BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Azman Ma’amor is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Universiti Malaya, Malaysia, whose work bridges advanced materials chemistry, catalysis, and sustainable product development. His research focuses on transforming natural and industrial waste into high-value functional materials, particularly for environmental, biomedical, and cosmetic applications.

Dr. Azman has established an active research portfolio in nanomaterials, heterogeneous catalysis, and photocatalytic materials, with particular emphasis on hydroxyapatite and calcium-based biomaterials derived from marine waste such as clamshells and cuttlefish bone. His work contributes to circular economy strategies by converting underutilized biowaste into sustainable materials for water treatment, biomaterials, and emerging cosmetic technologies. In recent years, he has expanded his research toward cosmetic science and advanced skincare formulations, exploring the use of naturally derived calcium compounds and functional nanomaterials for innovative skincare products.

He has published 23 ISI-indexed journal articles (7 Q1, 13 Q2, 3 Q3) with an H-index of 12 and more than 370 citations, reflecting significant contributions to catalysis, nanomaterials, and environmental chemistry. Dr. Azman has also secured over RM460,000 in competitive research funding as Principal Investigator, while contributing to collaborative projects totaling over RM1.8 million in funding. His research has resulted in several innovation awards, including gold medals at international innovation competitions and the Universiti Malaya Excellent Service Award.

Beyond research, Dr. Azman actively mentors postgraduate students and contributes to academic leadership at Universiti Malaya. Through interdisciplinary collaboration and translational research, he continues to advance sustainable chemistry and functional material development for environmental and cosmetic applications, aiming to translate laboratory discoveries into practical technologies and high-value products.
