Philosophy of Biochemistry

The Philosophy of Biochemistry explores the fundamental concepts and implications of biochemical processes—the chemical reactions in living organisms. It examines questions like what it means to be "alive," the nature of life at a molecular level, and how biochemical knowledge impacts our understanding of biology and medicine. This field intersects with the Philosophy of Chemistry, which considers broader chemical principles, theories, and the implications of chemical understanding for other sciences. Essentially, it invites us to reflect on how the chemical processes that underpin life influence our understanding of existence, health, and the nature of living systems.
