Paul Stoodley is a scientist who studies how bacteria stick together and form communities called biofilms. These biofilms can develop on many surfaces, including medical devices, water pipes, and inside the human body. His work helps us understand how biofilms protect bacteria from antibiotics and other treatments, making infections harder to treat. By studying these processes, Stoodley aims to find better ways to prevent or remove harmful biofilms, improving health outcomes and hygiene across different industries.
