Proposed Research Groups


- 2019/08/05

Genetic and Molecular Biology Research Group

Environmental Toxicology Research Group

Bio-Nanotechnology Research Group

Experimental Zoology Research Group

Genetic and Molecular Biology Research Group:

The proposal aims at making the group focus its research on providing original research contributions in the field of genes, genetic variability, molecules, and molecular biology, which include studying the structure and function of the large biomolecules vital to life, the expected changes in this regard, and their impact on the genetic material. The research group may conduct research, according to the views of its leader, in the functional and technical studies of biomolecules, cell biology, microbial genetics, biological molecules, molecular immunology, genetics, genetic disorders, cellular biology, and molecular research.

Environmental Toxicology Research Group:

The proposal aims at making the group focus its research on promoting knowledge and education related to environmental behavior and the effects of chemical pollutants in the environment, and to develop methods to measure, model and assess the exposure and toxicological risks of wildlife chemicals and their impact on humans. It also aims to contribute to the local, national and international initiatives, working to improve environmental health and support sustainable human activity. The group may also conduct research according to the views of its leader.

Bio-Nanotechnology Research Group:

The proposal aims at making the group focus its research on studying the microscopic nanoparticles and materials, and also the minerals and their chemical components in food and their relationship to the promotion of good health and the prevention of diseases and toxins. The group may also conduct research according to the views of its leader.

Experimental Zoology Research Group:

The proposal aims at making the group focus its research on studying physiology, and detecting the extent to which the molecular, functional and ecological variation of animal organisms are related to each other. The group may also conduct research according to the views of its leader.
