Participants will learn the principles behind the use
of various experimental systems to grow and image
biofilms as well as techniques to image biofilms on
clinical and ex vivo animal samples. There will be
hands on demonstrations of how to assemble a
basic flow cell system, perform PNA FISH and live
/ dead viability staining and how to best present and
quantify your confocal images using Imaris and
COMSTAT imaging software. There will be plenty
of opportunity for interactive discussion between
participants and workshop faculty during the
workshop.
