Biochemistry (BSc)

Biochemistry operates at the critical intersection of biology and medicine, investigating the fundamental molecular processes that sustain life. From single-celled organisms to the complex systems within humans, every cellular function is governed by biochemical interactions. Mastery of these processes provides the necessary insights to understand the evolution of life and develop therapeutic interventions for chronic conditions.

Molecular and Systemic Exploration

The curriculum provides a multi-level analysis of biological systems, reflecting the specialized research strengths of the institution:

• Molecular Level: Investigating the structure and function of proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids that drive cellular activity.
• Cellular Level: Analyzing how biochemical pathways regulate cell signaling, energy production, and replication.
• Organ System Level: Examining the integration of biochemical processes across complex physiological structures.
• Disease Mechanisms: Gaining insights into the molecular basis of common conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and obesity to inform treatment development.
