Emerging themes include the study of microbial responses to environmental changes and their roles in biogeochemical cycles, reflecting a growing awareness of the impact of climate change on microbial ecosystems.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Mycology Studies:
While mycology remains a key area, traditional studies focusing solely on fungal taxonomy without a clear application or ecological context have diminished, as research increasingly seeks to integrate ecological and applied perspectives. - Epidemiological Studies of Non-Communicable Diseases:
Research linking microbial factors to non-communicable diseases has become less frequent, possibly due to a shift towards understanding infectious diseases and their implications for public health. - Basic Microbial Physiology:
The focus on fundamental studies of microbial physiology without direct applications or connections to health or environmental issues has waned, as applied research gains more traction. - Veterinary Microbiology:
While still relevant, the volume of research specifically addressing veterinary microbiology has decreased, possibly due to a broader focus on human health and zoonotic diseases.
