Biochemistry  is a branch of science that studies the chemical processes and molecules that make up living organisms. Biochemists in this department examine the structures and functions of biomolecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids, and how they interact with each other to sustain life. The Biochemistry Department is an interdisciplinary field that integrates concepts from biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics to understand the chemical basis of life. 

The ultimate goal of the Biochemistry Department is to improve our understanding of the molecular basis of diseases and to develop new treatments and therapies. Biochemists in this department investigate the mechanisms of diseases at the molecular level, including cancer, diabetes, and neurological disorders. Research in the Biochemistry Department is also focused on developing new treatment modalities. 

      Overall, the Biochemistry Department plays a critical role in advancing our understanding of the fundamental chemical processes that sustain life and developing new ways to improve human health and well-being.
