Dr. rer. nat. Arli Aditya Parikesit is the head of the Bioinformatics Department at Indonesia International Institute for Life Sciences (I3L). He finished both his bachelor's and master's degrees in chemistry at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Indonesia. In order to pursue a degree in Bioinformatics, he accepted an offer from DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) to conduct doctorate research at the Bioinfor-

matics Group, Faculty of Informatics and Mathematics, University of Leipzig, Germany. His doctoral research is focused on the utilization of modern protein domain annotation techniques to the three domains of life. In addition, Dr. Arli is also an expert on immunoinformatics, bioinformatics algorithm, structural bioinformatics, in silico drug design, and in silico transcriptomics. Currently, Dr. Arli is devising a pipeline to apply his expertise to COVID-19 drug and vaccine designs.
