Divisional ProfileMembers of the division of Medical Microbiology continue to provide diagnostic services, undergraduate and postgraduate medical student training, conduct research and provide training for science students interested in a research career. The composition of the Division is complex with staff drawn from the University of Cape Town, Groote Schuur Hospital and Red Cross Children’s Hospital and National Health Laboratory Service (NHLS). The microbiology diagnostic laboratories are located at Groote Schuur hospital, while the molecular research laboratories are located in the Institute of Infectious Diseases Building, Wernher Beit South, Health Sciences Campus. Aside from providing a full range of diagnostic services, the division is involved in clinical and diagnostic trials, investigating outbreaks of infection, and in defining the epidemiology of various infectious agents. Important areas of research focus on tuberculosis, bacterial antibiotic resistance, campylobacter infections and nosocomial pathogenes. A major effort is directed into developing novel vaccines and vaccine vectors. The division also has a highly cited site on the World Wide Web.
