Ph.D. in Animal Biochemistry studies molecular and biochemical processes in animals, such as metabolism, protein synthesis, enzymology, and cell signaling. The program typically lasts 3 to 5 years and includes advanced study in biochemistry, molecular biology, and physiology, as well as significant laboratory research. Students examine the biochemical mechanisms that govern animal health, growth, reproduction, and illness. Nutrition, genetic expression, metabolic diseases, and biotechnological applications are some possible topics. Graduates are prepared to work in academia, pharmaceutical businesses, veterinary research, or biotechnology, helping to promote animal health, nutrition, and the development of novel therapeutics for livestock and companion animals.
