5th International Postgraduate Conference on Biotechnology (IPCB) 2021

December 8, 2021 – December 10, 2021


Conference Main Theme:

"Symbiosis-science and technology for sustainable environment towards societal well-being"

IPCB aims to strengthen research collaboration with young researchers and encourage multilateral cooperation among ASEAN countries, advancing next-generation science and sustainable development of our natural resources. Biotechnology unlocks the environment’s potential, enhancing management, bio- and eco-engineering technologies, and industrial applications. Continued efforts in building knowledge from environmental and technological areas of scientific research is important in lifting societal well-being, and the young researchers of today are future leaders that will bolster the scientific community in tackling critical problems in the world. Managing human resource development for a technologically advanced world is a substantial challenge, and IPCB serves as a platform in developing capable people under the guidance of pioneer scientists across regions by addressing specific issues of national context as part of a wider globalized society.

 

OBJECTIVES

  • To provide a relevant platform for idea sharing, knowledge and technology transfer among the participants across countries.

  • To create close professional relationships between academics, scientists and graduate students from various relevant fields.

  • To embark on emerging opportunities and sustainable development issues in the biotechnology based industry.

  • To create opportunities for researchers from ASEAN region for collaboration linkages at national and international levels.
