Metabolomics and Chemical Ecology (MeCE)

Research Group of Metabolomics and Chemical Ecology (MeCE) focuses on studying metabolites diversity in organisms related to their biotic and abiotic factors, their function for interaction among organisms (intra and inter specific interaction), as well as their benefit for human welfare.

Research Focus:

1. Metabolomics in animals, plants, and microbes collected from Indonesia
2. Marine and Terrestrial Chemical Ecology of organisms in Indonesia
3. Applied research related to Metabolomics and Chemical Ecology

Aims:

To develop high-quality research, supervise graduate and undergraduate students, as well as build networking for local and global research collaboration in the area of Metabolomics and Chemical Ecology; To apply Metabolomics and Chemical Ecology for the society advantages.

Field of study:

1. Metabolomics
2. Chemical Ecology
3. Ecophysiology
