Biography

Dr. Edinur Hisham Atan is currently working as Lecturer at Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia. He has completed his Ph.D. in Cell and Molecular Biology from Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. He has supervised 1 graduate student and currently supervising 2 MSc and 2 PhD students. His research has focused on using new and existing Molecular Technologies to survey Immune Systems (i.e. HLA, KIR, cytokine and MICA), blood group, HNA and HPA genes in several populations including Polynesians, Orang Asli and Malays, the data collected have significant value in ancestry and health including tissue matching for transfusion and transplant surgery, disease resistance and the relative incidence of autoimmune disease in these populations. He has also proposed several studies to search for candidate genes associated with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Hypertensive Preeclampsia and Spina Bifida. He has published 28 research articles in journals contributed as author/co-author. He also completed 3 international grants.
