My CV

Dr.Rohasliney Hashim is currently a lecturer in School of Health Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Health Campus. In research, she focuses on stream/river health as stream affords opportunity to highlight their unique contribution to Malaysia's natural heritage. Her aim is to increase public awareness of water pollution issues and to build an active network of stream stewards thus achieve sustainable resources. This proactive approach is to ensure Malaysia streams and rivers are healthy for future generations to enjoy. She has experiences working with various aquatic ecosystems in Malaysia (e.g., streams, mangroves, man-made lakes, and coral reef), mostly related to biomonitoring using benthic macroinvertebrates and fishes as indicators for pollution or degraded habitat. She accomplished her PhD in Fisheries Ecology from Mississippi State University, USA.
