Winning Scholarships Tips

Biochemistry is a combination of chemistry and biological science. The program involves the study of DNA, proteins, enzymes, carbohydrates and monoclonal antibodies. For making a career in Biochemistry you should start with science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Math’s) in plus two/equivalent. Many universities and colleges offer degree in Biochemistry at various levels (graduation, post graduation). Students can also opt for research. Some medical colleges may also offer MD Biochemistry for MBBS graduates.
Biochemists may be employed in industry, hospitals, forestry, agriculture, dietetics, research institutes, education and associated areas, pharmaceutical, food, brewing, biotechnology and agrochemical companies. For funding the degree in Biochemistry, look below the list which consists of the information of various scholarships available in Biochemistry.

Scholarship Program: PhD Studentship in Biochemistry at Ghent University, Belgium
Employer: Ghent University
Level of Study: PhD
Subjects: Biochemistry
Country: Belgium
Scholarship Description: Inflammatory caspases are responsible for production of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 upon their recruitment into inflammasomes. They also mediate the non-conventional secretion of danger signals and induce pyroptosis, a pro-inflammatory cell death program that removes infected immune cells and prevents intracellular replication of bacterial pathogens. On the other hand, inflammatory caspases may dampen immune responses.
