Welcome to Molecular Biology Researches & Studies Institute

Molecular Biology Researches & Studies Institute is affiliated to Assiut University. It was established by the Ministerial Resolution No. (1643) issued on 7/11/2019, to be the first institute at the level of the Republic specialized in molecular biology researches and applications.

The institute's internal regulations were issued by the Ministerial Resolution No. (3083) on 7/31/2019 after the approval of the Basic Sciences Sector Committee at the Supreme Council of Universities.

The institute accepts graduates from faculties of the "Medical Sector - Science - Engineering - Agriculture - Veterinary medicine – Computer Science and Information".

The institute aims to:

1- Transfer and assimilate modern technologies in the field of molecular biology and

biotechnology.

2- Conduct advanced education, training and applied research by using the remarkable institute capabilities of featured research staff from various scientific and technical specialization

3- Prepare proficient scientific cadres capable of implementing ambitious research plan of the Institute and the University.

4- Develop and link applied scientific research to medical, agricultural, industrial and environmental fields to solve societal problems.

5- Provide technical consultations, feasibility studies and field participation to solve problems.

6- Exchange experiences with international institutes, scientific research centers and bodies that carry out similar activities

7- Organize conferences, seminars and scientific training courses.

The institute consists of three scientific departments:

• Department of Molecular Biology

It includes the following subspecialties: Molecular Microbiology - Molecular Immunology - Molecular Pathology - Molecular Diagnostics for Living Organisms - Molecular in vitro fertilization.

• Department of Applied Biostatistics and Bioinformatics

It includes the following subspecialties: Biostatistics - Bioinformatics.

• Department of Applied Biotechnology

It includes the following subspecialties: Microbial Biotechnology - Plant Biotechnology - Animal Biotechnology - Pharmaceutical Industries - Food and Dairy Biotechnology - Environmental Biotechnology.

These departments grant Diploma, Master and Ph.D. degrees, as well as work to qualify and prepare scientific trained cadres capable of implement the programs and projects of the Institute according to the research plans.

The institute also includes two units of a special nature; The Molecular Biology Research Unit and the Tissue and Stem Cells Research Unit, which include an integrated group of laboratories serving the different specialties of the institute.
