   Biografi/ Biography :

  • Nazrul Anuar Nayan ialah seorang penyelidik, pendidik, dan usahawan dengan latar belakang yang kukuh dalam pemprosesan isyarat bioperubatan, mikroelektronik, dan IoT (Internet of Things). Beliau memperoleh Ijazah Sarjana Muda Kejuruteraan dalam Kejuruteraan Informasi & Komunikasi dari Universiti Tokyo pada tahun 1998. Beliau kemudiannya memperoleh Ijazah Sarjana Kejuruteraan dalam Kejuruteraan Elektrik & Elektronik, dan Ijazah Doktor Falsafah dalam Kejuruteraan Sistem Elektronik dan Informasi dari Universiti Gifu, Jepun pada tahun 2008 dan 2011. Selain itu, Dr. Nazrul telah mengikuti program penyelidikan pasca-doktoral selama dua tahun (2014-2016) di Institut Kejuruteraan Bioperubatan, Universiti Oxford, United Kingdom, di mana beliau juga merupakan Ahli Penyelidik Common Room, Kellogg College, Universiti Oxford dari 2015-2016. Kerjaya Dr. Nazrul merangkumi kedua-dua industri dan akademik. Sebelum memasuki dunia akademik, beliau memperoleh pengalaman industri yang luas, bermula sebagai Jurutera Reka Bentuk di Hitachi Limited, Tochigi, Jepun (1998-2000). Beliau kemudiannya bekerja sebagai Jurutera Ujian di Unisem Malaysia Berhad (2001-2003), Jurutera R&D Kanan di STATSChipPAC Malaysia (2003-2005), dan Penyelidik Akademik di MIMOS Berhad, Kuala Lumpur (2012). Selain peranan akademik dan industri, Dr. Nazrul kini merupakan CEO IDNA Ideas Sdn. Bhd., sebuah syarikat pemula UKM yang memberi tumpuan kepada penyelesaian inovatif. Dengan lebih daripada 13 projek penyelidikan sebagai Ketua Penyiasat dan lebih daripada 65 penerbitan, termasuk tiga buku, artikel jurnal, dan kertas persidangan, Dr. Nazrul telah membuat sumbangan yang signifikan dalam bidang penjagaan kesihatan, reka bentuk litar digital, dan komunikasi tanpa wayar. Minat penyelidikannya kini berkembang dalam bidang robotik berasaskan AI, IoT, dan pengaturcaraan blok dron, di mana beliau secara aktif melatih pelajar dan pendidik di Malaysia dan Indonesia, memperkenalkan mereka kepada teknologi terkini untuk aplikasi pendidikan dan industri. \
    Nazrul Anuar Nayan is a researcher, educator, and entrepreneur with a strong background in biomedical signal processing, microelectronics, and IoT (Internet of Things). He obtained his Bachelor of Engineering in Information & Communication Engineering from The University of Tokyo in 1998. He went on to earn his Master of Engineering in Electrical & Electronics, and Doctor of Philosophy in Electronics and Information Systems Engineering from Gifu University, Japan in 2008 and 2011, respectively. Additionally, Dr. Nazrul completed a two-year post-doctoral research program (2014-2016) at The Institute of Biomedical Engineering, University of Oxford, United Kingdom, where he was also a Research Member of Common Room, Kellogg College, University of Oxford from 2015-2016. Dr. Nazrul’s career spans both industry and academia. Prior to entering academia, he gained extensive industry experience, starting as a Design Engineer at Hitachi Limited, Tochigi, Japan (1998-2000). He then worked as a Test Engineer at Unisem Malaysia Berhad (2001-2003), a Senior R&D Engineer at STATSChipPAC Malaysia (2003-2005), and as an Academic Researcher at MIMOS Berhad, Kuala Lumpur (2012). In addition to his academic and industry roles, Dr. Nazrul is currently the CEO of IDNA Ideas Sdn. Bhd., a UKM start-up company focused on innovative solutions. With over 13 research projects as Principal Investigator and more than 65 publications, including three books, journal articles, and conference papers, Dr. Nazrul has made significant contributions to the fields of healthcare, digital circuit design, and wireless communications. His research interests are expanding into AI-embedded robotics, IoT, and drones block programming, where he actively trains students and educators in Malaysia and Indonesia, introducing them to cutting-edge technology for education and industry applications. In February and March 2025, Dr. Nazrul served as a visiting professor at Henan Polytechnic, China, where he taught the "Advanced Sensor Design fo
