Article Synopsis
  • New strategies for visualizing Candida biofilms are essential for studying their structure and antifungal responses.
  • Whole slide imaging (WSI) was used to analyze biofilm formation in three Candida species, revealing how antifungals affected biofilm size and structure.
  • WSI provided reliable imaging at both large scales and single-cell levels, making it a valuable tool for studying fungal biofilm growth.
