Session 5: Biophysical Chemistry

Biophysical chemistry is a physical science that uses the concepts of physics and physical chemistry for the study of biological systems. The most common feature of the research in this subject is to seek explanation of the various phenomena in biological systems in terms of either the molecules that make up the system or the supra-molecular structure of these systems.

Session 6: Amino Acids & Structural Biochemistry

Amino acid analysis is a biochemical technique used for determining the content of proteins, peptides and other biological or pharmaceutical preparations or amino acid composition. This is a suitable tool that determines the protein quantities and gives detail information regarding the amino acid composition and free amino acids. Many excellent and challenging contributions have been made by researchers in the field of amino acid analysis including chiral recognition.

Structural biochemistry is generally referred as biochemistry and this is a combination of biology, physics, and chemistry to study and to summarize some mutual principles in living organisms. The main aim of Biochemists is to describe mechanisms, molecular structure and chemical processes shared by all organisms, providing organizing principles that comprises of life in all its diverse forms.

Session 7: Neurophysics

Neurophysics (or neurobiophysics) is the branch of biophysics dealing with the nervous system including the brain, the spinal cord and the nerves. It is similar to neuroscience with a slight difference. Neuro physics covers a number of phenomena like cellular mechanism, molecular functions, brain function theories, as well as the different measures and techniques that influence these brain functions. Neuro physics is related to several other interdisciplinary branches of science including neural networks, neuroscience, neural coding, computational neuroscience, information theory, complex systems, and electrophysiology.

Session 8: Clinical & Forensic Biochemistry

Clinical biochemistry is a study of chemical and biochemical mechanisms of the body in relation to diseases mostly through the analysis of body fluid such as urine, blood and other body fluid. It is done by producing and validating the results of chemical and biochemical analyses. Biochemical tests are designed to detect these changes qualitatively or quantitatively compared to results from healthy people. Clinical biochemistry uses a broad range of analytical techniques for example, molecular diagnostics, measurement of enzyme activities, spectrophotometry, electrophoresis, the separation of molecules based on physical characteristics and immunoassays.

Forensic Biochemistry/Science is the utilization of science to criminal and civil laws. Forensic scientists collect, preserve & inspects experimental confirmation over the period of an investigation. While some forensic scientists reach to the crime scene to collect the proof themselves, others involve a laboratory part and execute their analysis on objects brought to them by other people.

Sessions 9: Pharmaceutical Biochemistry

Pharmaceutical Biochemistry consist the knowledge of biochemistry & chemistry and it also applies to the production of many useful drugs. The research activities of the Pharmaceutical Biochemistry consist of drug discovery and development process, providing an interface that brings together pharmaceutical chemistry, biochemistry, structural biology, computational chemistry and biopharmaceutics. It provides a complete understanding of all chemical processes occurring and associated with living cells at the molecular level that is related to drug action. It also helps to gain awareness on the adverse effects, molecular targets and characterization of drugs or other chemical substance within the living cells & organisms.

Session 10: Biophysical techniques

Biophysical techniques are a method to study the structure, properties, dynamics or function of biomolecules at an atomic or molecular level. They encompass a range of techniques including microscopy, spectroscopy, electrophysiology, single-molecule methods and molecular modelling.

Session 11: Metabolic Biochemistry

Metabolic Biochemistry is the process occurring in living cells to extract, convert and store energy from nutrients comprising of a complex network of chemical reactions within the a cell. The metabolic chemical reactions are carried out in a sequence called metabolic pathway with the help of enzymes. From here arise academic disciplines such as bioenergetics, Nutritional Biochemistry and clinical organic chemistry. The processing framework is the arrangement of science and strategies committed to complete investigation of the framework including the arrangement of particles that are metabolic intermediates and auxiliary metabolites, which can be found in a biological system.

Session 12: Nanotechnology & Bioengineering

Nanotechnology is manipulation of matter on an atomic, molecular, and supramolecular scale. Nanotechnology as defined by size is naturally very broad, including fields of science as diverse as surface science, organic chemistry, molecular biology, semiconductor physics, energy storage, microfabrication, molecular engineering, etc. The associated research and applications are equally diverse, ranging from extensions of conventional device physics to completely new approaches based upon molecular self-assembly, from developing new materials with dimensions on the nanoscale to direct control of matter on the atomic scale. Scientists currently debate the future implications of nanotechnology. Nanotechnology may be able to create many new materials and devices with a vast range of applications, such as in nanomedicine, nanoelectronics, biomaterials energy production, and consumer products.

Biological engineering or bio-engineering (including biological systems engineering) is the application of concepts and methods of biology (and secondarily of physics, chemistry, mathematics, and computer science) to solve real-world problems related to life sciences or the application thereof, using engineering's own analytical and synthetic methodologies and also its traditional sensitivity to the cost and practicality of the solution(s) arrived at. In this context, while traditional engineering applies physical and mathematical sciences to analyze, design and manufacture inanimate tools, structures and processes, biological engineering uses primarily the rapidly developing body of knowledge known as molecular biology to study and advance applications of organisms and to create biotechnology. This may eventually include the possibility of biologically engineering machines and 3D printing that re-order matter at a molecular scale.

Session 13: Gene Expression and Genetic Engineering

Gene expression is the procedure by which genetic commands are used to synthesize gene products. These products are usually proteins, which go on to perform essential functions as enzymes, hormones and receptors. Therefore, the thousands of genes expressed in a particular cell determine what that cell can do. Moreover, each step in the flow of information from DNA to RNA to protein provides the cell with a potential control point for self-regulating its purposes by regulating the amount and type of proteins it manufactures.

Genetic engineering denotes to the direct manipulation of DNA to alter an organism’s features in a particular way. Genetic engineering is the process of manually adding new DNA to an organism. The goal is to improve one or more new traits that are not already found in that organism. Genetic engineering is now a routine research tool with model organisms. Many organisms have been genetically modified for applications in agriculture, industrial biotechnology, and medicine.

Session 14: Biomechanics & Systems biology

Biomechanics is the study of the structure and function of the mechanical aspects of biological systems, at any level from whole organisms to organs, cells and cell organelles,[1] using the methods of mechanics. Biomechanics is closely related to engineering, because it often uses traditional engineering sciences to analyze biological systems. Some simple applications of Newtonian mechanics and/or materials sciences can supply correct approximations to the mechanics of many biological systems. Applied mechanics, most notably mechanical engineering disciplines such as continuum mechanics, mechanism analysis, structural analysis, kinematics and dynamics play prominent roles in the study of biomechanics. Usually biological systems are much more complex than man-built systems. Numerical methods are hence applied in almost every biomechanical study. Research is done in an iterative process of hypothesis and verification, including several steps of modeling, computer simulation and experimental measurements.

Systems biology is the computational and mathematical modeling of complex biological systems. It is a biology-based interdisciplinary field of study that focuses on complex interactions within biological systems, using a holistic approach (holism instead of the more traditional reductionism) to biological research.

Session 15: Gene therapy

Gene therapy is an experimental technique that uses genes to treat or prevent disease. In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient’s cells instead of using drugs or surgery. Although gene therapy is a promising treatment option for a number of diseases (including inherited disorders, some types of cancer, and certain viral infections), the technique remains risky and is still under study to make sure that it will be safe and effective. Gene therapy is defined by the precision of the procedure and the intention of direct therapeutic effects. Gene therapy is currently being tested only for diseases that have no other cures.

Session 16: Biochemistry in Cancer research

Biochemical pathways help a lot in understanding the cancer cells. The transforming nature of the cancer cells can be better understood through the biochemical program of quantitative and qualitative imbalance. Many institutions such as Mayo Clinic, University of Colorado and many more from USA are working in this field to bring out the challenging results.

Session 17: Animal Biochemistry

Animal Biochemistry is the study of various synthetic reactions going on in the body of animal for life. The exploration concentrate on animal’s natural chemistry profoundly pertinent to the comprehension of real parts of veterinary science and creature cultivation in order to comprehend the digestion system and capacity of creatures in well-being and sickness. Animal Biochemistry researches are also related to applied sciences such as animal nutrition, dairy science, pharmacology, animal physiology, animal genetics, clinical pathology, medicine and so on.

Session 18: Glycoproteomics and Protein Expression

Glycoproteomics is a special branch of proteomics that identifies, catalogs, and characterizes carbohydrate containing proteins after the completion of post-translational modification. Protein expression is the process in which proteins synthesis, regulation and modification occurs in living organisms. Analysis of wide range of structurally diverse proteins by genomic technologies and due to increasing complexity in disease targets, innovative approaches for the purification, expression and characterisation of recombinant proteins has increased over years.

Protein expression is the biotechnological procedure of generating a specific protein. It is achieved by the manipulation of gene expression in an organism such that it expresses large amounts of a recombinant gene. This contains the transcription of the recombinant DNA to messenger RNA (mRNA), the translation of mRNA into polypeptide chains, which are ultimately folded into functional proteins and may be targeted to exact subcellular or extracellular locations.

Session 19: Protein Engineering

Protein Engineering is the procedure of creating helpful proteins and it research happens into the comprehension of collapsing and acknowledgment for protein plan standards. Analysts will have further point by point learning on In vitro development of proteins, Aspects of Biocatalysis, Advances in designing proteins for biocatalysis, Protein Engineered Biomaterials and many subjects.
