Noraina Jamal Rashid

Hi, I'm Noraina Jamal Rashid and I currently live in Edinburgh, Scotland studying MSc Quantitative Genetics and Genome Analysis specialism in Animal Breeding and Genetics. I hold a Malaysia citizenship and originally from Selangor, Malaysia.

I am currently learning various types of media including Wikipedia as a part of the Edinburgh Award (Digital Ambassador) Scheme. The Edinburgh Award is a scheme that recognises non academic activities participated by Edinburgh University students. The award will be noted in HEAR transcripts as a part of the recognition effort.

Edinburgh University is also collaborating with Wikipedia in the Edinburgh University residency program. The project page for the Edinburgh University residency is located here: Wikipedia:University of Edinburgh

About me

edit

I hold a BSc in Animal Science and Resource Management (Zoology) from Universiti Malaysia Sarawak. My past time activities included k-drama marathon and reading. I am currently changing my non-fictional reading preference to books related to science and economy to balance my technical knowledge. For fictional reading, I am a fan of the Inheritance Cycle with my favourite is the first book Eragon and my favourite character is Murtagh. Other than that, my favourite writer is Nicholas Sparks and I have read almost all of his book. My favourite is The Best of Me and ironically it is also one of his books that I hate the ending.
