History
As one of the main disciplines among modern natural sciences, Molecular Biology and Genetics (MBG) aims to understand the life at molecular level both under normal and disease conditions. MBG offers a strong background in molecular biology, genetics, microbiology, cell biology, biochemistry and bioinformatics using modern technologies and working interdisciplinary. This interdisciplinary approach enables connection between important fields such as basic biology, medicine, food industry and pharmaceutics.
Our approach to education is not limited to formal lectures and laboratory courses as described in curriculum but, for volunteer students, also includes informal teachings about theory and cutting-edge techniques in our research laboratories about gene regulation, cancer biology, rare diseases, glycol-immunology, therapeutics, glycomics and proteomics.
Our target for our graduates, in addition to understanding the current knowledge and techniques in molecular life sciences, is to be able to identify current problems in this field and general, and generate solutions for them. This will enable them to contribute to defining and providing solution to the problems in different levels from conceptualization and producing solutions.
Our department was established in 2012 under Faculty of Life and Natural Sciences. Since then, our department has grown very fast including the number faculty, students and a well-equipped teaching and research laboratories.
