biochemist
Studies cellular chemistry
A biochemist is a scientist who studies the chemical processes and substances that occur within living organisms.
The field bridges biology and chemistry, examining molecules like proteins, DNA, and enzymes to understand how life works at the molecular level.
Biochemists developed the COVID vaccine.
