Dr. Noor Adwa research focuses on the converge of auditing, governance and reporting and using both qualitative (interviews) and quantitative (archival and survey) research approaches and multiple theoretical lens (institutional, legitimacy, power, attribution and agency). Her research among others relate to audit committee and other board effectiveness, internal audit, audit quality, auditor reporting, governance and sustainability.

Eng.) in Engineering Physics, Electronics and Mechanics (Electronics Major) in 2007, and Doctorate Degree (D. Eng.) in Engineering Physics, Electronics and Mechanics (Electronics Major) in 2010, all from Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan. His postgraduate research was focused on gallium nitride (GaN) – based semiconductor epitaxy by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and device fabrications, especially GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LED) grown on silicon (Si) substrate and GaN-based laser diodes (LD) grown on free-standing GaN substrate. Dr Ahmad Shuhaimi has obtained valuable experience in the realm of epitaxy and device fabrications under supervision of Professor Dr Takashi Egawa (one of the pioneers in gallium nitride epitaxy research). After joining Universiti Malaya in July 2010, Dr Ahmad Shuhaimi has been committed in setting up Malaysia's first MOCVD growth facility at Low Dimensional Materials Research Centre (LDMRC) University of Malaya. He currently leads Nitride Semiconductor Laboratory which houses full spectrum of capabilities for epitaxy, fabrication and analysis of nitride-based optoelectronics and power devices, including Taiyo Nippon Sanso Corporation's SR2000 and SR5000 MOCVDs, PE-ALD, ICP, Metallization, Photolithography, HR-XRD, AFM, etc. He obtained many research grants provided by Ministry of Higher Education, CREST, etc as well as donation from local industries. His group is in active collaboration with several semiconductor manufacturers and other research institutes/laboratories in Malaysia and overseas. His group interest is epitaxy of polar and non-polar GaN on sapphire, silicon and free-standing gallium nitride substrates for light-emission and power electronic devices.

He graduated with a B.Sc. majoring in aquaculture before pursuing his research in fish reproductive for his M.Sc. in NTOU, Taiwan. He obtained his Ph.D. in Fisheries Science from the NTOU in 2009 for doctoral work on taxonomy and molecular phylogeny of moray eels (Mureanidae). After his Ph.D., he spent one year at the Biodiversity Research Center, Academia Sinica, Taiwan as a postdoctoral researcher. He joined IOES July 2011 as a research fellow. He’s team have discovery eight new species eels (Gymnothorax pseudokidako 2021, Gymnothorax pseudomelanosomatus 2015, Neenchelys gracilis 2015, Pylorobranchus hoi 2012, Gymnothorax melanosomatus 2011, Uropterygius oligospondylus 2008, Gymnothorax taiwanensis 2008, Gymnothorax shaoi 2007), and a lot of new recorded fishes from Malaysia, Indonesia, China, Japan, and Taiwan. In addition to studying Malaysian fish otoliths, he is also working on the fisheries assessment work on sharks and rays. A total of 47 ISI articles have been published, and 26 technical reports of the IUCN Sciaenidae Red List assessments in 2020. He has collaborative research on the genetic diversity, population genetics of marine organisms; Reef fish diversity and abundance in Malaysian water through DNA barcoding and eDNA in Malaysia. Another study focuses on microplastics in the gill and stomach of fish. He recently secured a research grant to “Resolving systematics of Cephalopods using morphological and molecular approaches in Malaysia”, and “Environment DNA matebarcoding illuminates the diversity of sharks and rays” funded by WWF-Malaysia.
