| Sommario/riassunto: | This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date compendium of critical information for those working in the field of fungal biofilms, and those entering the field. The WHO has published a list of critical high-priority fungal pathogens, many of which are capable of forming biofilms. The editors have brought together a team of world experts to impart their knowledge of specific elements of fungal biofilm biology and their clinical underpinning. The book covers critical areas of state-of-the-art research that are shaping the direction of travel within the biofilm research community. It focuses on the basic biology of how biofilms are formed and controlled, through applied areas of research where we can effectively manage these complex infections. . |
