Molecular biology sits at the core of modern biomedical science, concerned with the mechanisms by which genetic information is stored, expressed, and regulated in living cells. Understanding how DNA is copied, how genes are switched on and off, how proteins are made and modified, and how these processes go wrong in disease is fundamental to contemporary medicine and to the development of new treatments.
