He emphasized the translational aspects of molecular diagnostics in diagnosing and treating diseases, emphasizing how these technologies have the potential to revolutionize healthcare by enabling precise, personalized medicine.
 
Dr. Nisar Ahmad Mir, the Registrar of the University of Kashmir, provided insights into the latest research facilities being established at CIRI. He highlighted how these facilities are transforming the research landscape at the university, making it a hub for ground-breaking interdisciplinary research in genomics, proteomics, and molecular diagnostics.
 
Dr. Altaf Bhat, the coordinator of CIRI, extended a warm welcome to the distinguished guests from various parts of the country. He elaborated on the strong connection between molecular diagnostics and the fields of genomics and proteomics in the modern era. His remarks illuminated how these domains are interwoven, and advancements in one area invariably lead to progress in the others.
