[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Young Scientists Network-Academy of Sciences Malaysia (YSN-ASM) held their annual colloquium on a virtual platform from 10 to 12 December 2021.<\/p>\n

The YSN-ASM Colloquium brings together YSN-ASM members and affiliates to celebrate every individual\u2019s professional and personal accomplishments, as well as YSN-ASM\u2019s collective impact. It is also during this programme where YSN-ASM\u2019s programmes and activities will be strategised.<\/p>\n

Day One
\nYSN-ASM Chairperson Associate Professor Dr Chai Lay Ching started the three-day programme with an introduction to the new members. Then, the chairs or co-chairs of each of the eight Working Groups presented a brief introduction on the roles and objectives.

This was followed by a Breakout Session of the Working Groups. All members are encouraged to go to the Working Group in which they want to contribute.<\/p>\n

The second day of the Colloquium concluded with a presentation of the Working Group Strategic Plans.<\/p>\n
