PETALING JAYA: As a child, UK-based Professor Dr Muzlifah Haniffa was fascinated by the immensity of space and dreamed of becoming an astronomer.

Little did she know that she would not end up studying the stars but instead would be the proud recipient of the prestigious Lister Institute Research Prize Fellowship in May for her research on the immune system.
