Biography | |
ChM. Dr. Abdullah Al-Hadi Ahmad Fuaad, or simply Hadi Fuaad, is a certified chemist, honored to be recognized under the Malaysia Chemist Act 1975. His academic journey has been an exciting one, starting with a Bachelor's degree in Biotechnology with a specialization in Chemistry, followed by a remarkable Doctor of Philosophy from the prestigious University of Queensland, Australia. Till today, he had the privilege of immersing himself in diverse research cultures at six renowned institutes across Australia, Malaysia, and the United States. During his research endeavors, he had the pleasure of receiving specialized training on state-of-the-art equipment, including automatic peptide synthesizers (CSBio, Symphony X), NMR (Bruker), and MALDI-MS (Agilent, Shimadzu). These experiences were complemented by the invaluable guidance of exceptional researchers in modern peptide chemistry. Their expertise spans fascinating areas such as cyclotide synthesis, tarantula toxin, plant defensins, protease inhibitors, and conotoxins. His journey led him to the esteemed halls of Harvard University, where he honed his skills as a Nanotoxicology expert, delving into aerosol research under the mentorship of Professor Joseph Brain and Dr. Ramon Molina. Currently, his research focus revolves around the intriguing world of computational design, synthesis, and characterization of peptide antivirals and vaccines. Additionally, he is passionately involved in developing peptide-based carriers for peptide-based drugs (e.g. cancer), and biopesticides delivery. Beyond the laboratory, he finds great fulfillment in his role as a teacher and researcher, guiding and supporting four Ph.D. and two MSc students on their academic quests. To foster a collaborative environment, he warmly welcomes anyone with a zeal for furthering their studies or engaging in knowledge sharing and collaboration. Together, they can make significant strides in the fascinating realm of peptide chemistry and its applications. Background/Experience:
