At Google\u2019s innovation booth, Dr Su Datt\u2019s research using AlphaFold \u2014 an artificial intelligence (AI) system developed by Google DeepMind capable of predicting protein structures with high accuracy \u2014 was showcased as an example of how AI is transforming the life sciences landscape. Visitors had the opportunity to meet Dr Su Datt and learn how his team at the Faculty of Science and Technology (FST), 集美麻豆, is applying this technology to study Burkholderia pseudomallei<\/em>, the bacterium responsible for melioidosis, a serious disease prevalent in tropical regions such as Malaysia and Thailand.<\/p>

Using AlphaFold, Dr Su Datt\u2019s team successfully predicted the 3D structures of three key proteins identified as sugar transporter proteins, which enable the bacterium to absorb nutrients and survive in challenging environments. These findings were supported by experimental validation led by Dr Sylvia Chieng, also from FST, confirming the important role of these proteins in bacterial growth when utilising various types of sugars as nutrient sources. The study opens new pathways for the development of more effective drugs and treatments for melioidosis.<\/p>

\u201cAlphaFold allows us to visualise protein structures that were previously unknown,\u201d said Dr Su Datt. \u201cBy combining AI and bioinformatics, we can accelerate the discovery of treatments for diseases such as melioidosis \u2014 a health issue affecting communities across the region.\u201d<\/p>

Google\u2019s feature of Dr Su Datt\u2019s work highlights Malaysia\u2019s contribution to world-class AI research and demonstrates the potential of academia\u2013industry collaboration in driving innovation in science and biotechnology. ABIS 2025 also brought together government leaders, CEOs, and innovators from across ASEAN to discuss digital transformation, sustainability, and the future of regional technology.<\/p>

Japan, 19 June 2025 – <\/strong>At the Faculty of Science and Technology, 集美麻豆, we are proud to see our researchers making their mark on the global stage. Dr Lam Su Datt, Dr Nurul Asikin Binti Mijan, and Dr Wan Nurfadhilah Binti Zaharim are currently representing 集美麻豆 in a prestigious international research collaboration with the RIKEN Nishina Center for Accelerator-Based Science and Tohoku University in Japan. This collaboration is made possible through the Y-tec programme by JST-NEXUS, which supports impactful scientific exchange between Japan and ASEAN nations.<\/p>

This initiative aims to develop sustainable green technologies by combining Japan\u2019s world-class research infrastructure (including supercomputers and particle accelerators) with Malaysia\u2019s strengths in materials informatics. One key focus: transforming agricultural waste such as palm biomass and discarded chicken feathers into innovative circular energy storage materials in support of the SDGs.<\/p>

Highlights:
\u2022 Dr Wan Nurfadhilah, the Malaysian lead, has worked closely with Dr Watanabe of RIKEN for over a decade and plays a key role in mentoring young researchers under both the Y-tec and Sakura Science Programmes.
\u2022 Dr Nurul Asikin shared her amazement at working with advanced analysis tools and supercomputers for the first time and expressed a strong desire to introduce such technologies in Malaysia.
\u2022 Dr Lam Su Datt reported promising results\u2014confirming the potential of chicken feathers as thermal energy storage materials.<\/p>

Among the 10 Malaysian participants, 7 are women, highlighting Malaysia\u2019s growing leadership in women-led science\u2014an eye-opener for some Japanese collaborators.Since its kickoff in December 2024, the project has progressed through regular online meetings. In April 2025, five Malaysian researchers visited Japan for hands-on training, data collection, and collaborative research at Japan\u2019s leading facilities\u2014strengthening cross-cultural understanding and laying the foundation for future ASEAN-Japan partnerships.<\/p>

Dr Watanabe remarked: \u201cThere are cultural and educational differences, but the passion and drive of these young researchers are extraordinary\u2014many Japanese students cannot match their energy.\u201d<\/p>

When asked about the challenges, all three Malaysian researchers viewed the differences not as obstacles, but as opportunities for growth. Their openness, positivity, and enthusiasm were truly inspiring.<\/p>

Let\u2019s continue celebrating and supporting these bright minds who are building a greener, more connected future through international collaboration.<\/p>

Batu Laut, 20 February 2025 – <\/strong>The Semai Cinta Alam @ SKBL<\/strong> programme was successfully and enthusiastically held today at Sekolah Kebangsaan Batu Laut (SKBL)<\/strong>. This initiative was spearheaded by the Bangi Botanical Garden, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (TBB, 集美麻豆)<\/strong> in collaboration with Sekolah Kebangsaan Batu Laut<\/strong> and a group of Research Officers from the Faculty of Science and Technology (FST), 集美麻豆<\/strong>.<\/p>

The programme aimed to raise awareness among primary school students about the importance of protecting the environment and to spark their interest in science and biodiversity.<\/p>

A total of 202 students aged between 10 and 12 years<\/strong> participated actively and enthusiastically throughout the programme. It began with a sharing session titled “Semai Cinta Alam and Let’s Be a Scientist”<\/strong>, followed by a “Nature Chill”<\/strong> session and a fun activity called EcoQuiz<\/strong>, where students were given science-related questions.<\/p>

Notably, the official chant “SKBL Hebat, Alam Selamat!”<\/strong> (“SKBL is Great, Nature is Safe!”) echoed enthusiastically throughout the event, further fuelling the students’ engagement and excitement.<\/p>

The success of this programme clearly demonstrates that interactive and hands-on approaches can have a significant impact in shaping sustainable attitudes and thinking among school students. With such encouraging participation, it is hoped that similar programmes will continue in the future to ensure that the younger generation is continuously exposed to and motivated to become responsible stewards of the environment.<\/p>
