作者簡介
Amy Poh Ai Ling, Ph.D., is an internationally recognized multidisciplinary researcher known for her pioneering work on digital technology security in electrical systems since 2010. She holds two Ph.D. degrees and uniquely received Student Role Model Awards at every academic level (B.B.A., M.Sc., Ph.D.), reflecting her broad expertise in economic management, mathematical sciences, and engineering. Bridging academia and industry, Amy brings cross-sectoral insights in business development, the circular economy, safety engineering, data processing, and statistical modeling. Her honors include the Rescale Honorable Mention Award (USA), the Edison Award (Malaysia), national science recognitions from Japan and Malaysia, and seven academic scholarships. She is the Founder and Director of the Malaysia-Japan Academic Association and Chair of MJVC2024. In 2023, she was named a "Rising Star" at the Asian Deans' Forum for her research excellence and leadership.
Huong Kai Hee, Ph.D., is a scientist specializing in harnessing microorganisms as cell factories to produce biochemicals and biopolymers. He earned his PhD from Universiti Sains Malaysia in 2017 and has over six years of post-PhD academic and industrial research experience in Malaysia, Japan, and Singapore. His research integrates applied microbiology, biochemistry, metabolic engineering, and bioprocess technology to engineer and enhance the bioproduction of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) - microbially made, fully biodegradable polyesters derived from renewable resources. He is particularly interested in applying synthetic biology and green chemistry to advance sustainable bioproduction and support the circular bioeconomy. His work has been supported by the Toray Science Foundation (2013) and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science through the JSPS Postdoctoral Fellowship (2021-2022).
Fitriah Azizan, Ph.D., is an environmental researcher specialising in functional ecology, soil biodiversity, and carbon-nitrogen (C-N) dynamics in wetland ecosystems. She obtained her Ph.D. from Meiji University, Japan, where her research examined the role of soil microbial communities in regulating C-N processes and how land-use change and climate drivers influence ecosystem functions and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, particularly in the conversion of tropical peat swamp forests to agricultural lands. With a background in soil C-N biogeochemistry, she integrates field measurements with molecular analysis during her postdoctoral research at Meiji University to investigate soil microbial responses to alternative irrigation (wet-dry-wet) systems in Japanese paddy fields, with a particular focus on GHG emissions. In parallel, she expanded her expertise in molecular techniques to develop a transgenesis protocol for Bursaphelenchus okinawaensis, a genetically tractable model for plant-parasitic nematodes.
