Dr. Gary Kaiser is a professor of microbiology at The Community College of Baltimore County, Catonsville Campus located in Baltimore, Maryland. Dr. Kaiser has been teaching microbiology at C.C.C. since 1970. Dr. Kaiser received his B.S. in biology in 1968 and M.S. in microbiology in 1970, both from Northern Illinois University. Dr. Kaiser's Ph.D. in microbiology was earned in 1975 from the University of Maryland, College Park. His professional interest is host-microbe interactions, that is, the mechanisms microbes use to cause infection, the ways the body defends itself against infection through nonspecific defenses and immune responses, and the techniques we use to artificially help the body in its defense efforts. He also enjoys writing teaching tools for microbiology students such as his Lecture Guide and Performance Objectives for Microbiology, and his Laboratory Manual, The Grapes of Staph.
