Introduction to the GJU Genomics Lab

Founded in 2023 by Principal Investigator (PI) Dr. Walid Al-Zyoud, the GJU Genomics Lab at the German Jordanian University is a dedicated research facility specializing in high-throughput genomic technologies and molecular diagnostics.

The laboratory integrates Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), real-time PCR (qPCR), molecular biology techniques, and translational genomics to advance research in infectious diseases, molecular pathology, biomarker discovery, and precision medicine.

In addition to research, the laboratory supports biosafety compliance, protocol development, equipment management, and the training and supervision of undergraduate and graduate researchers, while fostering collaborations with academic, clinical, and international partners.
