Nor Azlan Nor Muhammad

I am a bioinformatics and computational systems biology researcher in Malaysia, based at the Institute of Systems Biology (INBIOSIS), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). My work sits at the interface of biology and data science: I apply artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and statistical modelling to make sense of large-scale biological datasets.

My research spans plant and microbial systems biology — from how plants biosynthesise sulfur-containing compounds and defence metabolites, to comparative and functional genomics of bacteria and fungi. I work with gene co-expression networks, multi-omics integration, and curated biological databases such as SuCComBase.
