BIOGRAPHY

 

Dr Wan Safwani Binti Wan Kamarul Zaman is currently a senior lecturer at the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Malaya. She received Master of Pharmacy (MPharm) from the University of Strathclyde, United Kingdom in 2003. After which she returned to Malaysia to complete the pharmacy provisional training at the University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC) from 2004 to 2005, as per requirement of the Pharmacy Board of Malaysia. She became a registered pharmacist in August 2005. In 2006, she received her MSc in Immunopharmacology, also from the University of Strathclyde, United Kingdom. In 2008, she was awarded the National Science Fellowship (NSF) from the Ministry of Science, Technology & Innovation (MOSTI), Malaysia allowing her to pursue and complete her PhD in 2012 at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (National University of Malaysia). She was also awarded the Hadiah Khalid Kadir for best postgraduate student in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia during the graduation ceremony.  

Dr Wan Safwani has contributed substantially in terms of publication and as a reviewer for various journals. Her research interest is on stem cells technology, regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. She has published more than 50 peer-reviewed articles including articles published in Scientific Reports, American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology and PLOS One. She currently has a h-index of 15 with more than 700 citations. She also supervises postgraduate students, both PhDs and Masters working on various collaborative projects mainly on stem cells research, tissue engineering and cancer research. Apart from that, she is a member of the Malaysian Pharmaceutical Society (MPS) and currently serves as the Exco member of the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine Society of Malaysia (TESMA). Outside of research and teaching, she is the co-Founder of the Let's Go to Mummies Lab program, which aims to promote STEM education to young children as part of community outreach program.
