Crop Science Students at Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Gain Advanced Biotechnology Skills

SANA’A – January 8, 2026
In a significant step toward interdisciplinary learning, a cohort of students from the Department of Crop Science recently completed a specialized field training program at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. The training was designed to provide students with hands-on experience in the latest biotechnologies utilized in modern scientific and applied research.
The program focused on two cornerstone technologies in molecular biology: Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Electrophoresis. Students were given the opportunity to directly operate the equipment and were trained in the sophisticated mechanisms of laboratory data analysis. This experience is essential for developing the technical competencies required for advanced genetic and biological research in agriculture.
This initiative is part of the Faculty’s broader strategy to create an integrated learning environment that bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. By mastering these modern laboratory techniques, students are better prepared to meet the demands of the contemporary job market and contribute to high-level scientific research in the fields of agriculture and biosciences
