About the author
Sem Likumahua was born in Ambon, Maluku, Eastern Indonesia. He did his bachelor degree at Pattimura University Ambon, majoring in Fishery and Marine Sciences. After graduating, Sem joined LIPI and started to work as a young researcher in 2008. He has been involved in plankton research team and doing harmful algal blooms (HABs) monitoring in Ambon Bay. In 2014 he was awarded a New Zealand ASEAN Scholarship for conducting a master degree in Marine Biology/Conservation at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand and graduated in July 2015. During the master program, he was involved in a HAB monitoring program at Marlborough Sounds New Zealand, held by Cawthron Institute in Nelson. Under the supervision of A/Prof. Ken Ryan and Dr. Lincoln McKenzie, Sem did his final master project on Alexandrium catenela cysts. Stepping from this experience, he continues to study more about HAB, especially in Ambon Bay and Indonesia at large. In October 2016, he was awarded a doctoral scholarship by LPDP to pursue a PhD degree at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands with focus on the dynamics of potentially HAB species and their associated toxins in Ambon Bay. After finishing this PhD program, Sem will be back to work as a researcher at LIPI in Ambon and continue his research on HAB in Ambon Bay and in Indonesian waters.
