microbiological research

Microbiological research studies tiny living organisms called microbes, which include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. Scientists investigate these microbes to understand their biology, how they interact with humans, animals, and the environment, and their roles in health, disease, and ecosystems. This research helps develop vaccines, antibiotics, and other treatments, as well as methods to prevent infections and improve sanitation. By studying microbes, researchers can uncover how they function, evolve, and impact our world, contributing to advances in medicine, agriculture, industry, and environmental management.
