Molecular Biology
Overview
Molecular Biology focuses on the molecular mechanisms that underpin cellular processes. It examines how genetic material (DNA and RNA) is transcribed, translated, and regulated within cells. This field explores how molecular interactions influence cell function, development, and disease, providing insights into genetic expression, mutation, and the molecular basis of various health conditions.
