History of Medical microbiology

The medical microbiology had its origin in the year 1888 when the Pasteur Institute in Paris (France) was established. Robert Koch became the Director of the Institute For Infective Diseases. Both Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch infused the spirit and interest to gain knowledge in medical microbiology to the countrymen of America and Europe. The medical microbiology deals with the aspects of infection, the causative agents of infection and the diseases due to infection. Following the establishment of Germ Theory of Diseases by Pasteur, innumerable infectious diseases that haunt the human population were discovered. For most of these infectious diseases, the drugs and vaccines have been found.
