ASCOT Hosts CLSU Faculty Scientists for Marine Science Talks

January 22, 2025 – ASCOT, led by President Dr. Renato G. Reyes, welcomed faculty scientists from Central Luzon State University (CLSU), including Dr. Garry A. Benico and Dr. Jerwin R. Undan, to discuss potential marine science collaborations.

 

President Reyes emphasized ASCOT’s commitment to advancing marine science and fisheries programs through joint research. He stressed the importance of baseline research in rivers like Bazal and Ditumabo to better understand the province’s ecosystems. “Napakahalaga na pagtulungan ng dalawang institusyon ang larangan ng marine science upang mapalakas ang fisheries program. Marami pa tayong maaring matuklasan sa flora and fauna ng Aurora. Simulan natin ang pagaaral sa mga ilog, gaya ng Bazal River, kasunod ang Ditumabo River, upang maipamalas ang yaman ng ating kalikasan,” he said.
