New opening for collaboration with British University

Picture: Dr.Mark Fellows visiting Air Hitam Forest Reserve, Putrajaya Wetland and Biology Department, UPM to look closely at potential subjects for future collaboration in research and students attachment programme.

My long comunication with many universities in the UK and Natural History Museum in London, finally positively responded by School of Biological Sciences in Reading University. Tropical ecology and biodiversity attracted them to collaborate with me in research and students exchange. Now I have two students working in my laboratory on frogs ecology and diversity. This is just an opening for future collaboration in the field of ecology and biodiversity. Malaysia is one of the countries with mega-biodiversity in the world. I hope all Malaysian will support this linkage not just look at it but participate in research and providing fund if we think of internationalisation. In fact campus like UPM can offer a lot of oppportunities in wildlife ecology and biodiversity. REMEMBER! Malaysia is one of the top mega-biodiversity country in the world.
