Following up the Western Blot workshop in collaboration between Faculty of Pharmacy UGM with PT Bioafarma in August 2017, both parties agreed to maintain the relationship through continuous collaboration. Regarding this matter, on last Friday (15/9), Quality Control Department of PT Biofarma paid a visit to Faculty of Pharmacy UGM to discuss further their previous collaboration. Their visit was warmly welcomed by Faculty of Pharmacy UGM.
PT Biofarma has long been a partner of Faculty of Pharmacy UGM, and it is not their first visit to Faculty of Pharmacy UGM. Dr Adam Hermawan, Apt., Dr Riris Istighfari Jenie, Dr Muthi’ Ikawati, and Vice Dean for Human Resource, Asset Management, and Finance Dr Satibi, M.Si., Apt. received and welcomed the representatives from Biofarma. The discussion about initiation of collaboration focused on “Genetic Monitoring.”
Furthermore, as a producer of medicine and medical equipment, Bioafarma expects this step could open chances for a mutual collaboration. On the other hand, Faculty of Pharmacy considers that this chance could be a learning opportunity for both parties. “This initiation will be a very good step. Later we will also send a team to Biofarma, our students might be given opportunities to learn about industry in Biofarma,” Dr Adam mentioned in his interview after meeting the QC Manager of PT Biofarma.
