Awis Sukarni Bin Mohmad Sabere graduated with a B.Sc (Hons) in Analytical and Environmental
Chemistry from Universiti Malaysia Terengganu in 2008. He then pursued and obtained his Master's
degree in Chemistry from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia in 2012. It was during this time that IIUM
recognized his potential and awarding him with the highly competitive SLAB/SLAI scholarship to
pursue his Ph.D at the School of Pharmacy, University College London. Dr. Awis successfully defended
his doctoral thesis entitled "Formulation and characterization of conventional and 3D printed minitabletsand inserts for ocular use" on 14th of June 2016.
Dr. Awis has strong research interest in thermal analysis, pharmaceutical systems and drug design. His
primary work revolves around optimizing ophthalmic drug delivery, which has been a major challenge
among formulation scientists. He has presented his works in several international conferences worldwide.
Presently Dr. Awis is an Assistant Professor at the Pharmaceutical Chemistry Department, Kulliyyah
of Pharmacy, IIUM.
