Microbiology
The modules in this course are one week in length. Time goes quickly, so remember to post early! Check the discussions as often as you can to see what others have posted and to respond. The earlier in the week that you begin posting, the deeper the conversation and learning will be.
In this activity you have the opportunity to apply your understanding of microbial growth control. Compose responses to the following questions incorporating the knowledge you've gained from your readings and then post to the discussion.
Using the information you learned from the articles you reviewed this week by Birch, Willyard, and Sifri, answer the follow questions:
• What do you think are the most important changes in chemotherapeutic management of microbial disease?
• How are these related to new discoveries in intracellular bacterial communication and cooperative behaviors?
• How can biofilm formation impact treatment of infectious disease?
Find posts that differ from yours and either add information to supplement the post or offer an alternative explanation.
Remember to answer all questions from the instructor.
Initial Discussion Post
Your initial post should be at least 250 words and must substantively integrate the assigned readings from the module with proper APA style formatting// You may use additional sources and materials as long as they are relevant to the discussion and cited properly.
