Nurul Izza Zakaria

Nurul Izza Zakaria works as a Science Officer (Microbiology) at the Department of Pathology, Hospital Tengku Ampuan Afzan in Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia. Her postgraduate journey focused on the pathophysiology of malaria, including the mechanisms underlying the disease’s progression and the factors that contribute to its persistence in various regions.

Being part of the MESA Correspondents Program is a tremendous privilege, one that I approach with great enthusiasm and gratitude. This program provides an invaluable opportunity to explore the latest advancements in malaria research and develop my writing skills.
