General Information
Biology is a discipline about life. This term is taken from the Dutch language “biologie”, which is also derived from the Greek language, bios (“life”) and logos (“science”). From long time ago until 1970, the term “ilmu hayat” is used, taken from Arabian language, literally means science of life.
The scope of discussion of biology is very wide and includes all the organisms. Some branches from biology are popular including botany, zoology and microbiology. Various aspects of life are discussed. Physical properties are learnt in anatomy, its function in physiology, behavior in etology (both evolutionary biology and palaeobiology), and inheritance of properties in genetics. Currently there is even astrobiology that learns about the possibilities about other being in other planets. The development of technology has enabled research in level of molecular building block of organism as well as biochemistry that supported through computational technique in bioinformatics.
Biology had been developed much in the 19th century, when scientists suggested that organism has the core characteristics. Biology is now become the core subject in schools and universities all over the world, with thousands of scientific writing are made every year in biological and medical journals. Healthcare service in the laboratory of Department of Biology includes service in reproduction (Andrology, Immunology Reproduction), Human Genetics, Cell and Molecular Biology.
