Abstract

Biotechnology, a multidisciplinary field, has evolved rapidly in recent decades and is poised to reshape industries, healthcare, and agriculture. This abstract provides an overview of the diverse applications of biotechnology and its profound impact on our daily lives. Biotechnology encompasses a wide range of techniques and tools, including genetic engineering, genomics, and cell culture, to manipulate and harness living organisms' biological processes for human benefit. In the realm of healthcare, biotechnology has revolutionized the development of therapeutic drugs, vaccines, and diagnostics. Genetic engineering techniques, such as recombinant DNA technology, enable the production of biopharmaceuticals, while advances in genomics facilitate personalized medicine, allowing for tailored treatments and disease prevention strategies. The industrial sector benefits from biotechnology through the production of enzymes, bio-based materials, and biofuels, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and promoting green and renewable solutions. Additionally, biotechnology is essential in the development of novel bioinformatics tools, enabling data-driven decisions and discoveries in various scientific fields.
