      I found that certain types of bacteria can enhance the damage caused by the fungus Candida in biofilms when they are part of a mixed microorganism infection!

      The outcome of this was that we need to consider bacteria as well as candida in this particular type of infection a bit more than we do currently.. (for dentistry at least). 🙂

      Hi Legend!

      The largest breakthrough that I’ve made is having a deeper understanding on how our brain communicates with our muscles. This is allowing for a better control in prosthetics!

      Managing to glue two things that don’t like being glued together.
      It was difficult stuff!

      I’ve managed to make a model of the human foot in a computer! This is good because it can be used as part of a 3D printing process from a medical image to a useful product!
