The cell wall is a universal feature of bacteria that determines their shape, their effect on the human immune system, and their susceptibility to many of our front-line antibiotics. Therefore, it is essential to understand this structure's physiology. In this video, Simbios postdoctoral fellow Dr. Enrique Rojas describes his experiments using single-cell, time-lapse microscopy and microfluidic-based cell culture to examine the fundamental biomechanical and biochemical processes that drive cell-wall expansion during cell growth.
