![]() | Targeting Biofilms in Translational Research, Device Development, and Industrial Sectors Dustin L. Williams has developed translational animal models of biofilm-related infection to mimic clinical scenarios, such as open fractures, wherein biofilms from natural sources (e.g. soil) may be initial contaminants of a wound site. He is a founding member of three companies that have been launched out of the University of Utah; each focusing on anti-biofilm technologies. In 2016, he became the Director of the Bone and Joint Research Lab located in the Department of Veterans Affairs in Salt Lake City, UT. Dustin and his team manage research programs that span biofilm-related infections, osseointegration, bone pathologies such as heterotopic ossification, and specialize in hard plastic embedment for histological analysis.
