Who is the father of modern bacteriology?
Robert Koch
Bacteriology is the branch of microbiology that studies bacteria and the diseases they cause.
German physician Robert Koch identified the bacteria causing anthrax, tuberculosis (1882) and cholera, and gave Koch's postulates linking a specific microbe to a specific disease.
For this work he is called the father of modern bacteriology; Von Baer is linked with embryology, R. Misra with Indian ecology and Edward Jenner with vaccination.
Hence, Robert Koch.
