Tokyo, Japan was the latest venue to witness the highlights of the research of the Genetic Fingerprinting Laboratory. GFL head and supervisor, Dr. Mudjekeewis Santos, was invited to visit Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology (TUMSAT) as a lecturer in the JSPS-NRCT Asian Core University Program Symposium 2012. The one day symposium was held last December 7, 2012 in Rakusui Hall TUMSAT Shinagawa Campus. In line with the theme, “Development of new biotechnology for aquaculture and risk management of aquaculture products – III,” Doc Mudjie presented his paper entitled, Fisheries and Aquaculture Biotechnology in the Philippines. Key researchers from Southeast Asia under the JSPS Asian Core Program attended the said event to highlight their progress in Aquaculture research.
Although briefly interrupted by a 7.3 earthquake originating from Japan’s eastern coast, the symposium ended with great success. A joyous fellowship night fit for outstanding marine and aquaculture scientists was held in Shinagawa Keikyu Ex Inn. Indeed, research relations within Southeast Asia have once again stepped up, bringing promise of increased future collaborations and information exchange. After three and a half years, Doc Mudjie was able to visit the homey walls of his Masters and PhD laboratory in TUMSAT. He said he really enjoyed the Tokyo trip because of the chance to see some old friends and colleagues. Without a doubt, a trip where one brings Philippine pride and honor would certainly be an enjoyable one!
