His research interest has been in the area of radar remote sensing of polar ice in support of global climate studies. Consequently was employed as a research professor at the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets at the University of Kansas in 2002. In 2003 he received the University of Kansas Graduate School's prize for the most outstanding dissertation in 2003. He returned to Malaysia in September 2006 under the Malaysia Government's Brain Gain Malaysia (BGM) programme. He is currently a Senior Staff Researcher at MIMOS Bhd where he develops wireless telecommunication products in support of the Malaysian Government's initiative to bridge the digital divide between rural and urban areas by bringing internet connectivity to the whole of Malaysia. Dr. Pannir, is one of only a handful of Malaysians who have seen Antartica, let alone live and work there. Since his return to Malaysia he has been sharing the environmental research work that he had done while in Antartica to Malaysians to create environmental awarness on this side of the planet. We are grateful to have him here at the Life Positive Forum and provide him with a platform for his much needed environmental mission.
