Biochemistry focuses on the interconversion of compounds in the many complex reactions of life, on the mechanisms whereby enzymes catalyze and regulate these reactions, and the function and structure of the molecular components of living organisms.

Biochemistry researchers are tackling exciting questions using interdisciplinary approaches and advancing the frontiers of research in both the basic life sciences as well as in applied field such as medicine and biotechnology.
