I am a public health physician, occupational health doctor and medical lecturer at the Department of Community Medicine, School of Medical Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), Kubang Kerian, Kelantan. I apply artificial intelligence, machine learning and digital health to problems in population health, occupational health, workforce protection and health system preparedness. I completed my Master of Public Health (2018) and Doctor of Public Health (2022) at USM, and worked as a Public Health Medicine Specialist in the Ministry before joining USM in 2023. In 2025, I completed digital health and AI training with Imperial College London, Vanderbilt University and The BiteLabs, USA. At USM, I am Deputy Chief of the Digital Health Unit and coordinate courses across the DrPH, MPH and undergraduate medical programmes, including Health System Management, Public Health Epidemiology, Occupational Health and Digital Medicine. I supervise PhD, DrPH, MPH, MSc and MMed students. My research covers prediction models in occupational health, machine learning for hospital and clinical outcomes, AI-enabled disaster preparedness, and generative AI in health. I welcome collaboration in AI for health, occupational health and digital health implementation. Contact: drafiqrahim@usm.my | ORCID 0000-0002-0917-2728
