Hi.. my daughter is interested in pursuing Molecular Medicine in her undergraduation. I hear that there are quite less chances of a career growth in that field and that the salaries are quite less. Is there a chance that he can take up some other branch like Biotechnology and then pursue Molecular Medicine as a post graduate course? Please suggest

Ans: Hi,
As you have mentioned, the job prospects after completing the course seem limited. Given that the course is relatively new, it's unclear where she would fit in - whether it be in biochemistry, biotechnology, microbiology, or pharmacology. Even pursuing a Masters degree may be challenging in India.
