A public health crisis is brewing with regard to hospital-acquired infections. The ability of bacterial and fungal organisms to attach and bind tightly to the surface of invasive medical devices is the root-cause of the majority of hospital-acquired infections. This research will study how bacteria and fungi interact in communities attached to medical devices, and devise strategies for their combined treatment.

一场关于医院获得性感染的公共卫生危机正在酝酿之中。细菌和真菌有机体附着和紧密结合侵入性医疗器械表面的能力是大多数医院获得性感染的根本原因。这项研究将研究细菌和真菌如何在附着在医疗设备上的社区中相互作用，并为它们的联合治疗制定策略。
