Quantum Technology Harnessing Entanglement, the Most Mind Blogging Scientific Concept
Reforming Physics Teaching – How?
Join Associate Professor Dr. Jaya Seelan Sathiya Seelan, Deputy Director (Research and Innovation) at the Institute for Tropical Biology and Conservation, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, for an insightful exploration into the world of zombie fungi. These parasitic fungi, primarily from the Ophiocordyceps genus, manipulate insect behavior to complete their life cycles, showcasing remarkable ecological interactions. With over five years of fieldwork in Borneo’s biodiverse rainforests, Dr. Seelan will reveal how these fungi influence insect populations and ecosystem balance. This talk will also highlight their potential in medicinal research, emphasizing the importance of preserving Borneo’s biodiversity.
