Hi, I'm Heru Handika
Post-Doctoral Associate ยท the University of Florida, USA
In situ diversification
Biodiversity Informatics
Artificial Intelligence
I study island small-mammal diversity and speciation, and build open, scalable tools to enhance data integration, curation, and access for biodiversity research. My work combines fieldwork in remote montane forests, leveraging emerging AI technologies, and developing computer programs that scale from mobile devices and personal computers, to high-performance computing clusters.
I describe my work as:
"An end-to-end approach to accelerate and broaden access to cutting-edge collection-based evolutionary studies"
