Welcome
The University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Bacteriology makes fundamental discoveries in microbiology, develops practical applications that affect lives, and provides superior training for the next generation of microbiologists. This training allows undergraduate and graduate students to begin careers that contribute to the world in many ways — in research, teaching, industry, entrepreneurship, scientific writing and editing, and government service. Our community is as a vibrant place to learn, teach, and conduct research; a place rich in opportunity, ideas, creativity, and resources; and a place where people can flourish and discover their own potential.
