Biofilms serve as crucial cues for settlement and metamorphosis in marine invertebrates. Within bacterial systems, c-di-GMP functions as a pivotal signaling molecule regulating both biofilm formation and dispersion. However, the molecular mechanism of ho
Tom Battin's lab, the "Stream Biofilm and Ecosystem Research Laboratory," at EPFL is interested in biofilms, the dominant form of microbial life in streams, and they study the assembly of these microbial “jungles” and the biodiversity dynamics therein ranging from the microbial scale to the ...

Polymicrobial synergy within oral biofilm promotes invasion of dendritic cells and survival of consortia members. Years of human microbiome research have confirmed that microbes rarely live or function alone, favoring diverse communities. Yet most experimental host-pat... - 《Npj Biofilms & Microbiomes...
22, who showed that the richness and diversity of microbiota and the abundance of hereditary and environmental microbes were higher in people with longevity than young people. According to PCoA, the gut microbiota of the older groups (Y80, Y100, Y120) differed significantly from that of the ...
Dental caries, a highly prevalent oral disease, impacts a significant portion of the global population. Conventional approaches that indiscriminately eradicate microbes disrupt the natural equilibrium of the oral microbiota. In contrast, biointervention
ecology and communal function of biofilms, populations and communities, as well as derived applications across the medical, environmental and engineering domains. Our scope covers the entirety of the field, from cell–cell communication and single cell interaction with the environment, all the way to...

Microbes, as part of biofilms and/or present in complex microbiomes, play an increasingly appreciated role in many engineered, as well as natural processes, including the physiology of all living organisms. It is an extremely satisfying moment to be part of a new journal capturing the best of...
Diversity is often implied to have a positive effect on the functional stability of ecological communities. However, its relationship with stochastic and deterministic assembly mechanisms remains largely unknown, particularly under fluctuating disturbanc
