Biofilm Building: A Simple Board Game to Reinforce Knowledge of Biofilm Formation

The increasing risk of antibiotic resistance and correlating decrease in effective clinical treatments is a serious issue worldwide. One source antibiotic tolerance derives from biofilm infections: collectives of bacteria surrounded by an extracellular matrix that adhere to surfaces. Here we outline...
