Popis: The current Special Issue entitled “Highlights of Ukrainian Molecular Biosciences” is dedicated to presenting recent contributions in the areas of biochemistry and biophysics, molecular biology and genetics, molecular and cellular physiology, and physical chemistry of biological macromolecules made by researchers either currently working in Ukraine or those who have obtained their training in Ukrainian institutions. Obviously, such a collection can present only a small sample of relevant studies, making the editorial task a particular challenge, as inevitably many deserving research groups were missed. In addition, we are greatly sorrowed that some of the invitees were unable to contribute due to the continued bombardments and military attacks perpetrated by Russia in Ukraine since 2014, and especially in 2022. This Introduction is also intended to provide a broader context for understanding of Ukraine's decolonization struggle, both in science and on the battlefield, and outlines suggestions for the global scientific community.
