This group collects the Life Sciences subcategory's members whose defining work concerns biochemistry: the chemical processes and enzymes inside living cells, spanning the biochemists who mapped metabolic pathways to the structural biologists who resolved the shapes of proteins. It is kept apart from Genetics And Molecular Biology, whose members study heredity and the genome specifically rather than cellular chemistry in general.
