Biografi/ Biography :
Dr. Khaizurin ialah pensyarah kanan di Jabatan Biokimia di Fakulti Perubatan, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), yang terletak di kampus Kuala Lumpur. Beliau memperoleh ijazah sarjana muda dalam bidang Biokimia dari Universiti Putra Malaysia (2003). Pada tahun 2006, beliau menamatkan pengajian Master Sains (Kajian Mekanisme Dadah) di bawah penyeliaan Profesor Dr. Daud Ahmad Israf Ali dari universiti yang sama. Dr. Khaizurin menerima Ph.D. dalam Biologi Sistem dari Universiti Warwick, United Kingdom pada tahun 2013 di bawah penyeliaan Profesor John McCarthy.
Kajian Dr. Khaizurin kini tertumpu kepada menggunakan yis Saccharomyces cerevisiae sebagai model untuk mengkaji tekanan oksidatif dan penuaan, serta mengkaji sifat biokimia ekstrak Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Minat beliau yang lain adalah dalam kajian mengenai radang (inflamasi), terbukti oleh keahliannya dalam kumpulan Kajian Penuaan dan Penyakit Degeneratif (Kluster Penjagaan Kesihatan Komuniti) dan Kajian Sepsis (MySepsis) (Kluster Jangkitan & Imuniti) di dalam fakulti.
Dr. Khaizurin is a senior lecturer at the Department of Biochemistry in the Faculty of Medicine, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), located in Kuala Lumpur campus. She obtained her undergraduate degree in Biochemistry from Universiti Putra Malaysia (2003). In 2006 she completed her Masters in Science (Drug Mechanism Studies) under the supervision of Professor Dr. Daud Ahmad Israf Ali from the same university. Dr. Khaizurin received her Ph.D. in Systems Biology from the University of Warwick, the United Kingdom in 2013 under the supervision of Professor John McCarthy.
Dr. Khaizurin`s research is currently focusing on utilizing the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model to study oxidative stress and aging. as well as investigating the biochemical properties of Saccharomyces cerevisiae crude extract. Her other interest is inflammation studies, hence depicted by her being a member of both Ageing and Degenerative Diseases (Community Healthcare Cluster) and Sepsis Research (MySepsis) (Infection & Immunity Cluster) groups, in the faculty.
