Welcome to microbe city!
Run time: 11.00 – 16.00
Visit Microbe City and wander through the wondrous world of biofilms.
Biofilms are collaborative communities of micro-organisms, like bacteria or fungi, that develop and grow together. They’re part of all our lives – important to everything from food to medicine.
Meet researchers from the Open Innovation Hub for Antimicrobial Surfaces (University of Liverpool) and the National Biofilm Innovation Centre to discover more about their cutting-edge projects. You’ll find out more about these amazing microbes and how they’re used to help people and industry. We’ll be making a huge Lego model of a biofilm together which everyone can add to!
