For the Final Year Project, I am working with molecular assessment entitle The Phylogeny of Rhinolophus species (Family: Rhinolophidea) inferred from COI gene. Knowing that the phylogeny of genus Rhinolophus inferred from cytochrome b have been generated by previous studies which only focuses on the mitochondrial DNA, I would like to re-construct the phylogenetic tree of this genus using COI gene, another part of mtDNA and interested to know how the phylogenetic relationship may differ from the one that using cyt b. I expect that upon completion of this study, more information about this genus have been generated thus contribute to future researches. Email : [email protected] |

My final year project is research on the Biogeography of Sunda Shrew (Crocidura monticola) based on Genetics and Morphology. The project is mainly on sampling of the shrew from different chosen localities in Malaysia which is divided into three parts which is in Sabah, Sarawak and in Peninsular Malaysia. These captured specimens will be further analysed genetically and morphologically. The purpose of my study is to determine whether the species differ in genetic or morphological structure according to their geographically isolated habitats. Email: [email protected] |

My title is "A Land Based Survey on Irrawaddy Dolphins(Orcaella brevirostris) Social Structure around Santubong Area" My survey focuses on collecting baseline data on the activity patterns and habitat use of Irrawaddy dolphins around the area of Santubong. My passion and ambition has always been on dolphins from a very young age and I wish to produce viable results through this survey to help raise awareness on marine mammals and their conservation needs by promulgating findings through my research. Not much study has been done on these cetaceans and I envisage the information gathered from this study could provide a basis for conservation management strategies and to develop a proper and sustainable dolphin watching industry around the area of study as it is a prominent tourist spot.
