Zalikha Ibrahim received her BSc (Hons) in Petroleum Chemistry from Universiti Putra Malaysia in year 2008. She continued her intellectual journey at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia and was awarded MSc in Chemistry in 2011. During her MSc, she collected experiences working on a quantitative structure-activity relationship project for her dissertation. She received her doctoral in Computational and Theoretical Chemistry from Universiti Putra Malaysia in 2017. Her PhD thesis related on elucidation of inhibition mechanism of ligands/inhibitors towards a calcium-dependent protein. She was awarded with IPTA Academic Training Scheme (SLAI) from International Islamic University Malaysia and Ministry of Higher Education throughout her doctoral study.
