Microbiology is a core biological discipline focused on microscopic life forms including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microorganisms. A simple scoop of garden soil contains countless microbial species, often numbering in the millions. These tiny organisms significantly influence human and animal wellbeing, our ecosystem, and critical matters like food security, contagious illnesses, renewable energy sources, environmental science, and biological threats.
