Message from
the Director
Greetings
from MABIC! We hope this issue of BiCalert finds you
well and busy.
We are
currently very busy planning and organizing our future
events. A workshop for science teachers has been scheduled
for 25th April in collaboration with the Centre for
Curriculum Development, Ministry of Education. A follow
up of this workshop will held mid May at the National
Science Centre.
A few more
events are in the pipeline and we are talking to potential
partners. To keep yourself updated on our events,
visit our event
calendar. One of our highlights this year is the
Asia Pacific
Conference on Tissue Culture and Agribiotechnology
(APaCPA) which will be in June. We hope to see
many local stakeholders at this conference.
As mentioned
during the launch of MABIC’s new direction,
publications will be one of our priorities this year.
We are now working on a few projects and we hope to
get some of these out soon. We will certainly keep
you posted on the latest developments and our outputs.
As usual
your comments and suggestions are most welcome.
Hope to
meet in the next issue with more news and happenings
in the biotechnology arena.
Sincerely
Mahaletchumy Arujanan
Program Director
