LASAM's seminar and 23rd AGM

LASAM brought its members together at Hotel Bangi-Putrajaya on 20 September 2018 for a scientific seminar and the association's 23rd Annual General Meeting, its yearly meeting of members. The seminar's topic, shown on the screen at the front of the room, was biosafety and biosecurity in animal research facilities, and one of the slides dealt with allergy prevention. Members and guests gathered on the hotel's staircase for the group photo, between two LASAM banners.

Rodents at UPM and neuroscience at UiTM

On 9 and 10 October, UPM's Unit of Comparative Medicine and Technology (COMeT) held its Workshop on the Care & Use of Rodents in Research 2018 in the Tongkat Ali Room at the Institute of Bioscience, UPM, with Prima Nexus as a sponsor. From 21 to 23 November, UiTM held Neuroscience Workshop Series 2: Experimental Models of Neurodegenerative Diseases at the Faculty of Medicine on its Sungai Buloh campus, in a seminar room in the Academic Building and at NeuRon in the Anatomy Building. Prima Nexus was invited to speak at the workshop.
