The “MR-Molecular Biosciences Research Cluster (MR-MBRC)” was established in 2017, with the sole aim of promoting scientific research among scholars and students at Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies. MR-MBRC has state-of-the-art facilities for advanced research and its members include highly motivated students. The laboratory is fully equipped with an Animal Cell Culture facility along with molecular biology and microbiology laboratories.

The Manav Rachna Centre for Medicinal Plant Pathology (MR-CMPP) will promote multidisciplinary and multi-institutional research with the “Seed to Shelf” approach introduced by the National Medicinal Plants Board. This approach addresses aspects related to Quality Planting Materials (QPM), Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs), and Good Post-Harvest Practices (GPHPs). Technology transfer for crops and varieties suitable for specific agro-climatic zones, soil suitability, cultivation practices, sources of seed, and quality planting material will be provided to support farmers and growers so that medicinal plants emerge as a viable crop diversification option may pick up to the desired level.
