Microbial Biofilms Role in Human Infectious Diseases

Dr. Mukesh Kumar Yadav is working as Professor at the Department of Microbiology, Central University of Punjab, Bathinda, India. Prof. Yadav has more than 15 years of research experience in medical microbiology, particularly in microbial biofilms and host-microbial interactions. Prof. Yadav has published over 110 research articles, garnering more than 7,000 citations, and has authored five books with Elsevier. He has completed eight major research projects funded by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), the Department of Science and Technology (DST), and the National Research Foundation (South Korea). Prof. Yadav's research area focuses on host-microbial interactions and microbial biofilms, including pathogenic and commensal bacteria in the gut. Prof. Yadav's lab is working on understanding microbial biofilms and infections caused by the biofilm mode of growth, as well as antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and identifying suitable strategies to combat AMR and drug resistance. Understanding Commensal Bacterial Interaction and Dysbiosis of Gut Microbiota during Various Metabolic Disorders.
