Microbiology

The microbiology sector has seen huge development over the years to what it is now. You might be well aware that our earth’s surface consists of a huge microbial diversity and these wide microbial communities are present in all nooks of the earth. They offer several services to our environment. Without microbial communities, the whole earth will be a different place to live in. This is the reason microbiological research is so vital.

Microbiology is one of the very actively researched grounds, that deal with the study of microorganisms starting from the eukaryotic fungi to single celled and various cell cluster organisms. Various courses like B.Sc., M. Sc., M. Phil and Ph.D in subjects like Microbiology , Biotechnology and Molecular Biology, students are doing projects for their thesis. Excluding these, students from other courses including B. Tech, M. Tech courses in  Biotechnology , paramedical courses like  Pharmacy  (B. Pharm. and M. Pharm.) and even Medical are searching projects or thesis topics for microbiology. If you are thinking of starting a research or project work in microbiology, then you must be searching for a good topic. So we planned to make it somewhat simple and easy for you.

This article discusses about some of the top and current research topics on microbiology. Before coming to the lists of topics let’s have a brief discussion on some of the important and key tips that we should consider before finalizing a topic.

  • We should remain more focused on our investigation which will help us in planning a very clear experiment and in getting very useful and pertinent data.
  • We should choose a topic which will get easily manageable within the given time frame.
  • One of the best tips is to initiate by formulating a hypothesis and then confirming it.
  • The rate of success or failure depends on how well you are versed with the methodology.

The Road to Inclusive Crash Safety

Engineering Ph.D. Student Wins 2024 Grad Thesis SLAM

Neck injuries are a serious concern for all people involved in car crashes. Understanding how the human neck responds to impact may help us explain why some people are at increased risk.

Cori Espelien, a mechanical and aerospace engineering Ph.D. student, won the 2024 Grad Thesis SLAM on April 16 with her presentation on neck response during car crashes. Her research reveals the importance of considering muscle and sex differences in collisions, potentially leading to safer rides for females.

Espelien is spearheading a $1.2 million  Department of Transportation project under adviser and principal investigator Jason Forman, a research associate professor at the University of Virginia’s  Center for Applied Biomechanics . The project, currently in its third year, examines human neck responses in car accidents.

The Grad Thesis SLAM provides UVA doctoral students an opportunity to communicate their research in an engaging and understandable way for the general public. 

But the real challenge was cramming her research on the topic into just 180 seconds.

“My hands were shaking, and my heartrate was high at the start,” Espelien said. “But once I got the first sentence out, muscle memory from rehearsal carried the presentation through, regardless of how nervous I was!”

Mastering the Art

Communicating complex research topics in a matter of minutes is no easy task. In fact, Espelien said condensing her research was the most challenging step in the process.

“Distilling the scope of a dissertation to three minutes means entire sections of our work are not included at all,” she said. “So you have to pick the slivers that are most engaging.”

She also said that translating the jargon of niche fields into accessible language for the public was a “non-trivial” task.

“But it was a necessary exercise to communicate the core theme,” she said.

Espelien used a PowerPoint slide as a visual aid to accompany her presentation. 

The nine final contestants who competed in front of the audience in Alumni Hall were winnowed down from an original group of 18 competitors.

Initial Findings

Experimental data, which researchers use to model crash outcomes and improve safety standards, is lacking for females. Espelien’s work is geared towards closing this gap. 

The neck is full of muscles, so how stiff the neck is or how someone’s head moves in a crash can change based on muscle flexing.

Espelien used experimental testing databases that include volunteer responses and multibody computational models to explore flexed and relaxed muscle scenarios. She found that while female and male neck responses are similar when muscle flexing isn’t taken into consideration, adding this variable suggests there may be differences between male and female responses. 

Factoring in lower crash speeds also shows potential disparities in the data. By running experimental tests and computational simulations at multiple vehicle speeds, Espelien could determine how sensitive neck responses are. 

Though she has the data she needs for her thesis, Espelien still has further analysis and simulation work to complete. The results in her SLAM presentation represented a subset of her data — assessing the full picture of head and neck responses will take time. 

“With our current momentum, I believe there is a genuine and sustainable shift to increased safety for everyone,” Espelien said.

Celebrating Success

Biomedical engineering Ph.D. student Juliana Trujillo also advanced to the final stage of the Grad Thesis SLAM. 

Aleksandra Cwiek (cell biology) won second place and took the Audience Choice Award. Caroline Riedstra (microbiology, immunology and cancer biology) won third. 

The annual event is sponsored by  PhD Plus , a UVA-wide program that prepares doctoral students and postdoctoral scholars for future success, and the Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs.

Prior to studying at UVA, Espelien received her B.S. in biomedical engineering from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo.

She said she’s glad she competed. Being able to relate quick, clear information can make the difference in whether or not a research project finds support and gets funded. 

"Being able to share my research with general audiences is important to me because the public will always interface with engineering, and engineering will always interface with the public,” she said. “So it's important that there is a functional understanding between the two.”

Advisory committees for M.S. and MAB students must have a minimum of three faculty members, at least two of whom must be graduate faculty members in the Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics. Advisory committees for Ph.D. students must have at least four faculty members, one of whom must be from outside the department.

8.2. Degree Plan

M.S. and MAB students should file a degree plan by the end of the first semester of graduate study. Ph.D. students should file a degree plan before beginning the second year of coursework. The student and committee chair should work out a tentative plan, which will be discussed and approved by the full advisory committee. Degree plans must be approved and signed by the department Graduate Advisor.

8.3. Research Topic

Students working on M.S.-thesis and Ph.D. degrees should begin discussions on possible research topics with their committee chair and other commit¬tee members during the first semester in their program.

8.4. Thesis and Dissertation Proposals

Each M.S.-thesis or Ph.D. candidate will develop a formal written thesis or dissertation proposal. The proposal should include a title, a statement of the problem and rationale for the proposed research, a statement of objectives, hypotheses to be tested, a review of the literature, and a detailed description of the design, data analysis, and procedures of the study. Proposals must also include a conceptual framework that applies relevant economic theory to an analysis of the research problem.

After your committee chair approves your draft proposal, you need to distribute copies to the other members of your advisory committee. You should allow at least two weeks for the committee to read and evaluate the proposal prior to your proposal defense.

8.5. Proposal Defense

Under the direction of your committee chair, you should prepare an oral presentation of your thesis or dissertation research proposal. This presentation is expected to be formal and scholarly. Your presentation should include a clear rationale for the proposed research, a concise statement of objectives, hypotheses, and a detailed description of the design and methods of the proposed study.

You should be prepared to defend your proposal during a question-and-answer period following the oral presentation. When the questioning has concluded, the committee will determine whether you have satisfactorily completed the defense/exam. They will also decide what modifications, if any, should be made to the proposal before proceeding with the research. All committee recommendations at the proposal stage should be appropriately reflected in the final thesis or dissertation submitted in preparation for the Final Examination.

8.6. Preparation of Thesis or Dissertation

In preparing even the earliest draft of the thesis or dissertation, you should follow style conventions currently accepted by the department and Graduate School.
