Description

Medical microbiology is the study of biological tissues in a microscope, and how they relate to medical disorders or diseases. A medical microbiologist is a physician who interprets the results of laboratory tests in order to identify viruses, fungi, bacteria and parasites – the microbes that cause diseases. These microbes are studied for their risk of causing disease and their effect on the immune system.
