In today's higher education context, which emphasizes comprehensive education, properly integrating ideological and political elements into professional courses to improve students' overall quality has become an important topic for teaching reform. The article examines the necessity and significance of ideological and political education in the biochemistry and molecular biology courses at medical colleges, and then elaborates on specific practical methods of ideological and political teaching in this course, such as teaching content design, method innovation, and teaching evaluation improvement. It demonstrates the implementation effect of ideological and political teaching in the biochemistry and molecular biology courses, as well as its positive impact on students' professional literacy, medical ethics, and social responsibility, through teaching practice, evaluation, and feedback. The research presented in this article has the potential to not only increase students' enthusiasm and understanding of professional information, but also to foster their medical ethics and social responsibility.
