Biografi/ Biography :
Ahmad Nazlim Yusoff ialah ahli fizik dan penyelidik di Pusat Kajian Diagnostik, Teraputik dan Penyiasatan (CODTIS), Fakulti Sains Kesihatan (FSK), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). Beliau sekarang ialah Pengerusi CODTIS sehingga November 2025. Beliau memperoleh Sarjana Muda Sains (S.M.Sn.), Sarjana Sains (S.Sn.) dan Doktor Falsafah (Dr.Fal.) dalam Fizik daripada UKM. Tesis Dr.Fal. beliau adalah mengenai interaksi antara bahan magnet dan dielektrik dengan medan magnet dan gelombang mikro dengan fokus khusus kepada penyerapan tenagn menggunakan kaedah pantulan spekular. Beliau mengajar kursus fizik di Program Pengimejan Diagnostik dan Radioterapi, UKM, terutama fizik am, fizik pengimejan resonans magnet dan fizik ultrasonografi perubatan. Di luar UKM beliau telah menyampaikan syarahan mengenai fizik dan keselamatan pengimejan resonans magnet (MRI) di Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM) dan Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS), Indonesia dan telah dilantik sebagai pemeriksa tesis Dr.Fal. dan S.Sn. oleh beberapa institusi kebangsaan. Beliau ialah Felo Persatuan Sains dan Teknologi Keadaan Pepejal Malaysia, Felo Persatuan Fizik Perubatan Malaysia dan Ahli Seumur Hidup Institut Fizik Malaysia. Berdasarkan pengalaman beliau dalam fizik tak mengion, beliau telah dilantik sebagai ahli Sub-working Committee for Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Laser, Ultraviolet and Ultrasound, oleh Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia. Pada masa ini beliau menyandang jawatan Ketua Penyunting jurnal Physics and Technology in Medicine dan Buletin Sains Kesihatan serta Editor bagi jurnal Solid State Science and Technology. Minat penyelidikan beliau adalah kajian fungsi otak manusia menggunakan teknik pengimejan resonans magnet kefungsian (fMRI).
Ahmad Nazlim Yusoff, is a Physicist and a Researcher at the Centre for Diagnostic, Therapeutic and Investigative Studies (CODTIS), Faculty of Health Science (FHS), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). He is currently the Chair of CODTIS until November 2025. He obtained his Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.), Masters of Science (M.Sc.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.), in Physics, from UKM. His Ph.D. thesis was about the interaction of magnetic and dielectric materials with magnetic and microwave fields with a special focus on energy absorption by using a specular reflection method. He teaches physics courses in the Diagnostic Imaging & Radiotherapy Program, UKM, particularly general physics, the physics of magnetic resonance imaging and the physics of medical ultrasonography. Outside UKM, he had delivered lectures on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) physics and safety at the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH) and the Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS), Indonesia and had been appointed as PhD and Masters theses examiner by various national institutions. He is a Fellow of the Malaysian Solid State Science and Technology Society (SSSTS), Fellow of the Malaysian Association of Medical Physics (MAMP) and a Life Member of the Malaysian Institute of Physics (MIP). He was recently appointed as the External Examiner for an Academic Program by the Faculty of Science and Technology (FST), Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM). Due to his experience in non-ionising physics, he had also been appointed as a member of the Sub-working Committee for Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Laser, Ultraviolet and Ultrasound, by the Ministry of Health Malaysia. He was also appointed as the Editor-in-Chief for Physics and Technology in Medicine (2019 – 2021) and currently holding the posts of Editor-in-Chief for Buletin Sains Kesihatan and Journal Manager for the Solid State Science and Technology journals. His research interest is on the study of human brain function using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technique.
