Bacterial pathogenicity is the study of how bacteria cause diseases in susceptible hosts, including humans, animals, and plants. This research area focuses on understanding the mechanisms by which pathogenic bacteria invade and colonize their host, evade the host's immune response, and cause damage to host tissues. Researchers in this field study the molecular and cellular processes involved in bacterial pathogenicity, as well as the interactions between bacteria and their hosts. The goal of this research is to develop new strategies for preventing and treating bacterial infections and diseases.
