Hello ,

My name is Ms. Zykamilia Kamin.

I am an academician and a researcher in the Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS).

My primary work at the moment is to produce nanofiber through our nanofiber production facility in our Faculty.

Subsequently, my research interests are in Energy, Nanofiber, and Chemical Engineering.

COVID -19 Research

As a contribution to the issue caused by COVID-19 pandemic, I extended my research area in food engineering and technology, where my team and I are involved in processing vegetables to extend their shelf life.

We are doing this, in the hope to secure the food distribution chain, and also the economic vulnerabilities of our small holder farmers during this difficult time.

Feel free to contact me at zykamilia@ums.edu.my to know more about UMS research initiatives and how does these initiatives could be an innovative solution for your community or company.

Think forward & execute with excellence.
