7th season of SOLE competition

With its inauguration, the School of Biotechnology at Nile University hosted the 7th Season of Science Operation Leaders in Egypt (SOLE) competition in February 2020 on its own premise. SOLE competition is the biggest National Biotechnology competition in Egypt. The competition is a 1-day event comprised of several sub-competitions: scientific debate, case study analysis, presentation skills, and a poster session.

Genetics and Histology Lab

This lab is equipped with the latest light microscopes. To develop students’ technical skills and enable them to observe different specimens. Students take their practical session from both genetics and histology modules in this lab, where they stain, examine histological and pathological slides, and perform karyotyping. The courses that are served by the Immunology and Virology lab: (BIO-204)

Biophysics Lab

Lab 235 (Biophysics Lab) for Biophysics This lab has all equipment needed to conduct basic physics experiments, such as the laws of motion, energy transfer, special relativity, time dilation, fluid mechanics, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, circuits, semiconductors, statistical physics, magnetism, electromagnetism, and mechanical waves. The courses that the biophysics lab serves: (PHY 102)

Molecular Biology Lab

This lab is equipped with advanced equipment such as a PCR machine, gel electrophoresis machine and ELISA reader. This teaching lab performs a broad range of experiments including DNA and RNA extraction, running both agarose and polyacrylamide gels. Gene identification and extraction. In addition, some forensics techniques such as microsatellites and variable number tandem repeat. The blend

Nanotechnology Lab

The nanoscience lab provides hands-on experience in advanced material science technology. Students acquire hands-on experiments that combine learning different methodologies for material fabrication and characterization techniques. We teach our students the key concepts of nanoscale phenomena that make nanoscience and nanotechnology one of the most exciting fields of research today. The focus of

Microbiology Lab

Lab 366 (Microbiology lab) for Organic Chemistry, Microbiology & Microbial Physiology The microbiology lab has microscopes, an autoclave, an incubator, and Bunsen burners. The microscopes help students visualize microorganisms, such as bacteria, which they previously stained. In addition, they learn what fungi and algae look like under the microscope. They also learn how to plate and count

PICO visit

On March 29th, undergraduate students of biotechnology, together with the vice dean Dr Asmaa Abushady and the teaching assistants visited PICO for Modern Agriculture company to get introduced to the applications of Green Biotechnology, a branch of biotechnology which they studied at the university. 

NU and Ain Shams University launch a biotechnology incubator

In collaboration with Ain Shams University, Nile University acquired a biotechnology incubator grant, which allows both universities to fund young talented biotechnology students to develop their own startups. Based on this recent incubator, a nationwide pitch competition was held in collaboration with NilePreneurs Initiative at the 8th SOLE competition 2022, the winners of which were given incubator seats where they can transform their own projects from the lab bench into startups.

Biochemistry Lab

Lab 365 (Biology Lab) for Biology and Biochemistry The biology lab encompasses equipment that serves in the understanding of students to different principles in Biology and Biochemistry. These include ELISA assay, PAGE assembly, glucose colorimetric assay, Hill reaction, and enzyme catalysis. The courses that the biology lab serves: (BIO-101) Introductory Biology (BIO-102) Biology (General cell &
