Involved in the testing of antimicrobials from natural products as well as synthetic materials that can lead to drug innovations and remediation strategies. The emergence of antimicrobial resistance is a global health problem. Hence solutions encouraging and facilitating the evolution of new antimicrobials are the necessity of the hour. Also new emerging & re- emerging infectious diseases are scrutinized with in depth analysis of the agents of infectivity, their molecular characterization and co-relation to severity of disease manifestations. Short term training programmes in basic clinical microbiology are offered.
