It might sound bizzare that, though the Earth is covered with 71% of water yet, it is considered as […]
‘Pharmacogenomics Determining the right drug in the right dosage at the time for each and every patient’ Introduction – In Pharmacogenomics we study the role of genome in drug response. Pharmacogenomics is a wide-ranging term, which studies how all of the genes can influence response to drugs, it is to study the variations of DNA

CRISPR gene-editing technology is a molecular biological process by which the genome of an organism can be cut or edited. It can be also used to modify genetic systems and alter DNA sequences. CRISPR stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats, which are a simplified version of a bacterial defense mechanism that forms the

Instinctively parents are very much concerned about their child’s development and want to make certain that their child is developing or progressing properly. Some key developmental milestones are passed by children as they grow. Tracking these milestones helps us device how a child is progressing or developing, although it should be noted that different children

Altruism is keeping our Society together. “Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness”- Martin Luther King, Jr. We have already discussed the introduction about Altruism and now we will look at it in more detail. In altruism, the organisms benefit the
Transcription is the first step for protein synthesis. It is the process by which the m-RNA is synthesized and the information is transferred from nucleus to cytoplasm. Followed by Translation synthesizing polypeptide chain. Introduction – Transcription is the process were RNA is synthesised from DNA with the help of an enzyme called RNA polymerase (RNAP).
