https://ukmsarjana.ukm.my/ As a pioneer in the field of Metabolomics in Malaysia, Syarul Nataqain Baharum's research is focused on new insights into analytical and biological perspectives on metabolomics in the field of systems biology, particularly on the understanding of secondary metabolite production in local herb plants as well as fluxomics studies of Lactococcus lactis. In metabolomics research, a pipeline of analytical tools and multivariate analysis using PCA are essential for dynamic high-throughput analysis. Pioneering analysis that includes mathematical modelling has provided a glimpse into the cellular biology and fingerprint of functional networks in model organisms in her lab. Baharum has published over 70 peer-reviewed indexed articles in international journals and more than 40 local and international conference proceedings in aquaculture, microbiology and metabolomics. Her work has been awarded prestigious awards including BioInnovation Awards, 2011, and Selangor My Innovation Award, 2014. Baharum also served as a Visiting Lecturer at Chulalongkorn University, Thailand, in 2017. She played a leading role as a Malaysia representative in the Asia-Oceania Metabolomics Forum (AOMF). She is also engaged in collaborative partnerships with industry such as FGV Sdn. Bhd., AAR Sdn. Bhd., Leave a Nest Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. and Orchid Life Sdn. Bhd. to take further steps to commercialization.
