Molecular biology plays a crucial role in understanding the fundamental mechanisms of life at the molecular and cellular levels. In the context of traditional medicine, molecular biology provides powerful tools to investigate how natural compounds and traditional remedies interact with biological systems. This session at the Traditional Medicine World Congress 2026 will explore the application of molecular biology techniques in validating and advancing traditional and integrative medicine.
The session will cover topics such as gene expression, molecular signaling pathways, genomics, proteomics, and biomarker discovery related to traditional therapies. Discussions will also highlight how molecular insights support drug discovery, efficacy evaluation, and safety assessment of herbal and natural products. By bridging traditional knowledge with modern molecular science, this session aims to strengthen evidence-based research and promote innovative approaches in global healthcare.
