SUMMARY:Seminar “Bio-Inspired Engineering of Surfaces to Prevent Bacteria
 l\nAttachment” by Benjamin Hatton\, Assistant Professor\, Department of\
 nMaterials Science and Engineering\, University of Toronto
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:  Implanted medical devices are at significant risk o
 f\ndeveloping bacterial biofilm-associated infections and approximately\n6
 0% of all hospital-acquired infections are due to biofilm formation\non im
 planted devices. Bacterial biofilms are encased in an\nextracellular matri
 x\, largely polysaccharide\, which protects from\nantibiotics and the host
  immune system. Herein I will present three\n‘bio-inspired’ approaches
  to design surfaces to prevent bacterial\nattachment and biofilm formation
 .
