Biomolecular science deals with the study of materials and substances that make up living organisms, genetic materials, proteins and small molecules. It uses chemistry techniques to understand how biological systems work at a molecular level; study genes and proteins and understand their role, function and interactions in the body; develop novel therapies to cure disease and identify novel biomarkers and design methods to diagnose diseases. Advances in biomolecular science have led to major developments in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, disease diagnostics, genetic engineering and medicine. Biosensors that can detect toxins in minutes. Medicine tailored to individual patients. Materials that capture carbon dioxide molecules before they get to the atmosphere. Biomolecular science is behind all these breakthroughs.
