Microbial ecology is the study of microorganisms in the environment. This sounds rather simple at first, but actually encompasses complex interactions with the physical and chemical environment, inter- and intraspecies interactions, and dispersal and survival strategies. Another important aspect of microbial ecology is the methods used to study microorganisms in the environment. The revival and growth of microbial ecology as a field has been dependent upon advances in molecular biology that have greatly improved our ability to identify, quantify, and track microorganisms. We will examine the role of microbial communities in the environment and the human body by exploring the many contributions of female microbiologists to microbial ecology.
