By Inaaya Syeda Introduction Every heartbeat, thought, movement, and biological process depends on countless chemical reactions happening inside cells. The science that studies these reactions is called biochemistry. It merges biology and chemistry to explore the molecules and processes that enable living organisms to survive. Biochemistry helps answer basic questions about life: How do cells get energy? How is genetic information stored and used? How do enzymes control reac

By Syona Podila Imagine a world where tiny living things are modified by scientists to become new things and fix existing ones. This isn't science fiction anymore, it's Nanobiotechnology. Nanobiotechnology is a rapidly evolving field of science that has recently been taken in interest from the uprising of new technology and scientific developments. This new field of science is the application of nanotechnology which uses nano-tools and materials to study and apply to biologic
