriologist specialising in biofilms. The skills I can contribute to a project include genetics, molecular biology techniques and microscopy. The organism I am most experienced in is Pseudomonas aeruginosa, but I have worked with several other species as well.

• Brief description of your project / the project you would like to join:

  If there is a project that can benefit from the addition of including biofilms, I would be happy to contribute.
