Our life is fine-controlled by various molecules in cells. Different types of molecules include macromolecules (e.g., protein, nucleic acid) and small molecules. In addition to classical views of central dogma, emerging roles of small molecules called metaboites have been recently proposed to significantly impact biological events. Metabolites are contiuously [...]

Chemical engineers are leading the way in providing answers to global challenges such as climate change, food security, and effective healthcare. On this [...]

Bioprocesses make use of microorganisms, animal cells, or enzymes to manufacture new products or complete a chemical transformation. Since ancient days, humans have been using microorganisms to transform biological materials for the production of alcoholic beverages and other fermented foods. Since then, bioprocesses have been developed for an enormous [...]

El objeto de la química, como disciplina científica, se enfoca en el estudio de la materia y de los cambios que ésta experimenta. En tanto disciplina científica, a la que se le atribuye la reputación de ser una ciencia complicada y aburrida. Esta reputación, bastante inmerecida, obedece al poco [...]
