Right from my birth I had travelled various states in India due to transferrable nature of my father's job. So I love travelling and exploring new places, people and culture. Being a biology student I had always felt the connection to nature and plants and always had a keen desire to understand their function and relationship with us to the depth. I grew up aspiring to become a good Researcher and Scientist. With time my interests developed and I chose to pursue this profession as my career. Unlike many of the professionals in the sector, my passion came not from the security of great career prospects but from an earnest desire to help less privileged individuals and farmers across my country as well as the globe. Through my graduation in B.Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture journey I was exposed to various fields and lives of people dependent on this sector during my RAWE Internship....
THE FUTURE OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY Introduction : Molecular biology is the branch of biology dealing with the understanding of the molecular basis of biological activities in and among cells. It includes molecular pathways, interactions, Mechanisms of action, synthesis, and modification of biological molecules. Looking back, this field, originally came up to test the hypotheses on the mechanism of Genetic Inheritance and the structure of genes. The dominance of molecular biology began some seven decades ago with the discovery of the structure of DNA (1953, Watson and Crick with the help of crystallographic data of Rosalind Franklin). It jump-started Research into molecular biology. Today the field has rapidly developed with the introduction of omics studies such as genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics to the next level of study and analysis. In the journey of growth of the Molecular biology field from the discovery of DNA to DNA Editing Technology, there has been a lot of effort p...
