Nicola Stanley-Wall FRSE FRSB is a Professor of Microbiology in the School of Life Sciences at the University of Dundee who works on the molecular mechanism of biofilm formation.
[7] Due to the increasing risk of antibiotic resistance and correlating decrease in effective clinical treatments, this work has a clear pathway to impact.
[10] Stanley-Wall received her PhD from the University of East Anglia in 2000, working with Prof. Tracy Palmer in the Nitrogen Fixation Laboratory at the John Innes Centre.
[12] For this project, NBIC is working across four strategic themes to prevent, detect, manage and engineer biofilms, using world-class underpinning research to address sectoral challenges identified with industry partners.
[13] In 2005 she was awarded a BBSRC David Phillips Fellowship for her work on environmental regulators and the genes required for biofilm formation by Bacillus subtilis.
