Research centres

The School of Biosciences is home to two research centres:

Biotechnology Research Centre (BRC), a premier centre for research on applying biotechnological tools and advanced molecular techniques and breeding strategies

Centre of Excellence for Postharvest Biotechnology (CEPB), which focuses on reducing postharvest losses, developing novel technologies to extend shelf-life and enhance health promoting nutrients of fruits and vegetables and developing alternative technologies to synthetic fungicides to manage postharvest diseases.

We also work closely with the Crops for the Future Research Centre (CFFRC), a premier international centre for research and development of underutilised crops, the School in Malaysia plays a crucial role in addressing the challenges of global food security.
