Abu Bakar Abdul Majeed obtained a Bachelor degree in Pharmacy from Al-Zagazig University,

Abu Bakar studied on a part-time basis, Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) at USM,

and graduated in 1996. Between 1997 and 2002 Abu Bakar was Senior Fellow in Science and

Technology, and later founding Director of Centre for Consultancy and Training, at the Institute

of the New Straits Times, and occasionally in the STAR, two of Malaysia’s leading English

language dailies on issues pertaining to pharmacy and medical ethics, and enhancing public

understanding of science and technology. He also contributed extensively to ‘Faith and

professional training. Research is emphasized, with three centres of excellence established

namely, Institute for the Study of Naturally Occurring Drugs (iKUS; now AuRINS), Non-

Destructive Pharmaceutical and Medical Research Centre (NDPMRC), and

Pharmacogenomics Centre (i-PROMISE). Today not only does Faculty of Pharmacy UiTM

consistently score high marks in MyRA exercise, but Pharmacy and Pharmacology is captured

as world’s top 250 in the QS subject ranking.

In January 2004, Abu Bakar was also made Founding Chairman of Nexus of Science and

Technology of UiTM, comprising 13 science-based faculties at UiTM namely, Pharmacy,

Medicine, Health Sciences, Dentistry, Sports Science, Electrical Engineering, Chemical

Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Applied Sciences, Architecture

Planning & Survey, Information Technology & Quantitative Science, and Plantation &

Agrotechnology). The milestones achieved included the introduction of Foundation Science

and Engineering courses for excellent SPM holders for induction into S&T based faculties;

inter-faculty research centres and clusters winning research grants; formulation of common

entry requirements for selected faculties, rationalization of the entrepreneurship course for

S&T students, nexus-based academic missions to woo top students to UiTM, UiTM Research

Ethics Committee was established and several interdisciplinary research Centres of

Excellence were formed. Today, a dedicated Foundation Centre operates from UiTM Dengkil

Campus, taking in 4500 students annually.

From May 1, 2009 he was Assistant Vice Chancellor at Research Management Institute (RMI).

UiTM became the number one university in Malaysia for Fundamental Research Grant

Scheme (FRGS). Over three years (2010-2013) UiTM garnered RM185 millions of public,

private and international grants. The number of R&D projects funded was over 3000. Principal

investigators (PIs) increased steadily from hundreds in 2009 to thousands in 2014. Research

entities guidelines, innovation and commercialisation policy, and various internal grants were

introduced to mobilise UiTM researchers. In 2011, UiTM organised one of the most successful

and memorable PECIPTA (International Conference Exposition on Inventions of Institutions

of Higher Learning), raking in a profit of RM1 million. The PECIPTA logo designed by UiTM

then, remains as the official MOHE PECIPTA logo to this day.

As Assistant Vice Chancellor for the Health Campus beginning August 2014, his task was to

ensure smooth incorporation of the Dental Faculty into the Sungai Buloh campus. Currently,

Faculties of Medicine and Dentistry share resources like the Operating Theatre and

Centralised Sterilisation Services. UiTM Private Medical Specialist Centre was set up and

construction of UiTM Teaching Hospital in Puncak Alam campus begun.

His current position (since September 2016) as Rector of UiTM Selangor involves getting

Deans of 12 Faculties and Directors of three Centres of Excellence to collaborate to push

UiTM agenda of producing entrepreneurial, professional graduates and achieving 6-star score

of MyRA. This latter is to be achieved with a tagline “research benefitting people and industry”.

UiTM Selangor consists of 5 major campuses from Selayang to Dengkil and a student

population of about 27000.

On the professional front, Abu Bakar is a member of the Pharmacy Board of Malaysia (2000-

2003 and 2016-2019), and since 2001 has been on Pharmacy Board’s Ethics & Jurisprudence

Subcommittee that oversees the Qualifying Exam to Practice Pharmacy in Malaysia, an exam

mandatory for would-be pharmacists.

Abu Bakar was elected council member of the Malaysian Pharmaceutical Society (MPS) in

May 1995, its Vice President 1997-1998 and Deputy President 2001-2003. He founded

Malaysian Academy of Pharmacy (MAP) under the auspices of MPS. MAP’s signature

continuing pharmacy education (CPE) programme has now been adopted by Ministry of

Health Malaysia for the Annual Retention Certificate to practice pharmacy.

In the international arena, Abu Bakar was consultant to the World Health Organization’s

(WHO) Good Governance in Medicine (GGM) initiative (2005-2011). He was involved in

projects in Switzerland, the Philippines, Thailand and Papua New Guinea (PNG). He

personally trained PNG pharmacists to initiate GGM for the public pharmaceutical sector.

Today, countries including Malaysia have adopted GGM as a strategy to optimise access to

medicines. As International Research Fellow (2008-2011) of University of New South Wales

(UNSW), Australia I established the Bioinformatics group at UiTM, which is now driving the

big data laboratory initiative under IR4.0 effort at UiTM Selangor.

At the national level, Abu Bakar headed the Task Force of Future Pharmacy Education (2010-

2015) of Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) and published a report for reference of all

pharmacy schools in Malaysia. Since 2006, Abu Bakar has been an assessor of MOHE’s

FRGS, TRGS, ERGS, PRGS, LRGS and Hi-COE, and is currently heading the Health and

Clinical Cluster. He has also contributed as Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation’s

(MOSTI) e-Science and BIOTEK grants evaluator. Overall, he has expedited the evaluation

of more than 1000 research proposals including those from research universities, thus

assisting the country to rise significantly in terms of ranking of its universities, mainly

contributed by the provision of grants by the government.

As founding member, and most recently, Chairman of the National Bioethics Council

appointed by Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation, we provided ethical input on

Malaysia’s stand on issues like refugees and big data for UNESCO (June, 2017) and ASEAN

(November, 2017). Since 1998, Abu Bakar has been a member of the Joint Research and

Ethics Committee of International Medical University (IMU).

Abu Bakar’s research areas are brain science focusing on Alzheimer’s disease, and

nanopharmacy aimed at improving drug delivery especially to the brain. He and his colleagues

have obtained research grants totalling RM10 million, and published more than 100 papers in

respectable journals. He also writes on issues pertaining to medical and pharmaceutical

ethics.

Abu Bakar now conducts biannual summer schools for young neuroscientists from Asia at

UiTM Selangor Puncak Alam, with funding supported by International Brain Research

Organization (IBRO) based in Paris, and assist IBRO Summer schools in Asia and Africa as
