Candida albicans is a commensal fungus in the gastrointestinal and vaginal tracts in healthy individuals. When host defenses are breached, disease symptoms can develop ranging from mild infections (oral thrush, mucocutaneous candidiasis) to more severe life-threatening fungal diseases (invasive candidiasis). Interaction between the fungus and host cells is a process that has not yet been fully quantified. Current treatments are insufficient and resistance to available drugs compromises effective patient management. Identifying and understanding fungal virulence factors, such as the adhesion strength between C.albicans and host cells is a prerequisite to find better treatments. In this project, we developed a new technique based on microflui...
