Dr. Lim Siew Huah is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Malaya (UM), where she specializes in Natural Products Chemistry and Bioorganic Chemistry. She earned her Ph.D. (2013), M.Sc. (2007), and B.Sc. (Hons.) (2004) from UM, and her research focuses on isolating and studying bioactive compounds from Malaysian plants, particularly alkaloids, for potential applications in health sciences and biotechnology. Dr. Lim has extensive experience in teaching both undergraduate and postgraduate students and has been actively involved in curriculum development. She teaches courses in organic chemistry and molecular spectroscopy, incorporating contemporary research findings into her teaching. She previously served as the Undergraduate Program Coordinator for the B.Sc. Chemistry program, where she oversaw academic planning and program improvements. In addition to lecturing, she supervises final-year undergraduate research projects (FYP) and mentors MSc and PhD students in organic and natural products chemistry, guiding them in phytochemical investigations and structural elucidation of bioactive compounds. Her research focuses on natural products chemistry, particularly the isolation, structural elucidation, and spectroscopic characterization of plant-derived secondary metabolites. She specializes in the study of alkaloids, employing advanced spectroscopic techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry to determine the structures of complex natural compounds. Her work extends to the chemical modification of natural products to understand their structure-activity relationships and enhance their potential applications. Her research explores the diverse flora of Malaysia to uncover bioactive natural compounds with potential therapeutic relevance. Investigations include the structural modification of natural products to explore their chemical properties and interactions, particularly in cancer-related studies, skin brightening effects, and other health-related applications. Through her work, she contributes to the advancement of natural products chemistry and its role in biomedical research.

ChM. Dr Muhammad Fauzi Abd Jalil hold a PhD in Pharmacy from University College London, UK. He also has a master's in engineering (Bioprocess) from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia and Degree in Biotechnology from International Islamic University Malaysia. He started his career in Biocon Sdn Bhd as an Associate in Quality Assurance department and later he moved to Drug Product department. In Biocon, he gained experienced on handling the QA and cGMP related documents, large scale Insulin manufacturing, revised the Batch Manufacturing Records and spearheaded Continued Process Verification Report. Later in his career he joint Sumitomo Chemical Enviro Agro Sdn Bhd as the Deputy Manager in Formulation department, later known as the Chemistry department. In Sumitomo, he was responsible to develop, improve and innovate new formulation or product for insecticide.  Currently, he is interested in improving the delivery of high potential drug but with poor absorption and permeation at the targeted area via various type of formulations and techniques. AI and 3D printing also are one of the areas that he wants to develop especially for personalized medicine. With a diversified experienced in Pharmaceutical and insecticide industry he welcomes any type of collaboration in future.
