I come with 17 years of experience in research, teaching, and research administration. I am a Faculty at the Department of Social and Preventive Medicine Faculty of Medicine (FOM), Universiti Malaya (UM), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Over the years, I have been developing and teaching courses on Implementation Research, Demography, Research Methods,Philosophy of Health Systems and Health Policy Research, Applied Statistics in Social Research, and Time Series Analysis. I am committed to expanding the local reach of Implementation Science and have been serving as a Faculty Scholar for the Malaysian Implementation Science Training (MIST) program, a collaborative effort of UM and Yale University, US. Additionally, I'm serving as a Faculty for the Master of Health Research Ethics Program, developed by Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics and Universiti Malaya. With an excellent academic background, I started my career with ICDDR, B in Bangladesh. Over time, I specialized in mixed-method research. For the last 17 years, my research focus has been on population health and health policy across diversified cultural contexts. Working in Bangladesh, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and New Zealand gave me the opportunity to understand both developing and developed country contexts. My overall career goal is to drive impactful research.
