(Hons.) Biodata: I joined the University of Malaya in 1978 and began research on organotin chemicals. I won the Third World Academy of Science Young Scientist Prize in 1990 for work in this field. My contribution to the research revolves around my discovery that the biocidal activity of such chemicals was significantly improved by the introduction of a 'spacer' unit between the organotin portion and the anionic portion of the molecule. I also addressed the problem of the solubility of bioactive chemicals in water: to render them more soluble, I converted them into an anionic form, and used an ammonium cation as counter-ion to balance the charge. The synthesis led to a new class of monomeric and oligomeric polyanionic organotin carboxylates. From anti-fungal chemicals, I extended my research to anti-tumor chemicals, and a similar method was used to confer higher aqueous solubility of the diorganotin class of compounds. In vitro tests of these compounds showed that their anti-tumor activity exceeded that of neoplastic drugs against cancer cell lines. In collaboration with crystallographers from abroad, I began publishing the crystal structures of organotin chemicals. My work in organotin chemistry won me the Malaysia Toray Science Foundation prize in 2000. I have published some work on laser dyes. After 2000, I left the chemical laboratory as well as organotin chemistry behind and turned to crystallography. I concentrated on the publication of crystal structures in collaboration with chemists from China who provided the diffraction measurements. Some of the results are reported in high impact-factor journals. The year that I spent a year in China (April 2003 to March 2004 as foreign professor in Xiamen and Sun Yat-Sen Universities) allowed me to establish extensive collaborative linkages with several universities. During this period, I was appointed as Co-Editor of Acta Crystallographica Section E. Perhaps the most visible acknowledgment of my contribution to crystallography are the awards of honorary professorships by universities there. I am certain that through my publications, a number of Chinese chemists now hold the University of Malaya in high regard. In my opinion, my most valuable contribution to crystallography in China is my manuscript on how to deal with disorder in the analysis of crystal structures. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Publications -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Citations: Fulbright Scholar (1979 1984) Third World Academy of Sciences Young Scientist (1991) Malaysia Toray Science Foundation Prize (2000) Main Group Metal Chemistry, Editorial board membe Applied Organometallic Chemistry, Editorial board member Co-Editor, Acta Crystallographica Section E (from 2003) Honorary professor, Fuyang Normal College (2004) Honorary professor, Xianning College (2005) Honorary professor, Central China Normal University (2005) Honorary professor, Guangxi Normal University(2005) Honorary professor, Harbin Normal University (2006) Honorary professor, Heilongjiang University (2004) Honorary professor, Luoyang Normal University (2005) Honorary professor, Northwest University (2006) Honorary professor, Qingdao University of Science and Technology (2004) Honorary professor, Qufu Normal University (2004) Honorary professor, Shantou University (2004) Honorary professor, Shanxi Normal University (2004) Honorary professor, Wenzhou Normal University (2002) Honorary professor, Yunnan University (2005) Honorary professor, Zhengzhou University (2005)
