Background
Biochemists study the chemical processes that happen inside living things, like how our bodies break down food or how cells work. They use laboratory equipment and computers to run experiments, analyse results, and develop new medicines, food products, or industrial processes. Their work helps us understand diseases and create treatments that save lives.
