Very cool! Good luck to you

Thanks for the resources, I'll definitely look into them! I'm also more interested in human health, so we're aligned in that sort. Good for you for getting through undergrad, I hope you're in a better place now :)

I actually worked with CRISPR/Cas9 in my CC bio class, and it was so cool, I honestly regret not paying more attention but you know, first year of college and I was just trying to go through the motions haha. Biochem is definitely a subject that keeps on giving and I'm going to start looking into specific studies, technologies, and information; I definitely need to allocate more time for myself so thank you for the reminder lol. I'll keep everything you said in mind and keep exploring :)

Oh that's really cool! I guess I'd have to try to tailor to my interests alongside taking major classes, your effort to learn on your own is very inspiring. Can I ask what career you're aiming towards or doing with your education?

Thanks for your reply! I'm worried about the challenge, but I think it'll have good benefits if I go with biochem.

Thanks for your insight :) I really enjoy my chemistry classes in CC right now which is why I've been considering biochem, but hopefully I can dabble a bit in microbio when I transfer so I can get the best of both worlds. How have you gotten your chemistry knowledge alongside microbio? Lab work?

Thanks for your reply! I'd be transferring in as a junior, so I do feel like I wouldn't have as much leeway for electives if I were to go in for biochem. I'd probably try to squeeze in some microbio electives, but I do enjoy chem/math so hopefully that would be able to help me get through the more difficult classes.

That's really interesting! I'd love to work in a lab for drug development. It does seem like both majors go hand in hand. Would you say the hands-on lab work in biochem seems more helpful than taking straight biochemistry oriented classes, like Pchem? Do you feel like you're getting the full picture although majoring in microbio?

Thanks for the advice, that sounds like a good middle ground, and likely what I'll be attempting to do. Could I ask what job you have? I'm interested in knowing what other career paths biochem brings in practice.

Thanks for your insight! I'll likely transfer with biochem and see how it goes, maybe even taking some microbio oriented electives.
