Introduction to Proteomics Analysis Workshop

This workshop will focus on the introduction to proteomics analysis through theory and hands-on.

Postgraduate students (Master and PhD students), Post Doctorate, Academicians and Researchers (Government and non-government institution)

• Dr. Ahmad Faris bin Seman @ Kamarulzaman is a senior lecturer at the Faculty of Applied Sciences, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Pahang. He holds a PhD in Systems Biology from the Institute of Systems Biology (INBIOSIS), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), where his research focused on integrating transcriptomic and proteomic data to uncover molecular targets for pest control in Rhynchophorus ferrugineus. He also holds a Master’s degree in Systems Biology and a Bachelor’s degree in Plant Biotechnology.

• With a strong foundation in proteomics, transcriptomics, and computational biology, Dr. Faris brings years of hands-on experience in omics-driven research. His passion lies in making complex data analysis more approachable and applicable, especially for researchers and students venturing into bioinformatics and molecular biology.

• He is one of the contributing authors of the Introduction to Proteomics Analysis Workshop Practical Handbook and has developed a copyrighted module on managing technical and biological replicates in proteomics using Perseus. His teaching approach focuses on bridging theory with real-world application, offering practical skills that can be immediately applied in research.

• Dr. Faris believes that proteomics holds the key to answering many unanswered biological questions, and he hopes to empower more researchers to harness its potential. He can be reached at afkamarulzaman@uitm.edu.my.
