 Establishment of the School of Biological Sciences at the University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan was conceptualized in 2002. Coincidently around the same time Dr Muhammd Akhtar, then the only FRS of Pakistani origin, had retired from Southampton University, UK, after an illustrious career. Mr. Akhtar Saeed, then Education Minister, Government of the Punjab, took an unprecedented personal initiative to pursue Dr. Akhtar to come to Lahore and contribute to a national cause. Thus started the Punjab Government-Punjab University joint project for the establishment of the School of Biological Sciences, subsequently approved by the University of the Punjab Syndicate, as a part of the university, within the provisions of the University of the Punjab.

Vision Statement
Human Resource Development: There is a dearth of researchers in universities/R&D institutes who are well versed in molecular biology techniques especially recombinant DNA technology and proteomics. A few who are familiar with the techniques are handicapped due to ill equipped laboratories.
With this background our vision is to provide state of the art facilities in molecular biology, plant and animal biotechnology, protein chemistry and enzymology to our own students and researchers from other departments of the university/other universities of the country.

Mission Statement
Our mission is human resource development in areas of molecular biology, recombinant DNA technology and proteomics
To establish linkage between R&D and industry.
Develop sustainable indigenous technology for the preparation and application of therapeutic hormones (e.g. human insulin, human interferon and GH for enhancing productivity from the farm animals) and seme enzymes of commercial application.

|
Specific Objectives
To create and update facilities for top-rate research in biological sciences and to provide opportunity for high class doctorate and post-doctorate research on problems of national importance.
Organizing courses which provide sufficient background knowledge to enable the researchers to undertake productive research.
Organizing invited lectures, seminars, workshops and symposia on topics of current interest.
