  • Nurul Wahida Othman received her PhD from Australian National University, Canberra in 2013. She is currently a Senior Lecturer at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) and former Head of the Centre for Insect Systematics (CIS), UKM (2017-2023). Her research interest is on insect physiology and biochemistry which focuses on the histology and regulations of the digestive, nervous and reproduction systems of pest insects and aesthetic insects such as stick insects and firefly. She also did research in insect toxicology and was involved in biopesticide development to control insect pests of oil palm, Metisa plana, and invasive species, the red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus. Dr. Wahida is actively involved in various exhibitions to create awareness of insects for the community and has led a few STEAM activities such as Kem Serangga, Kem Skuad Palma Emas, I Want To Touch a Bug and Seni Insekta throughout the years.
