Biofilm is a multidisciplinary, gold open access journal focused on hypothesis- or discovery-driven studies on microbial biofilms (i.e. multicellular communities, including surface-attached biofilms and suspended aggregates). The journal will cover biofilms in all (micro)environments, including clinical and industrial settings and the natural environment. We accept articles that describe the basic biology of single or mixed-species biofilms (irrespective of the organism), manuscripts dealing with applied/translational aspects of biofilms, as well as manuscripts describing innovative biofilm methods. Biofilm aims to bring together different disciplines to significantly advance the knowledge of microbial communities, and encourages exploring the interfaces between these disciplines.
