Biology (M)

The Department of Life Sciences from the Faculty of Sciences and Technologies of the University of Coimbra, emerged from the aggregation of former departments (Anthropology, Biochemistry, Botany and Zoology). The compartmentalization of scientific knowledge, characteristic of classical science, has been disappearing, giving way to interdisciplinary, knowledge sharing and scientific skills. The merger of four departments allowed creating, a department where this spirit of sharing is present, and where LIFE is studied and taught at various levels.

The scientific focus of The Department of Life Sciences is based on tree axis: 1. Undertake and promote innovative scientific research and excellence, either in fundamental science or applied. 2. Ensure the best conditions, intellectual environment and educational capabilities so that students and researchers can study Life Sciences.b3. To contribute to strength the interdisciplinary research of the Faculty of Sciences and Technology and ensure its international relevance and engagement with society.

Biochemistry has as main objective the description of the structure, organization and functioning of living matter in molecular terms. Its field of action can be divided into three main areas: study of metabolism (chemical reactions occurring in living matter), the structural chemistry of the components of living matter (the relationship with the biological function of living matter), molecular genetics (study of substances, processes, storage and transfer of biological information.
