Dr. Rosnida Tajuddin, a mycologist at Universiti Sains Malaysia, explores the rich diversity of macrofungi and ectomycorrhizal fungi in Malaysian rainforests. Holding a PhD from the University of Aberdeen, she actively contributes to scientific expeditions and co-authored national mushroom safety guidelines. Passionate about public engagement, she inspires citizen mycologists to share fungi sightings, helping to map species across regions. Dr. Rosnida believes communities play a lasting role in preserving fungal heritage and ecological balance.
