This presentation discusses the intersection of biotechnology and medical science. It explains that biotechnology involves using living organisms to develop useful products, and has advanced areas like drug development, nutrition, agriculture, and environmental protection. Medicine involves diagnosing and treating disease. The presentation then outlines how biotechnology has contributed to improvements in medicine, including producing drugs and therapeutics through genetic engineering, enabling more accurate disease diagnosis and detection of genetic predispositions, and facilitating gene therapy, pharmacogenomics, genetic testing, and targeted drug delivery. Specific biotechnology applications in medicine discussed include monoclonal antibodies, DNA probes, and vaccines.
