Introduction
Biotechnology presents substantial opportunities to greatly enhance the efficiency and productivity of biological processes. As a result, this innovative technology carries tremendous potential for completely transforming the genetic manifestation of specific traits in plants, animals, and humans. This includes the alteration of growth patterns, identification of diseases, and reduction of unwanted genetic traits. The consequences have far-reaching impacts on sectors like agriculture, healthcare, industry, and biodiversity conservation, and also play a significant role in facilitating global business and trade.
Careers In Biotechnology
- Biotechnologists are the counterparts of all the research institutes ranging from simple medical research centers to highly sophisticated laboratories involved in research on the human genome.
- Medical diagnostic laboratories are in great need of competent biotechnologists to carry out modern diagnostic tests ranging from DNA fingerprinting to antigen profile detection.
- Police and other forensic departments need biotechnologists to identify the culprits by using genome profiles and other biotechnology techniques of identification.
- The agricultural industry needs biotechnologists to improve quality, and quantity and even developing disease resistance in crops.
- Universities and educational institutes are in search of good biotechnologists who can be engaged as teachers as well as institutional research personnel
