Biotechnology has made rapid advances particularly during the past three decades.  Using living organisms (or the knowledge derived from these organisms) to develop new products that are anticipated to improve human lives, this technology has become increasingly important in various sectors such as healthcare, agriculture and environment.  The knowledge on living organisms accumulated through centuries-long investigations, aided by physical techniques such as optical microscopy developed in the 17^th century, and X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance and electron microscopy in the 20^th.  Concomitantly, biology gradually turned cellular and then molecular.  Cellular processes are now understood in terms of molecular interactions based on the laws of physics and chemistry.

Having a combined background in physics (in my education) and molecular biology (in my research) I intend to contribute to the teaching and learning of science in a unified format.  The website will contain current advances in biotechnology and the underlying molecular (structural) biology.  In addition, content dealing with basic physical, mathematical and statistical principles should help understand biomacromolecular functional dynamics.
