About Postgraduate Biology and Life Sciences

The Life Sciencesconsist of the areasof science which are concerned with the scientific study of living organisms, microorganisms, plants, animals, and human beingsas well as related areas like bioethicsand biology. The latter beingthe founding area of life sciences; technologicaladvances in molecular biologyand biotechnologyhave resulted in the development of specializations and new, sometimes interdisciplinaryfields.
