The University of Queensland’s Professor André Drenth will be one of the first scientists to participate in a new Indonesian Government program that aims to strengthen Indonesia’s global research collaborations and boost food security.
As part of the World Class Professor program, Professor Drenth from the Queensland Alliance for Agriculture and Food Innovation (QAAFI) will visit Indonesia’s oldest University, the Universitas Gadjah Mada, in Yogyakarta in October.
“The program will help build meaningful collaboration with Indonesia on tropical plant diseases which are causing significant problems in both countries,” he said.
