Developmental Biology
Definition of Developmental Biology as it relates to Science, Medicine, Pediatrics
Developmental biology is the scientific study of how organisms grow and develop, encompassing processes such as cell division, differentiation, and morphogenesis. As a field within pediatrics, it focuses on understanding these mechanisms during prenatal and postnatal development in infants, children, and adolescents. It bridges the gap between basic science research and clinical medicine, with implications for diagnosing and treating various pediatric conditions and diseases. This subcategory is tightly intertwined with other medical specialties within the broader categories of science, medicine, and pediatrics, making it a crucial area of study in the healthcare field.
