The Master’s Program in Biology at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) continues to develop inter-institutional academic collaboration through research-based postgraduate activities involving cross-institutional supervision and mentorship.

This collaboration is reflected in the research supervision of Diana Priyatno, a Master’s student in the Biology Program at Universitas Gadjah Mada, who is also a BINUS University employee. One of her supervisors is Prof. Dr. Nesti Sianipar, Head of the Food and Biomolecular Research Center (FBRC), demonstrating a model of academic synergy between UGM and BINUS University through human resource integration and research collaboration.

>Research Proposal Title:
Analysis of Lectin-Gene Expression in Wild-Type and Mutant Typhonium flagelliforme (Rodent Tuber) Plants

The research focuses on the molecular analysis of lectin-gene expression in medicinal plants, integrating plant biotechnology and molecular biology approaches to explore the functional and bioactive potential of Typhonium flagelliforme, a species widely studied for its pharmacological and biotechnological relevance.

This collaboration represents a structured form of institutional partnership through postgraduate education, where academic supervision, research development, and professional affiliation intersect. It illustrates how master’s student research can function as an effective platform for inter-university cooperation, contributing to sustainable research networks and the development of scientific capacity in Indonesia.
