Seminar on the Development of High-value Herbal Products
High-value herbal products are given a priority in NKEA initiatives as new economic source. The development of high-value herbal products requires integration of knowledge and expertise in the field of pharmaceuticals, medicine, bioprocessing, chemical analysis, biotechnology, botanicals, marketing and others. This field has a great impact on the safety of the country’s medicines in the future. History has proven that the Malay world has a very comprehensive traditional herbal medicine system and scientific studies have proven it.
The Institute Marine Biotechnology (IMB) has organized a Conference on the Development of High Value Herbal Medicine on January 22, 2018 at the INOS Auditorium, UMT and two prominent experts: Dr. Abdul Ghani Hussain and Prof. Dr. Fadzilah Adibah Abdul Majid were sharing their expertise and knowledge with participants.

The organization committee would like to thank to those who attend the seminar and hopefully acquire useful knowledge from the event.
