This project focuses on understanding the formation of biofilms, particularly by the pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, on medical device surfaces. It aims to develop a mathematical model to visualize and predict biofilm growth, which could inform the design of better medical implants.
Biofilms play a pivotal role in healthcare-associated infections, especially those related to indwelling medical devices, such as intra-vascular and urinary catheters, cardiac pacemakers and orthopaedic implants.
Many mathematical models have been developed to simulate and elucidate the main processes characterizing biofilm growth.
Biofilm models have been widely acknowledged as a tool for fundamental understanding of wastewater treatment processes, the morphology of biofilm structures and fo…
