THE FACULTY of Pharmacy and Thailand’s Mahidol University have signed an agreement to foster academic exchanges.
Former Pharmacy Dean Priscilla Torres and Mahidol University’s Medical Technology Dean Virapony Prachayasittikul and Pharmacy Dean Chuthamanee Suthisiasang signed the memorandum of agreement that will enable both universities to have an exchange of faculty and students, do joint research projects, organize joint symposia, and share academic materials, journals, and information.
Torres led a five-man delegation to Thailand last May 20-24 to finalize the agreement.
The delegation also visited Chulalongkorn University.
The Faculty’s Department of Biochemistry has a partnership with Chulalongkorn in which UST students are sent for internship with the Thai university’s Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences. Celton F. Ramirez
