Payal's Journey

  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 put i

I recently graduated with my B.Sc. honors degree in Agriculture and I had always dreamt of being a scientist right from my childhood. But the gravity of my interest progressed into my passion studying biology in my high school and Plant science during my graduation. Exploring various areas of scientific studies during my graduation doing practical and being curious about amusing topics from my favorite subject Plant Science has always kept me inspired and motivated as basic requirement at personal level for becoming a scientist is the Curiosity.  I am now making an image what research is really like, what do scientist do and what is the depth of this eminent career.  For developing my Research skills I recently joined an online internship at Biolim Centre for Science and Technology which have the following objectives and is a great opportunity to upscale my knowledge and skills required to enter research as my profession. To provide scope on understanding, choosing and developing resea
