Founding and Historical Background

Prof. Drs. Bambang Irawan M.Sc., Ph.D., a Professor in the field of Population Biology and Carsinology at the Faculty of Science and Technology (FST), Airlangga University, initiated the publication of the journal in 1995. At that time, the journal was managed manually, including typing and printing. His contributions laid the foundation for the journal's growth and continued development as a significant platform for biological research dissemination.

During that period, much research data in Indonesia was primarily presented in seminars and rarely documented or published in journals. The high costs associated with scientific journal publication, including editorial expenses and communication between authors and editors via postal services, posed significant challenges. Additionally, the availability of national journals was very limited. Recognizing these challenges, the need for an accessible and structured scientific publication led to the establishment of Berkala Penelitian Hayati.

Overall, Berkala Penelitian Hayati serves as a valuable platform for researchers to share their findings, advancements, and knowledge in the diverse and ever-evolving field of biology.
