Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Andressa Prado"
- Andressa Prado's research primarily focuses on the interactions and implications of fungal biofilms in clinical settings, examining how mixed fungal infections can complicate diagnosis and treatment protocols, as highlighted in her 2022 article on mixed fungal biofilms.
- She investigates specific opportunistic fungal pathogens, such as Rhodotorula spp. and Trichosporon spp., exploring their virulence in mixed biofilm environments and the potential challenges they pose in infections, as presented in her 2022 study.
- Prado has also conducted research on the formation of naturally occurring fungal biofilms on medical devices like intragastric balloons, aiming to understand the effects of various factors on biofilm development and species involved, indicating a clear connection between biomedicine and microbiology in her recent publications.
