Program Overview

Contribute to human advancement
Doctors and scientists endeavor each day, conducting research and experiments to use our genetic information to diagnose, treat, prevent, and cure illnesses. Our genes are instructions that tell your body how to make all the proteins it needs to survive and grow. By identifying each of these proteins, scientists hope to better understand how your body works, and what is happening when it doesn't work properly, leading to more effective medicines and treatments.

It is biotechnology that is credited for creating some of the wonders of the world.
