Raihana Abdul Wahab's main research interest is on the Islamic Astronomy, particularly in Observational Astronomy. She graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Shariah major in Islamic Astronomy from the Universiti Malaya and holds a Ph.D. in Islamic Astronomy from University Malaya in 2014.  Since 2015, she appointed as a Senior Lecturer for Islamic Astronomy Programme under the Department of Fiqh-Usul and Applied Sciences, Academy of Islamic Studies, Universiti Malaya. She has been invited to deliver talks about several topics in Islamic Astronomy Research in Malaysia. Her completed research project is a Sky Brightness Research for Determination of Early Fajr Prayer Times funded by University of Malaya. Furthermore, she was the Principle Investigator of the fatwa research grant that was awarded by JAKIM for the Reevaluation of the Sun’s Altitude for Determination Beginning of Fajr Prayer Times in Malaysia. The findings of this research was presented to Fatwa Research and Management Committee, JAKIM and National Council for Islamic Religious Affairs of Malaysia (MKI). At the end of November 2019, several states announce earlier compared to other states on changes of beginning for Fajr prayer time to average 8 minutes later than the existing prayer time calendar. On April 21, 2020, the State of Kelantan announced the changes of the early Fajr prayer time. Therefore, all states in Malaysia have adopted the parameters of this research. She has also awarded a community research grant entitled Bringing Astronomy Community to Educate People under the University of Malaya Community Engagement Center (UMCares) research fund from 2018-2020. Her current research is Application of The Digital Imaging Techniques in the Observation of the Young Crescent Moon from the Perspective of Shariah and Astronomy.  She has written more than 10 articles in international and local journals. Due to her extensive experience in the research work that has been carried out, she has been appointed by the Perak State Mufti Department as one of the members of the Falak committee for the State of Perak from 2018 until present. She also has been appointed as Islamic Astronomy Expert Panel for Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM) from 2024-2025.

Dr. Saaidal Razalli Azzuhri holds a BEng in Telecommunication from the University of Malaya. After graduation, he began his career as a Wireless Network Engineer at eB Technologies, a second-tier Internet Service Provider (ISP) in Malaysia. He later joined Telekom Malaysia, the country’s largest ISP, where he worked as a Network Engineer. He pursued his MSc in IT at the Malaysia University of Science and Technology (MUST), through a collaborative program with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). In 2014, he completed his PhD in Wireless Network Systems at the University of Queensland, Australia, with a research focus on wireless ad-hoc routing systems. He is currently serving as an Associate Professor at the Department of Computer System & Technology, Faculty of Computer Science & Information Technology, University of Malaya. In 2018, Dr. Saaidal established the university's first Blockchain Technology Lab using private funding. He later secured a government-to-government research grant to study transborder blockchain infrastructure between China and Malaysia, sponsored by the publicly-listed company MyEG Services Berhad. He has also received government and industry grants for artificial intelligence applications in wireless communications and drone systems, as well as an International Newton Mobility Grant for optical microfiber research. Dr. Saaidal holds two patents related to unmanned aerial vehicles and fiber optic biosensors. He is frequently invited by the media to provide expert commentary on cybersecurity, 5G networks, and other technology issues. His areas of expertise encompass wireless networks, mobile ad-hoc networks, autonomous systems, fiber lasers, fiber sensors and Blockchain. Some of Dr. Saaidal's media appearances include: ‘UM Miliki Makmal Teknologi Blockchain’, Utusan Malaysia, Nov 13, 2018 ‘UM Tubuh Makmal Teknologi Blockchain’, Berita Harian, Nov 15 2018 ‘Makmal Blockchain UM’, Harian Metro, Nov 25 2018 ‘Malaysia Perlu Tingkatkan Keselamatan Cyber Terutama Menuju Era 5G’, Buletin Pagi TV3, 24 Jan 2019 'Industri Halal Di Indonesia Butuh Dukungan Teknologi dan Inovasi', Ayo Bandung Portal, 29 September 2020 'Malaysia and China Collaborate to Enhance Cross-Border Supply Chain Traceability', Digital News Asia, 17 February 2023 'Malaysia hormati perjanjian dengan Ericsson, terbuka bekerjasama dengan pihak lain', Benar News Portal, 5 March 2023'Malaysia bincang kerjasama dengan Elon Musk, SpaceX bantu capaian akses internet', Malaysia Institute of Economic Research (MIER) News Portal, 18 July 2023 'MyEG, UM to include AI technology in collaborative research with China' The Star, 14 Jun 2023 'Watch what Dr Saaidal and Dr Kamarul of University Malaya have to say about 5G technology and how it will change our lives! #5GMalaysia', Richard Ker Tik Tok channel (Digital Media and Technology Influencer), 29 December 2023

Dr. Nuradilla Mohamad Fauzi is a senior lecturer at the Institute of Biological Sciences, Faculty of Science, Universiti Malaya (UM). She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Biotechnology and a Ph.D. degree in Genetics, both from University of California, Davis, USA. She seeks to understand how organisms respond to stress and adapt to the environment by using techniques in molecular biology and biotechnology, towards the goal of conservation of ecosystems and agricultural sustainability. Her ongoing projects are clustered in two main areas: 1) stress and reproduction in small ruminant livestock (agriculture), and 2) coral reef restoration and ecology of marine organisms. Working together with other livestock biotechnology researchers in UM, she is investigating the effects of temperature-humidity stress in the tropics on the physiology and reproduction of sheep, as well as the population genetics of Barbados Blackbelly sheep in Peninsular Malaysia. Within the marine context, she investigated the relationship between light availability, photosynthetic performance and photosymbiont association in sea anemones off the coast of Johor, Malaysia. She is one of the principal investigators in Project PULIH (Protecting Underwater Life through Integrated reHabilitation), in which she is examining the relationship between molecular age and regeneration of hard corals for improving coral restoration success rates, and exploring the diversity of crustose coralline algae, an important foundational organism in coral reefs, in Malaysia through molecular tools.
