The event took place in the Leadership Meeting Room (RSP) at the APSLC Building, Faculty of Pharmacy UGM, and marked the opening agenda of Prof. Eisenhauer’s visit under the EQUITY Visiting (Inviting) Top Professors program.
The meeting was attended by the leadership team of the Faculty of Pharmacy UGM, along with several faculty members whose research areas are relevant to Prof. Eisenhauer’s expertise, particularly in stable isotope chemical analysis and its diverse applications in multidisciplinary research. The discussion was productive and focused on opportunities to strengthen research collaboration, joint scientific publications, and the development of broader academic partnerships in the future.
In his welcoming remarks, the Dean of the Faculty of Pharmacy UGM, Prof. Dr. apt. Satibi, expressed his appreciation for Prof. Eisenhauer’s visit. According to him, the visit holds strategic significance in expanding the faculty’s international network and enhancing the quality of collaborative research.
