Pathogenic Microbiology is the study of microorganisms that cause diseases in humans, animals, and plants. This field focuses on understanding how these harmful microbes, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, invade hosts and trigger illness. By examining their structures, life cycles, and interactions with the immune system, scientists can develop effective treatments and preventive measures. Researchers in Pathogenic Microbiology also explore how these pathogens spread and evolve. This knowledge is crucial for controlling outbreaks and improving public health. By studying diseases like tuberculosis and influenza, scientists aim to create vaccines and therapies that protect against these infectious agents.
