Featured Speakers

Prof. Kenneth Kam-Wing Lo
Associate Editor, Inorganic Chemistry
Department of Chemistry, City University of Hong Kong
Prof. Kenneth Lo obtained his BSc (1993) and PhD (1997) degrees at The University of Hong Kong. His Ph.D. work centered on the design of luminescent transition metal complexes as DNA and metal-ion probes; and the photophysical and photochemical studies of luminescent polynuclear coinage metal chalcogenide complexes. From 1997 to 1999, he worked as a Croucher Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the research groups of Prof H. Allen O. Hill, FRS and Dr Luet-Lok Wong of the Inorganic Chemistry Laboratory, University of Oxford. He carried out research work on genetic engineering and electrochemistry of cytochrome P450cam and putidaredoxin. Prof Lo joined the Department of Biology and Chemistry (currently Department of Chemistry) of City University of Hong Kong as Assistant Professor in 1999 and became Associate Professor (Scale B) in 2003, Associate Professor (Scale A) in 2007, and Professor in 2011. He is currently the Program Leader of BSc (Hons) Chemistry. At the College level, he is a member of the College Board. At the University level, he is currently on the University Research Committee and a member of the Working Group of Applied R & D. Prof. Lo’s research interest is the utilization of luminescent inorganic and organometallic transition metal complexes as biomolecular and cellular probes, with a focus on the development of intracellular sensors, photoactive labels, and bioimaging reagents. He received The APA Prize for Young Scientist from The Asian and Oceanian Photochemistry Association in 2005 and The Distinguished Lectureship Award from The Chemical Society of Japan in 2011. He was awarded a Croucher Senior Research Fellowship from the Croucher Foundation in 2015. He was one of the Chairs of the Gordon Research Conference Metals in Medicine 2018 and is the Chair of the 23rd International Symposium of the Photochemistry and Photophysics of Coordination Compounds (ISPPCC 2019). He was on the Editorial Advisory Board of Inorganic Chemistry (2015 to 2017) and the Advisory Board of RSC Advances from 2013 to 2015 He served as an Associate Editor for RSC Advances from 2015 to 2020 and has been an Associate Editor for Inorganic Chemistry since 2020.

Habibah A. Wahab, Ph.D.
Associate Editor, Journal of Chemical Information & Modeling
Dean of School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University Sains Malaysia
Habibah A Wahab is currently the Dean of School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia. Prior to that she served as the Director General of Malaysian Institute of Pharmaceuticals and Nutraceuticals, Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation. In 1999, she found a research group “Pharmaceutical Design and Simulation (PhD)” which focuses on research on drug discovery especially those utilizing structural bioinformatics and computer aided drug design approaches. With this research passion, Habibah organizes a yearly event Computer Aided Drug Design Workshop and Seminar (CADD) which is held at different cities around South East Asia including Penang, Langkawi, Kuala Lumpur, Bali and Bandung. Currently Habibah is an Associate Editor of Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling.

Dr. Fung Fun Man
Editorial Advisory Board Member, Journal of Chemical Education
National University of Singapore
Dr. Fun Man Fung obtained his Ph.D, at National University of Singapore in 2020. He is a Singaporean teaching Chemistry at the National University of Singapore. He was a former Assistant Director of Education at the NUS Institute for Applied Learning Sciences & Education Technology. He is the elected secretary of the International Younger Chemists Network (IYCN). He is passionate about education, mentorship, youth empowerment, and civic engagement. Fuelled by his desire to make science and learning accessible to as wide an audience as possible, videos exhibiting the use of these tools are extensively featured on Fun Man’s educational YouTube Channel. The multimedia has benefited 20k learners from over 112 countries including Kenya, Jordan, Bulgaria, Uruguay, and Jamaica, with over 3.5 million views. Fun Man has delivered invited keynotes and seminars at Stanford University, University of Cambridge, ETH Zurich, EPF Lausanne, OECD, Sciences Po, University of Hong Kong, Sorbonne Université, etc. For this passion for teaching and learning, Fun Man was conferred the 2021 NUS Annual Digital Education Award, University Annual Teaching Excellence Award, and NUS Faculty Teaching Excellence Award. He is a distinguished recipient of the D2L award Innovation in Teaching and Learning and QS-Wharton STAR Reimagine Education Awards for his effort in innovative teaching and learning approaches.
