Bibliography: Professor Dr Wan Haliza Abd. Majid (2021)   Dr Wan Haliza Abd. Majid graduated with Bachelor in Physics from University College of Wales, Aberystwyth, UK in 1988. Initially, she worked in the Physics department, University Malaya as a tutor from 1990-91 while she was completing her Master’s Degree. Upon completing her PhD in 1994 from the University of Sheffield (UK), she was attached to the Matriculation Centre (PASUM) from 1994-2000, University Malaya as a lecturer before transferring to the Physics Department in 2000. Currently, her research interest is related to pyroelectric and ferroelectric properties of organic materials, fabrication and device characterization of an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) and photo-sensing and signal processing of biomaterials, quantum dots, and their applications. She has participated in many seminars, workshops, conferences and community engagement projects related to the Physics education program. Her involvement in research led her to lead (Principle Investigator) various research grants since the year 2000 which include, Short Term Research Fund (PJP-UM), University Malaya Research Grant (UMRG), High Impact Research Grant (HIR-UM), Exploratory Research Grant Scheme (ERGS-MOHE), ScienceFund (MOSTI), Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS-MOHE) and Long Term Research Grant (LRGS-MOHE).  She has been invited as one of the panel reviewers/evaluators for various grants awarded by MOHE and MOSTI at the university and national level since 2012.

She is committed to equipping graduates at the tertiary level with knowledge, technology and values that can be used to interact positively with society at large.

Senior Lecturer with 16 years of experience in qualitative and quantitative research spanning differential geometry, general relativity, modified gravity and cosmology. Earned a Ph.D. in manifold theory and has since published 60 peer-reviewed journal articles. Brings a decade of undergraduate teaching and mentoring, service on multiple academic committees, supervision of eight undergraduate and postgraduate researchers, and leadership on six competitive, high-impact research projects.

Dr Surina Zaman Huri is a Geriatric Psychiatrist and Medical Lecturer at the Faculty of Medicine, Universiti Malaya. She obtained her Doctor of Medicine (MD) from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia in 2002 and later completed her Master of Medicine (Psychiatry) at Universiti Sains Malaysia in 2012. She subsequently undertook a Fellowship in Geriatric Psychiatry (2020–2024) with the Ministry of Health Malaysia, which included overseas training at Changi General Hospital, Singapore. Her clinical practice focuses on the assessment and management of mental health conditions in older adults, including dementia, late-life depression, anxiety disorders, insomnia, and other geriatric psychiatric conditions. She has particular expertise in dementia care, with an emphasis on the management of behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) and the optimisation of quality of life for both patients and their caregivers. Her research interests include sleep disorders in older adults and dementia, with a particular focus on the interaction between sleep disturbances, cognitive decline, and behavioural and psychological symptoms, as well as their impact on cognitive and emotional health in later life. She also has a strong interest in understanding and addressing caregiver burden through the identification of caregivers’ needs and the development of supportive strategies to enhance well-being within the caregiving relationship.
