Biochemical pathways

The Biochemical Pathways chart originally developed in 1965

The Biochemical Pathways chart was originally developed in 1965 by Dr Gerhard Michal to give an overview of the different biochemical processes the might be occurring in living cells. Dr Michal has said, “I have always been fascinated by enzymes and biochemical pathways. At the start of my career I was interested in research that would allow us to develop diagnostic tools. The need for an overview of the scientific knowledge of the time led to the development of the first Biochemical Pathways. Our knowledge over the last 50 years has grown exponentially and I hope that Biochemical Pathways will continue to expand with our ever increasing knowledge.”
