* The -2978C/G single nucleotide polymorphism of ADAM33 gene in a selected Filipino asthmatic population (Yap JM, Ching MW, Cabanilla CQ, Ramos JDA)
* Genotype and allele frequencies of eotaxin -384 A>G and interleukin 5 -703 C>T SNPs in selected pediatric asthmatic population (Ching MW, Santos KCP, Ong CM, JDA Ramos)
The UST delegation composed of participants coming from both the College of Science and the UST Graduate School: John Donnie A. Ramos (faculty); Jennifer Maries Yap (faculty); Joshua Evans Bajao (former Bio student / GS Msc student); Rainier Ulrich Velasco (former Bio student / GS MSs student) and Marciar Ching (GS PhD alumna).
The group was a part of a 16-man delegation from the Philippines.
Dr. Ramos is the current president of the Philippine Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (PSBMB), a member of IUBMB and FAOBMB.
