The Open Challenge of in vitro Modeling Complex and Multi-Microbial Communities in Three-Dimensional Niches

Abstract excerpt

The comprehension of the underlying mechanisms of the interactions within microbial communities represents a major challenge to be faced to control their outcome. Joint efforts of in vitro, in vivo and ecological models are crucial to controlling human health, including chronic infections. In a broader perspective, considering that polymicrobial communities are ubiquitous in nature, the understanding of these...
