Pendidikan Magister menuju Doktor untuk Sarjana Unggul (PMDSU), merupakan program beasiswa bagi sarjana unggul untuk melakukan percepatan pendidikan menjadi lulusan doktor pada usia muda.
The seminar, which took place in person in Lecture Room D, was attended by supervisors, examiners, and other Master's students from the IKG program. It focused on the potential of Antisense Long Intergenic Non-Coding RNA 00673 in inhibiting proliferation and inducing apoptosis in human tongue squamous cell carcinoma.
The seminar supervisor, Prof. drg. Supriatno, M.Kes., M.D.Sc., Ph.D., stated that Kadek’s presentation was well-executed and that the research is set to continue.
However, Prof. Supriatno emphasized the need for improvements, particularly in the use of proper language in writing and more detailed explanations of the research methods.
During the session, the examiners, including Dr. dr. Kartika Widayati, Sp.PD-KHOM, and drg. Heni Susilowati, M.Kes., Ph.D., provided valuable feedback regarding the research methodology presented. These suggestions are expected to strengthen the foundation of the study before advancing to the next stages.
“The proposal seminar presentation was well conducted, and the research will proceed. However, there needs to be improvements in language usage and detailed descriptions of the research methods,” said Prof. drg. Supriatno, M.Kes., M.D.Sc., Ph.D., the seminar supervisor.
