\n\nBismillahirahmanirahim,\nIn the name of Allah, the Almighty.\n\nAlhamdulillah. It is my responsibility becoming a new director of Centre for Sustainable\nNanomaterials, or it is well-known as CSNano. My education background is chemistry (BSc\n(Industrial Chemistry), MSc (Chemistry), PhD (Chemistry)) and all of my tertiary level of\neducations are from Faculty of Science, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. My main affiliate is\nDepartment of Biosciences, Faculty of Science, UTM and because of this, my research\nexpertise is applied materials science for biological and medical areas. I am professional\nchemist (ChM) under Malaysian Institute of Chemistry and Chartered Chemist (CChem)\nunder Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), UK. Being a director for CSNano, my main aim for\nthis centre is to lead a re-known centre for research and development in sustainable\nnanomaterials area nationally and globally.\n\nCSNano is under Ibnu Sina Institute for Scientific and Industrial Research (ISI-SIR), UTM\nand the mission is to grow into a centre-of-excellence for conducting advanced research,\ndevelopment, and demonstration of fundamental and applied science research in materials\nsciences for the global impact. Our main R&D is focusing on sustainable nanomaterials\nwhere the development of nanomaterials are based on sustainable approaches and also, the\nsustainable application of nanomaterials. The research areas in CSNano includes but not\nlimited to heterogeneous catalysts, porous nanomaterials, supramolecular functional\nnanomaterials, nano\/molecular photochemistry, biomaterials, green biosynthesis\nnanoparticles, semiconductor nanostructures, analytical science, separation chemistry,\norganometallic chemistry, physics of low dimensional structure, quantum chemistry and\nFussy modelling. Beside R&D, our aim include dissemination of knowledge related to\nnanotechnology, nanomaterials, nanoparticles, nanocomposite etc. and their application in\nvarious fields. CSNano will grab possible opportunities and works together in various\npartnership in enhancing our fields and fostering the growth of nanomaterials at national\nlevels as well as international levels.\n\nFor more information, please explore our website (https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/)\n\nDirector of CSNano,\n\nAssoc Prof ChM Dr Nik Ahmad Nizam Nik Malek, PhD, CChem, MRSC, MMIC\nniknizam@utm.my\nhttps:\/\/people.utm.my\/niknizam","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-7950","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7950","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11482"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7950"}],"version-history":[{"count":26,"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7950\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16228,"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/7950\/revisions\/16228"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
