Research summary
AI-generated

Erin S. Gloag studies bacterial biofilms—communities of bacteria that stick together and to surfaces, often making infections harder to treat. Their work spans how biofilms form and spread (including mechanisms like membrane vesicle release and coordinated group movement), how to detect and monitor them, and how engineered surfaces or coatings might prevent or disrupt biofilm growth.

Publication output rose from a low base in 2017-2019 to a peak around 2021-2022, then declined and became more variable through 2023-2026.
