INTRODUCTION
The knowledge of the roles of biochemistry and biochemists will go a long
way in defining the input that can be made to help pursue the vision and
fulfill the mission of RMRDC.
Biochemistry cuts across virtually all facets of life, as it has to do with the
study of every living thing. Biochemistry studies the nature of chemical
components of living matter and the chemical substances produced by
living things (plants and animals). It studies the molecular basis of life.
The following are areas where biochemistry functions;
Nutrition
Pharmaceutical/ Clinical/ Public health
Agriculture
Food and brewing industries
Medicine, etc.
the country. Studies of these raw materials cut across their use in
agriculture, food industries, pharmaceutical industries etc.
Having established a basis by which the council runs, I move ahead to
show the relevance of biochemistry and biochemists in bringing the
councils mission and vision to actualization.
