Medical biology

 ( Clinical Medicine ) 

Medical biology is a field of biology that has practical applications in medicine, health care, and laboratory diagnostics. It includes many biomedicine disciplines and areas of specialty that typically contains the "bio-" prefix such as:

• molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, biotechnology, cell biology, embryology,
• nanobiotechnology, biological engineering, laboratory medical biology,
• cytogenetics, genetics, gene therapy,
• bioinformatics, biostatistics, systems biology,
• microbiology, virology, parasitology,
• physiology, pathology,
• toxicology, and many others that generally concern life sciences as applied to medicine.

Medical biology is the cornerstone of modern health care and laboratory diagnostics. It concerned a wide range of scientific and technological approaches: from in vitro diagnostics In vitro diagnostics In vitro Diagnostics - EDMA to in vitro fertilisation, In vitro fertilization from the molecular mechanisms of cystic fibrosis to the population dynamics of HIV, from understanding molecular interactions to the study of carcinogenesis, from a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) to gene therapy.

Medical biology based on molecular biology, combines all issues of developing molecular medicine Molecular medicine - magazine into large-scale structural and functional relationships of the human genome, transcriptome, proteome and metabolome, with a particular focus on devising new technologies for prediction, diagnosis, and therapy.
