My goal in this essay is to support the claim that the market is in fact not sitting on a cure for a disease‚ that according to the CDC‚ nearly 26 million people are diagnosed with in the United States today. Though cure research and discovery can often be prolonged for many reasons‚ the complexity of the disease‚ difficulties in discovering cures‚ and the general motive of pharmaceutical companies are three reasons why I believe the market is not sitting on this cure.

INTRODUCTION: Molecular biology began more than 40 years ago with Watson and Crick‘s discovery of the double helix structure of deoxyribonucleic acid DNA and that continued with Cohen and Boyer’s. This discovery of the techniques that called as biotechnology nowadays has had an enormous impact on the nature of research and development. This technique has potential to generate great benefits in improved of human life by through of many applications which play role in improvements of medicine‚ agriculture

Arzaga‚ Eunisse C. BSA1FHC APPLICATION OF BIOTECHNOLOGY Medicine In medicine‚ modern biotechnology finds applications in areas such as pharmaceutical drug discovery and production‚ pharmacogenomics‚ and genetic testing (or genetic screening). Pharmacogenomics (a combination of pharmacology and genomics) is the technology that analyses how genetic makeup affects an individual’s response to drugs. It deals with the influence of genetic variation on drug response in patients by correlating gene expression or single-nucleotide

One common misconception is that animals are so different from humans that research is unconnected. However‚ one of the reasons why animal research is so essential in scientific discovery is because animals actually share very similar biologically. We share the same organs and these bodily processes work the same way in both humans and animals‚ so it is important to see how certain treatment‚ drugs and diseases affect animals because
