Microbiology Department
Study of microbes and microbial diseases
Microbiology Overview
Department of Microbiology
Microbiology is the scientific discipline that examines microbes and microbial diseases. Microbes, small organisms that require microscopic tools for visualization, encompass bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. The discoveries of microbes and the realization that they represent causative agents of human, animal and plant diseases have transformed biological sciences and established the very broad foundations of molecular medicine.
Our department is dedicated to providing quality education through both teaching and research to meet the needs of this growing field. Faculty members pursue research in immunology, virology, microbial ecology and pathology, and microbial genetics through collaborations with various prominent sources.
Research Focus:
- Biology, transmission, immunology and pathogenesis of microbes
- Viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites that cause disease
- Microbial communities and their interactions
- Development of new strategies for personalized medicine
