Masters degrees in Microbiology, General: A program that focuses on the scientific study of unicellular organisms and colonies, and subcellular genetic matter and their ecological interactions with human beings and other life. Includes instruction in microbial genetics, cell biology, cell physiology, virology, pathogenic microbiology, environmental microbiology, immunology, biostatistics, bioinformatics, and laboratory methods including microscopy.
The study of cellular and physiological microbiology addresses fundamental questions such as: How do bacterial activities coordinate at higher levels than individual transcription units (whole cell regulation)? How do the hundreds of multigene networks in bacteria interact with each other? What genes are expressed during nutrient limitation and how do bacteria compensate during nutritional stress? What biochemical approaches are now available to facilitate...
Scientists working in this area address questions such as: How are bacterial genes of significant biological importance organized in transcriptional units (operons) and expressed in bacteria? New students learn the techniques to clone entire bacterial genomes, probe for genes of interest, and sequence these genes using the latest molecular techniques. They also learn how to effectively use genetic tools such as transposon mutagenesis and a variety...
