The Institute for Research in Molecular Medicine (INFORMM) at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) proudly congratulates Ts Dr Khairul Mohd Fadzli Mustaffa on securing two research grants totaling RM294,000.00.
The first award is a GET-FRGS grant of RM149,000.00 dedicated to unraveling the internalization mechanisms of cholesterol-TEG-tagged DNA aptamers in Plasmodium falciparum-infected red blood cells through the lipid-raft endocytosis pathway. This work advances fundamental knowledge in targeted therapeutic delivery against malaria.
In addition, Dr Khairul secured an Industry Grant of RM145,000.00 from B. Braun (Malaysia) to conduct comparative in vitro analyses of blood coagulation pathways across human, bovine, and rabbit models using monoclonal antibody inhibition assays.
Together, these achievements highlight INFORMM’s dual commitment to advancing high-impact fundamental research and strengthening strategic industry-academic partnerships that drive practical biomedical innovations.
