Microbiology is the study of bacteria, yeasts, and viruses at the protein and gene levels (molecular biology), the cell level (cell biology and physiology), and the microbial community level.
Microbiology is becoming increasingly important in science, medicine, industry, and society as we strive to control microbial pathogens in our hospitals and communities while utilizing an ever-expanding range of microorganisms in biotechnology industries.
