Record-breaking new discovery

Dr Soo uses a line instead of a net to catch groupers in Kilim, Langkawi, that are then dissected and investigated.

AQUATIC Science Lecturer Dr Michelle Soo Oi Yoon has discovered 14 new species of marine parasites.

As a marine taxonomist with UCSI University, who studies marine life, Dr Soo’s discovery is considered record-breaking in her field of work.
