The state paid great attention to modern sciences, so the state and Egyptian universities were interested in establishing many research centers, departments and laboratories specialized in that scientific and research field. Also, the tremendous scientific development and the rapid technological progress in various fields of science and knowledge is visible to all. In this context, Assiut University is considered one of the leading and pioneering strongholds of science always to provide new sciences and the constant pursuit of scientific excellence, through a distinguished elite of university faculty members who are always keen To follow all that is new and distinguished in various scientific fields, to provide new and rare scientific disciplines at the university to maintain academic excellence and scientific leadership that is achieved thanks to its students.
From this point of view and within the framework of the keenness of the senior management of Assiut University to be proactive in providing and providing all the capabilities that confirm its leadership in all fields, the Assiut University administration took a decision to establish an institute for research and studies of molecular biology, to be one of the beacons of new sciences that illuminate the sky of knowledge at Assiut University To work to strengthen research capabilities and develop analysis skills and scientific innovation capabilities, as well as to identify societal problems and work to solve them, especially in Assiut Governorate and Upper Egypt as well, to ensure that the needs of the labor market are met by specialists in this field, and to strive towards achieving the goals of Assiut University in providing new and modern sciences for graduate students. A new generation of scientists and innovators works to raise the name of Egypt high and seeks to advance the future of our dear homeland in line with the strategic vision of the Egyptian state 2030. The efforts of the university's senior management culminated in the issuance of Ministerial Resolution No. 1634 of 2019 establishing the Institute for Research and Studies of Molecular Biology as a specialized institute for postgraduate studies in the field of science This is as a development of the activity of the Molecular Biology Research Unit established in 1996
The institute is one of the specialized research institutes at Assiut University, which is unique in studying the applications of molecular biology and biotechnology as well as applied bioinformatics to develop human and veterinary medical research, as well as research in basic, agricultural, pharmaceutical, computer and information sciences. Since the beginning of its establishment, the Institute's management has been keen to attract a distinguished elite of postgraduate students as the nucleus of the Institute's research activities to graduate competitive cadres that meet the needs of the developed labor market. In this context, the Institute has worked on the rapid transfer and absorption of modern technologies in the field of molecular biology and biotechnology with the optimal use of the capabilities of the Institute in education, training, research and practical application. And that is under the supervision of a constellation of distinguished elements of scientists and researchers at Assiut University from all concerned faculties to provide all the required scientific and technical disciplines within the framework of a multidisciplinary structure and colleges.
The institute grants diplomas, master's degrees, and doctorate of philosophy, in addition to preparing scientific cadres capable and trained to implement the programs and projects of the research plan of the institute, and other institutes and colleges, inside and outside the university. It also develops and links applied scientific research in the medical, animal, agricultural, industrial and environmental fields to solve societal problems. As well as providing technical consultations, feasibility studies and field participation to solve problems.
The institute's work philosophy is based on providing and facilitating the necessary means for scientific openness and exchanging experiences with institutes, centers and scientific bodies locally and globally, through organizing conferences, holding panel discussions and specialized scientific training courses in cooperation with various international scientific bodies.
