MSc in Biology in Biological Chemistry

Drawing a clear boundary between chemistry and biology is nearly impossible today given explosive growth of technologies for synthesizing large organic molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, and complex carbohydrates. In the future, scientists investigating the foundation and processes of life will increasingly have to master chemical methods, including organic synthesis, NMR, and chromatography, and biological techniques such as growing bacteria, gene cloning, monoclonal antibody technology, and enzymology, to create molecules needed to test their biochemical hypotheses.
