Overview

The Central Research Lab of The Women University Multan was established by Prof. Dr Shahida Husnain in 2014 and equipped with few sophisticated instruments along with well-trained and dedicated staff. The lab is equipped with the latest tools and equipment to give researchers ample exposure to the latest developments in the field of Physical and Life sciences. It enables students and scientists to pursue research in disciplines of biological, medical, chemical and agricultural sciences. Before the installation of these equipments, the samples were either sent outside the country or to laboratories rarely located within the country where the researchers either have no access or have to wait for months to get results.

Services are offered not only to the students and researchers from this university but also to other universities, research institutions.
