Dr. Jezamine Lim, the wife to comedian and actor Harith Iskander, has made history in Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) for being the first ever woman to receive a PhD in tissue engineering. She recently just received her doctorate at UKM’s 45th convocation ceremony.
“This success is a result of the encouragement from my lecturer and husband. I think without them, it might be difficult for me to achieve what I did,” said the mother of three.
“I also have two supervising lecturers who are very kind and always guiding me whenever I’m facing issues, especially in academic writing,” she added.
Being the sweetheart he is, Harith also congratulated and paid tribute to his wife for her PhD success on Instagram, “Along the way, she had three beautiful kids, produced two international comedy festivals and led one Malaysian comedian (that’s me) to become Laugh Factory’s Funniest Person In The World.”
“Today, she became the first woman PhD holder in her tissue engineering field. I’m so proud of her – she is a shining example that you can achieve anything you put your mind to.”
Aww! Congratulations. 😉
