The goal is to understand how these biofilms can integrate and protect pathogens from external stress. Using multi-omics tools, you will study interactions in the multi-species biofilm contributing to
the central goal of the research. The candidate will have the opportunity to collaborate with investigators and partners from various institutions, including the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the USDA-ARS Meat Animal Research Center.
