Suzaini M. Zaid is currently teaching at the Department of Building Surveying in the Faculty of Built Environment and was the first EcoCampus Coordinator in Universiti Malaya. Suzaini holds a PhD in Planning and Urban Development from the Faculty of the Built Environment, University of New South Wales. Suzaini was part of the testing of the United Nations Environment Programme’s Sustainable Building and Climate Initiative (UNEP-SBCI)’s Common Carbon Metric and Protocol in the Malaysian context through her PhD research.    Her current research interest focuses on green intervention strategies through vertical greenery systems, operational energy, and user behaviour, which accumulated in multiple journal publications and her first book titled “Human Impact on Climate Change: Mitigation and Adaptation in the Built Environment”. She has teaching experience in the fields of building surveying, urban planning, and sustainable development.    Suzaini is also a professionally certified Green Building Index (GBI) Facilitator and a Malaysian Carbon Reduction and Environmental Sustainability Tool (MyCREST) Qualified Professional.

In 2017,  after completing my PhD at The University of Sydney, I joined the Pharmacology Department, Universiti Malaya as a senior lecturer. My research interest is in groups of molecules secreted during cellular stress, injury, and inflammation called damage-associated molecular pattern molecules (DAMPs). They have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various inflammatory diseases and cancer. My aim is to better understand their secretory pathway(s) and the mechanism(s) by which they contribute to cancer development and progression, especially in colorectal cancer. I hope that with more profound knowledge in these areas, more future studies will be conducted, paving the way for discovering novel pathways that can be targeted to combat cancer.  In addition to my interest in inflammation and cancer research, I am also passionate about teaching.  I am involved in teaching Pharmacology subjects for various Bachelor degree courses including Dentistry, Nursing, Medicine, and Biomedical Science. I am also the coordinator of Biomedical Science in the Pharmacology department.
