FLAGSHIP PROGRAMMES
MARINE DRUG DISCOVERY
MARINE MICROBES
AQUATIC BIOTECHNOLOGY
In-house enhanced fractions that are prepared from powdered biota and small molecules produced either from hit fractions or chemical synthesis are stored systematically in this repository
Aquatic biotechnology involves the application of direct and indirect use of aquatic organisms or parts or products of living aquatic organisms in their natural or modified forms such as microalgae, seahorses, sea cucumbers etc.
Various micro-organisms isolated from marine and aquatic resources are identified and systematically stored in this repository. Such micro-organisms include bacteria, fungi and microalgae that may have vast potentials in producing valuable bio-products.

FLAGSHIP PROGRAMMES
IMB is fortunate to have researchers with various expertise under the five research programmes. Realising that more can be achieved by combining their expertise, three multi-disciplinary based flagship projects have been identified in IMB.
MARINE DRUG DISCOVERY
