"We believe that understanding the relationships between bacteria and their environment will lead to preventing disease and promoting health. We probe these relationships at the cellular level by combining high-resolution microscopy with molecular, biochemical and biophysical techniques. We also elucidate protein-protein interactions that govern essential cellular functions, assess the impact of antimicrobial treatment on clinical bacterial isolates, and explore the cellular interactions that promote bacterial biofilm formation and host attachment."
