The term 'LIFE Sciences' include fields of science that involve the scientific study of living organisms, including microorganisms, plants, animals and human beings.
Life Sciences is one of the fastest developing domains with an explosion in knowledge and breakthrough discoveries. Hence, it has become a major thrust area for the global giants in the information industry and also for corporates involved in research and development of new products. Medicine, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology constitute the key components of this domain. Since these domains cater to the lives and survival of humans, they are subject to stringent regulatory mechanisms requiring specialized skills in knowledge processing, with superior quality and adherence to global standards.
Recent advances in life sciences—from vaccines to new medical devices, from biofuels to increased food production, to the protection of ecosystems–illustrate the importance of life sciences to the health and wellbeing of society and the environment.
Various courses are available all over the Globe that comprises 'Life Science' studies . Major Life Science courses are as follows
The field of Microbiology covers many others such as Bacteriology, Virology, Mycology and Parasitology and medical microbiologists identify the agents of infectious diseases & devise ways to combat them.

Modern medicine is marching along in great big strides, riding on the incredible success that biochemistry has enjoyed for about a century now. This interdisciplinary study reduces biological processes (reproduction, aging, genetics) to their chemical identity for easier comprehension. It's not all internal though; external environmental influences have large effect on all living things and biochemists must tackle that mystery as well. The biochemist must embrace a large field of study at both micro-levels (studying carbohydrates, enzymes and fats and their functions at the cellular level) and macro-levels (studying respiration, metabolism) and more or less everything else related to the biological process.
