She is also serves as committee member for International Biosafety Committee Member (IBC) of University Malaya and also auditor for Enforcement committee for Biosafety at the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (2014-current). In spirit, her research inclination and interest grew since she was in her second year of her degree program when she felt that research is actually very challenging and has kept her going since then. Since 1996, when she joined her Phd Program, her research collaboration, friends, teachers and networks was established from all over the world and her exposure as student led to belief that you need to think out of the box when it comes to research. Of course knowledge and research grants are important for one to do research but the two more important things are even more important than the former which are love and selfless service in research that caters for the students, university, community, industry, country and global needs. Thus in short, she has so far 25 PhD students and 25 masters students whom have graduated and currently having 15 PhD students have supervise to completion 20 undergraduate students and have published more than 60 ISI publications, two book chapters and have three National patents and 9 International patents. She serves currently as a reviewer for PLOS one, GENE, META GENE, Aquaculture, Aquaculture Research and Genomics journal. Her future steps is always have to embark on research with ethics and integrity as her research progress in the aquatic world that involves multidisciplinary approaches and hope to instigate the scientific world on thought provoking ideas that can shift the people’s mind, heart and soul to be more aligned to the world’s needs and happiness. </span> </div> </div> <div class="row border-all border-color-blue padding-15px-tb margin-30px-bottom"> <div class="col-md-3 col-sm-6 col-xs-12 team-block text-left team-style-1 sm-margin-two-bottom xs-margin-20px-bottom wow fadeInRight"> <figure> <div class="team-image xs-width-100"> <a href="#"><img src="https://medicinal-chemistry.synergiasummits.com/storage/speakers/1696940440.jpg" alt="" data-no-retina=""></a> </div> </figure> </div> <div class="col-md-9 col-sm-6 col-xs-12 text-left sm-margin-two-bottom xs-margin-20px-bottom wow fadeInRight"> <div class="font-size-26px font-weight-600 text-extra-dark-gray">Prof. Uli Kazmaier</div> <div class="text-medium font-weight-500 text-dark-gray">Saarland University, Germany</div> <div class="text-extra-large font-weight-500 text-blue margin-10px-top margin-20px-bottom">Title: <font class="text-light-blue text-italic">Flexible total syntheses of biological active natural products</font></div> <span class="more"> Uli Kazmaier studied chemistry and got his PhD at the University of Stuttgart. Afterwards he joined the research groups of M. T. Reetz (Marburg) and B. M. Trost (Stanford) as a postdoc. In 1992, he moved to Heidelberg starting his own scientific work. In 2000 he received a Novartis Chemistry Lectureship and in 2001 an offer of a full professorship at Saarland University, where he is since that time. He rejected offers from the university of Bayreuth and Heidelberg. His group is not only involved in the development of new synthetic methods but also in their application in natural product syntheses. The major goal is not only the synthesis of a natural product itself, but also the development of concepts to modify these natural products to generate small libraries of potential drugs (natural product medicinal chemistry). He has published more than 280 scientific publications. </span> </div> </div> <div class="row border-all border-color-blue padding-15px-tb margin-30px-bottom"> <div class="col-md-3 col-sm-6 col-xs-12 team-block text-left team-style-1 sm-margin-two-bottom xs-margin-20px-bottom wow fadeInRight"> <figure> <div class="team-image xs-width-100"> <a href="#"><img src="https://medicinal-chemistry.synergiasummits.com/storage/speakers/1697603577.jpg" alt="" data-no-retina=""></a> </div> </figure> </div> <div class="col-md-9 col-sm-6 col-xs-12 text-left sm-margin-two-bottom xs-margin-20px-bottom wow fadeInRight"> <div class="font-size-26px font-weight-600 text-extra-dark-gray">Dr. Hong Shen</div> <div class="text-medium font-weight-500 text-dark-gray">China Innovation Center of Roche</div> <div class="text-extra-large font-weight-500 text-blue margin-10px-top margin-20px-bottom">Title: <font class="text-light-blue text-italic">Discovery of Novel Antiviral Compounds</font></div> <span class="more"> Dr. Hong Shen received his B.S. from Peking University and Ph.D. from Stanford University.
