Department of Microbiology The Department of Microbiology was founded in 2010, and is the product of a merger between two departments, one focused on microbiology, genetics, and immunology, and the other focused on physiology.

I was very sad to learn of the passing of Mike Volkert, brilliant scientist always with kind smile...obit is posted www.umassmed.edu/maps/
