How it started
Dan received a USM fellowship scheme in 2014, and then an offer for his Doctorate study at the School of Chemistry, University of Bristol in 2015. Dan joined the Soft Matter group under the supervision of Professor Paul Bartlett at Physical and Theoretical Chemistry department in Bristol. The dream continued for 4 years at Bristol, and he came back to Malaysia in Aug 2019, started as a lecturer at the School of Materials and Mineral Resources Engineering USM in November 2019.

Chemistry Tutoring
Dan spent more than 3 years as a Physical Chemistry tutor for Bristol ChemLabS- Undergraduate teaching laboratory at Bristol. The responsibility of tutor/ demonstrator is similar to educator where Dan was responsible for lab teaching and assessment. The experience gave him a more thorough understanding and fundamental knowledge of Physical Chemistry, and the passion to teach grew even bigger since then! Bristol ChemLabS was among the best chemistry teaching labs in the UK! The lab is equipped with advanced instruments and an interactive state-of-art laboratory assessment and experimental systems.
