Bacterial pathogenesis is the study of how bacteria cause disease in humans, animals, and plants. This field of research aims to understand the mechanisms by which bacteria invade host cells, evade the immune system, and cause damage to tissues. Researchers in this area investigate the molecular and cellular processes involved in bacterial infections, including the production of virulence factors, communication between bacteria and the host, and host responses to infection. The ultimate goal of bacterial pathogenesis research is to develop new strategies for the prevention and treatment of bacterial infections.
