Spatial structure facilitates the accumulation and persistence of antibiotic‐resistant mutants in biofilms

The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens are a global crisis. Because many bacterial infections are caused by pathogens that reside in biofilms, we sought to investigate how biofilms influence the evolution of antibiotic resistance. We hypothesize that the inherent sp...
