Profile

Since my undergraduate study at Universitas Indonesia, I have been interested in natural products’ effects on sperm quality. Following my work experience with an IVF team, I attended graduate programs at Nagoya University in Japan to study the biology of quail spermatogenesis. One of the research grants I received was from ITSF to investigate the anti-fertility potency of takokak fruits.
