Genetics and Cellular Biology
Overview
Genetic engineering and cellular biology are rapidly expanding fields in biology.
Genetic engineering is a defined method for producing genetic changes in a variety of organisms in the laboratory.
Cellular biology is a field that studies all aspects of gene regulation, protein trafficking, cell physiology and apoptosis.
A large number of industrial companies and many research laboratories use genetic engineering and cell biology techniques in their work. Job opportunities are numerous and growing in number. Students with training in genetic engineering and cellular biology may be employed in diverse laboratory settings, including:
- Plant breeding
- Insecticide development
- Pharmaceutical production
