The Microbes in Health & Diseases Research Interest Group aims to foster collaboration across departments and faculties at KCL to explore the multifaceted role microbes play in health and disease. It includes 50+ research groups across the Faculty of Life Sciences & Medicine (FoLSM), the Faculty of Dentistry, Oral & Craniofacial Sciences (FoDOCS), the Faculty of Natural, Mathematical & Engineering Sciences, and clinicians at King’s College Hospital and Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Trust. Member research groups are conducting critical research on: viral-host and bacteria-host interactions; fungal pathogens; prevention strategies including antimicrobial and vaccine development; diagnostics; host-microbiome interactions; and microbe-associated immunopathology.
