About

Dr. Karen Visick is a Professor at Loyola University Medical Center in the United States. Her research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of biofilm formation and the physiological interactions in the model organism Vibrio fischeri. Recent publications explore topics such as genetic factors influencing biofilm dynamics, calcium signaling in microbial communities, and the complexity of microbial life forms in host-associated environments.
