Abstract:
This contribution honoring David C. White (DC) summarizes the five years I interacted with him on a daily basis in his laboratory. Over this time we worked on many different projects all tied together by the unifying principle now recognized as central to bacterial life in nature: biofilms. My goal is to convey some of the excitement and joy of working with DC and, from my perspective, that means telling how the Biofilm Imaging Facility at the Center for Environmental Biotechnology (CEB) came into existence and describing some of the projects on which DC and I worked.
