## Communicated by Q. Wang We analyze a system of reaction-diffusion equations that models quorum-sensing in a growing biofilm. The model comprises two nonlinear diffusion effects: a porous medium-type degeneracy and super diffusion. We prove the wellposedness of the model. In particular, we prese

The bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa use the size and density of their colonies to regulate the production of a large variety of substances, including toxins. This phenomenon, called quorum sensing, apparently enables colonies to grow to sufficient size undetected by the immune system of the host org
