BioChemistry
Overview
Biochemistry is a cutting-edge field of natural science in the 21st century that studies chemical reactions and material composition of living things at the molecular or atomic level. By exploring the basic principles of life phenomena through chemical methods, biochemistry serves as an important bridge between biology and chemistry.
