About the Author

Prof. Dr. Estu Nugroho holds a bachelor's degree in fisheries from the Bogor Agricultural Institute, Indonesia, a master's degree from Kochi University, Japan, and a doctorate degree from Tohoku University, Japan. He is currently working as a main researcher at the Center for Fisheries Research, BRIN, Indonesia. Dr. Nugroho has authored around 15 books, covering topics such as genetic management of brood sk, catfish agribusiness, aquaponic systems for fish and vegetable cultivation, superior tilapia, total aquaculture system for catfish farming, pearl catfish, genetics in breeding freshwater fisheries, and the practical guide to cultivating mighty catfish.

Dr. Imron Imron specializes in fish biodiversity, with a focus on fish breeding and domestication using both conventional and modern biotechnological methods. He earned his bachelor's degree in fisheries from Djuanda University, Indonesia and a master's degree in aquatic science from IPB University, Indonesia. Imron further obtained a PhD in zoology from The University of Queensland, Australia. His team has developed genetically enhanced strains of farmed fish, notably the African catfish. Presently, Imron holds the position of Principal Researcher and leads the Fish Domestication and Breeding Program at the Fisheries Research Center, National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN).

Dr. Bambang Gunadi completed his bachelor's degree in aquaculture from Bogor Agricultural University (IPB University) in 1987. He obtained his master's aquaculture from the Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand in 1999, and his doctoral degree in aquaculture from Bogor Agricultural University in 2012. After working for 30 years at the Agency for Agricultural Research and Development and the Agency for Marine Affairs and Fisheries Research and Human Resources, he now serves as senior researcher at the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) under The Research Center for Fishery. He has published expertise on water quality management, aquaculture systems, biofloc technology, fish culture and fish breeding.

Dr. Rosmiati received a B.S. in chemistry from the Hasanuddin University Makassar in 1997. She currently works at National Research and Innovation Agency Indonesia. She has finished master's and doctoral degree in Natural Product Chemistry and Biotechnology in Universiti Putra Malaysia and Universiti Malaysia Terengganu, respectively. Her research interest includes utilization of herbs for disease control and fish reproduction, natural product chemistry, domestication and breeding, and biotechnology.

Dr. Khairul Syahputra received his bachelor's degree in marine science from Riau University in 2005 and his master's degree in biotechnology from IPB University in 2008. He completed his PhD degree in immunology and infectious diseases from University of Copenhagen, Denmark in 2020. He was a postdoctoral fellow in the Institute for Fish and Wildlife Health, University of Bern, Switzerland in 2023-2024 funded by the SWISS government excellence scholarships (ESKAS). After 12 years doing research at the Research Institute for Fish Breeding, Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (MMAF), Indonesia, he currently works as researcher at Research Center for Fishery, National Research and Innovation Agency of Republic of Indonesia (BRIN). His research interests include aquaculture, genetic and fish breeding, focusing on genetic marker, genetic engineering, gene expression and omics studies, and disease resistances.
