  • Nuray AbdullazadÉ™
    This course provides a clear and well-structured explanation of genetic engineering, starting from DNA structure and moving step by step to protein synthesis. The lectures are scientifically solid yet easy to follow, even for complex topics. It helped me strengthen my understanding of molecular biology fundamentals and see how theory connects to real biological processes. Highly recommended for biology and biotechnology students.

    it fine for the basic understanding but still can be improved, more diagram need and also if flowchart is added it will be good.
