On the first day, students visited a nearby island to <\/span>observe<\/span> various marine organisms in their natural habitat. The experience served as a source of inspiration, encouraging students to <\/span>identify<\/span> real environmental<\/span> challenges and brainstorm innovative biotechnology solutions. The group also went snorkeling, allowing them to directly <\/span>observe<\/span> the condition of coral reef ecosystems and understand the importance of preserving marine biodiversity.<\/span><\/span> The second day focused on the industrial application of marine biotechnology <\/span>by visiting <\/span>two shrimp hatcheries. Through discussions with hatchery owners, students gained valuable knowledge about how biotechnology is used to improve shrimp cultivation, solve common industry problems, and support sustainable aquaculture practices.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
