The scientific discipline of ‘Microbiology’ is one of the most critical components of modern day science. Microbiology also constitutes an important section of study of applied biological science at various levels of graduate and post-graduate education. Therefore, study of microbiology offers tremendous potential in applied sciences. Department of Microbiology, Central University of Rajasthan came into existence in July 2012 under the School of Life Sciences. The mandates of the department are to undertake detailed post-graduate level teaching, enable students for national/international competitive examinations e.g. CSIR-UGC-NET and ICMR fellowship; GATE Exam etc. The department also envisions extending in the field of world-class microbiological research. The department boasts of highly qualified faculty with Ph. D. and Postdoctoral trainings from world-class institutes in India and abroad. The department of microbiology works in close association with other departments in School of Life Sciences and other departments like Environmental Science for giving best quality education to Integrated M. Sc. students. 

The department of Microbiology has infrastructure and facilities to take on an average 25 students for M. Sc. and Integrated M. Sc. program and 8 students for Ph. D. program every year.  The selections for admission were made on the basis of Central University Common Entrance Test (CUCET). The state of art classroom and laboratory for MSc and Research lab for Ph. D. students has been have been initiated in permanent campus building (4A3) in Bandarsindri campus.

7.  Dr. Deeksha Tripathi’s Laboratory:

Tuberculosis is still a formidable challenge, causing nearly about two million deaths each year. The causative agent of the disease, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is a highly flourishing intracellular pathogen. At present, the only vaccine against TB is live M. bovis, bacilli Calmette Guerin (BCG). It is however only effective in preventing the disease in children and does not confer protection against disease in adulthood or during reactivation of latent cases. As a consequence, persistent efforts are required for new TB vaccines and drug development.

Our research laboratory is interested in development of new immunotherapeutic interventions and vaccine candidates to combat tuberculosis. Our research is deciphering the molecular processes regulated by the pathogen to survive in hostile host environment.

 

8. Cell Molecular Biology of Infectious Diseases Laboratory (CMBID)

Principal Investigator: Dr. Vijay K. Verma

 Infectious diseases still cause a threat at a global and local level, particularly as disease agents can evolve so quickly. For example, bacteria such as Helicobacter pylori, Mycobacterium tuberculosis causes infections that can have devastating consequences particularly in developing countries and they also show resistance to many antibiotics. To eradicate these deadly pathogens, we first need to focus on phenomenon which helps these bacteria to survive in host that is persistent infection. 

Dr. Vijay Verma has started to establish Cell Molecular Biology of Infectious diseases laboratory at Department of Microbiology, School of Life Sciences, Central University of Rajasthan by using DST Inspire and UGC Start-Up grant. The research laboratory is exploring the different mechanism by which these bacteria escape the host’s natural immune systems and reside in host for a long time (persistent infection).

Research Area: Molecular Biology of Host-Pathogen Interactions, Phase Variation and Persistent Infection, Biofilm formation, DNA uptake machinery and Host Immune Evasion.
