Abstract:
This research project aims to investigate the biochemical basis of metabolic disorders such as diabetes and obesity. Metabolic disorders are characterized by dysregulation of metabolic processes, leading to impaired glucose and lipid metabolism. Understanding the underlying biochemical mechanisms involved in these disorders is crucial for the development of effective prevention and treatment strategies. This study will employ a combination of experimental and computational approaches to unravel the complex interactions between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that contribute to metabolic disorders. The findings from this research will provide valuable insights into the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders and may lead to the identification of novel therapeutic targets.
