Kenya

Aquaculture Nutritionist & Research Scientist | Sustainable Aquafeed Formulation | Tilapia, Catfish & Shrimp Systems

プロフィール概要

I am a Postdoctoral Research Scientist and Principal Investigator with over a decade of experience in aquaculture nutrition, sustainable aquafeed development, and fish production systems. I hold a PhD in Aquaculture from Tamil Nadu Fisheries University, India, and currently lead the FASA Aquafeed Programme at icipe (International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology), Nairobi, Kenya — a NORAD-funded initiative developing insect-based and alternative protein aquafeed systems for smallholder aquaculture across Sub-Saharan Africa, implemented in partnership with WorldFish. Research & Technical Expertise My core expertise spans fish and shrimp nutrition, alternative and novel feed ingredient evaluation, feed formulation, proximate and amino acid analysis, anti-nutritional factor reduction, and recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). I have hands-on experience with Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL), mealworm, cricket, and plant-based protein meals as fishmeal replacements, including ingredient processing techniques such as solid-state fermentation, phytase enzyme treatment, defatting, and heat treatment. I have conducted feeding trials across multiple species including Nile tilapia, African catfish, and Pacific white shrimp. Publications, Patents & Recognition I have authored 20+ peer-reviewed publications, seven books with CRC Press and Elsevier, and hold six patents. I serve on the Editorial Advisory Board of Aquaculture Research (Wiley) and have active collaborations with BASF and Kemin. I completed advanced RAS training under Prof. Michael Ben Timmons at Cornell University. Freelance Services I Offer Through Kolabtree, I offer the following services to aquaculture businesses, research institutions, NGOs, and development agencies: Scientific literature reviews and systematic reviews in aquaculture nutrition and feed science Technical report writing for aquafeed research and development projects Feed formulation advisory and ingredient evaluation Grant proposal writing and research design support Statistical analysis and interpretation of aquaculture feeding trial data Peer review and manuscript editing for aquaculture and fisheries journals Aquaculture project consultancy for NGOs and development programmes in Africa and Asia Why Work With Me I bring a rare combination of academic rigour, applied field experience, and development sector knowledge. I have worked across India, Kenya, and international research networks, supervised graduate students, and delivered research outputs under donor-funded programme timelines. I understand both the science and the practical constraints of aquaculture in low- and middle-income country contexts — which makes my work directly useful to clients operating in those spaces.
