      Hi meg,

      I study proteins and how they form networks of interactions in order to do all the work that’s required inside a cell – from holding the cell together to metabolising food to protecting DNA and making more proteins. All these biochemical reactions are the smallest biological processes, because they are done by lots of tiny molecules inside cells!

      🙂
