Denpasar, December 4, 2024 – Faculty of Agriculture, Udayana University (UNUD) in collaboration with PT. Wadya Prima Mulia held an event called “International Seminar and Workshop on Emerging Trends of Imaging Technique and Analysis for Material and Life Science Research” at the Hyatt Regency Bali Ballroom. This event aims to share knowledge and build a wider research network between academic institutions and industry partners. The seminar and workshop activities began with the signing of a plaque of cooperation between the Faculty of Agriculture and PT Wadya Prima, which in this case was signed directly by the Dean of FP Unud I Putu Sudiarta, S.P., M.Sc., Ph.D., and Director of PT Wadya Prima Mr. Mulia Mr. Yawarsa Halim. In his remarks while opening the event, Sudiarta expressed his appreciation for the close collaboration between the academic world and industry, especially in supporting the development of imaging technology.
The seminar and workshop activities will last for 3 days (4-6 December 2024) starting with a seminar filled by international and national speakers, with a focus on the application of advanced imaging technology in material and life science research. This seminar presented eight renowned speakers from various institutions, including Chatnapa Jam Intanont (Thermo Fisher Scientific), Fitria Dwi Ayuningtyas, Ph.D. (Scientific Imaging Center), Dr. Toto Sudiro (National Innovation Research Agency), Prof. Dr. Tjokorda Gde Tirta Nindhia (Faculty of Engineering, Udayana University), Prof. Dr. Anggraini Barlian, M.Sc. (School of Life Sciences and Technology - Bandung Institute of Technology), Prof. Gusti Ngurah Mahardika (Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Udayana University), Dr. drg. (Faculty of Medicine, Udayana University), Prof. Dr. Ir. I Gede Putu Wirawan (Faculty of Agriculture, Udayana University) with moderators such as Prof. Dr. Ir. I Nyoman Rai, M.S.

Meanwhile, participants attending this event consisted of academics, researchers, students, and practitioners from various institutions in the Bali region and eastern Indonesia.
The topics discussed included the application and techniques of Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy and Electron Microscopy research tools which are advanced microscope equipment. Not only for biomaterial and biotechnology research but also for renewable material research, geology, advanced physics, and many more. In addition to the presentation of research developments and technological developments, this seminar is also expected to increase the motivation of researchers (academics) in achieving journals to the international level in order to advance the quality of research in Indonesia, one of the publication requirements of international journals is generally the presence of sample imaging data (Imaging) using microscopy technology.
This collaboration shows a strong synergy between the Faculty of Agriculture, Udayana University and PT. Wadya Prima Mulia in encouraging technological innovation for the advancement of science. After the seminar, the event will continue with a workshop on the use of various types of microscopy instruments (optical microscopes to electron microscopes) which will take place in the Postgraduate Hall of Udayana University, Denpasar, and will end with an intensive educational tour in the Bali area.
