Amir is a syntactician who mainly conducts research on the syntax of copular constructions but also has an interest in other areas of grammar such as extraction, expletives, morphosyntax, historical syntax, and typology (especially that of the Austronesian languages). He was awarded a PhD in Linguistics and English language by the University of Edinburgh and an MA in Linguistics by University College London, the thesis of both of which focused on copular constructions in Malay specifically. In addition to his expertise in Malay theoretical/descriptive morphosyntax, he is also au fait with the literature on English morphosyntax and has a firm grasp on phonology as well as pedagogy, owing to his Bachelor's degree in TESL from UiTM. . . . . Those looking to conduct research in the fields of syntax, morphology, and their applications in other areas, are welcome to enquire. I am able to supervise students who would like to focus on languages other than English or Malay as well.

Dr. Nurul Nadhirah, a Senior Lecturer at the Glami Lemi Biotechnology Research Centre, Universiti Malaya, is a renowned researcher in plant biotechnology. She has specialized expertise in the tissue culture of fern species and selected crop plants, making significant contributions to the understanding and cultivation of these plants for both scientific and practical applications.       In addition to her work in plant tissue culture, Dr. Nadhirah has extensive knowledge in taxonomy, systematics, and biodiversity of ferns (pteridophytes). Her academic interests are centered on exploring the vast diversity of ferns, studying their classification, and understanding their ecological roles in different environments. She obtained her PhD in Botany from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, where her research focused on spore culture of various fern species found in Malaysia.      She has published numerous papers on plant tissue culture, fern taxonomy, and biodiversity, establishing her as an expert in the field. She is an active participant in scientific expeditions, collaborating with government and NGOs, to collect valuable data on plant species and contribute to conservation efforts aimed at protecting Malaysia's natural heritage.

Vinnie Siow Wei Yin is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Tropical Infectious Diseases Research and Education Centre (TIDREC), Higher Education Center of Excellence (HICoE) specializing in molecular parasitology and entomology. She holds a PhD in Molecular Parasitology from Universiti Malaya, where her studies focused on the association of filarial parasites with their hosts and vectors. She also earned a Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Science (First Class Honours) from Management and Science University, where she received an Industrial Award for her outstanding contributions. Dr. Vinnie’s primary expertise lies in  filarial parasites, insect vectors, molecular analysis, insecticide resistance, and proteomic analysis. Her current research interests focus on insect vectors that play important roles in both medical and veterinary contexts, along with their associated infectious disease agents. She is committed to unraveling the complex relationships between insects and their parasites, particularly in the context of public health. Additionally, she has experience in the detection of soil-transmitted helminth diseases among the Orang Asli communities. Her research aims to develop innovative strategies for controlling vector-borne diseases, striving to make a significant impact in the field and improve health outcomes in affected communities. In her future endeavors, She aspires to lead impactful projects that bridge research and practical solutions in the fight against infectious diseases.
