Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-001937

An interdisciplinary scientific field that applies chemical principles and techniques to study and manipulate biological systems. It involves the synthesis of small molecules to probe biological processes, develop new therapeutic agents, or create novel biological tools. This field often focuses on understanding molecular mechanisms at the interface of chemistry and biology.
