I am a scientist and academician in medical molecular biology. I`ve been fortunate to contribute to cancer research, molecular diagnostics, and epigenetics over the years. My focus on molecular medicine and noncoding RNA has allowed me to play a part in Malaysia`s scientific community.
My research on circulating tumor cells and single-cell transcriptomics of colorectal cancer has been recognized by my peers, which I consider a great honor. I`ve held leadership positions, including team leader in cancer genomics and biobanking, Chief Technical Officer, and Head of Quality Assurance.
I`ve had the opportunity to collaborate with institutions worldwide, including a fellowship at the Institute of Genomic Medicine at Newcastle University, England. I was awarded several grants and awards from organizations such as Qiagen, Korean Cancer Association and the Hong Kong Institute of Digestive Disease.
I`ve held various positions, including Application Scientist at Science Vision Sdn Bhd, Visiting Fellow at Newcastle University, Associate Fellow at the Faculty of Health Sciences, UKM, and Adjunct Senior Lecturer at Monash University.
