    Microbiology, the department which deals with the microbes-diseases and its diagnosis has a history of 3 decades and more. To pen on the pioneer Microbiologist of Fr Muller Medical College was Mr B.N. Saralaya who set the ‘Micro’ laboratory in the year 1978. The Diploma in Medical Lab Technology (DMLT) course was started in the year 1979 when Mr Vittal Shetty took over the charge. Over a period of years, the laboratory was developed by various Microbiologists such as Mrs Shubada, Mrs Hilda Pinto and Dr Kavitha Dinesh, to name a few. When the long cherished dream of Medical College became fruitful in the year 1999, a well established department of Microbiology was set under the able guidance of Dr Govind Bhat and later by Dr Kavitha Dinesh.
