Laksana Tri Handoko (born 7 May 1968, in Malang) is an Indonesian scientist and public official specializing in theoretical and particle physics. He formerly served as the deputy head of science and technology for the Indonesian Institute of Sciences (Indonesian: Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia, LIPI) from 2014 to 2018.[1][2] In 2018, he replaced Bambang Subiyanto as the acting chairman of the institute.[3]
He has been the Chairman of the National Research and Innovation Agency (Indonesian: Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional, BRIN) since 28 April 2021.[4]
Early life and education
[edit]Handoko born to Suyono and Susasi. His father was a physics lecturer at Gadjah Mada University and a part-time chicken farmer together with his mother.[5][6] At that period, the physics lecturer did not earn adequate paychecks due to limited opportunities and salaries in Indonesia at that time, resulting in his father having a side job as a chicken farmer.[6] Through chicken farming, his parents educated him on professionalism and hard work early in his youth.[5]
Despite his background, Handoko's love of physics and his love for physics bring him to the Bandung Institute of Technology for undergraduate study in physics.[5] However, when Habibie opened the Overseas Fellowship Program scholarship, he became an awardee and resigned from Bandung Institute of Technology.[5] He completed his undergraduate study at Kumamoto University,[2] and then his graduate study in particle physics at Hiroshima University.[7][8][9]
Between his time of undergraduate graduation and master's study, he worked at a Japanese wood factory and later became a gas station employee in Japan.[5]
He became a fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation in 1999,[10][11] and he's also the secretary of the Humboldt Alumni Association of Indonesia.[12]
Careers
[edit]LIPI Scientist
[edit]After returning to Indonesia, Handoko joined LIPI. In LIPI, he joined the Theoretical Physics group. In 2002, he later became Head of the LIPI Theoretical Physics Group, a post he held for 10 years. In 2012, he became Head of the LIPI Research Center for Informatics. He rose to the rank of Deputy III (Engineering Sciences) of LIPI from 2014 until 2018.[13]
Educator
[edit]During this time as a LIPI scientist, he was appointed as a visiting professor at the Department of Physics Bogor Agricultural Institute (2002–2004) and the Department of Physics University of Indonesia (since 2002).[14] At the time of his appointment as Chairman of BRIN, he still holds the visiting professor position at the University of Indonesia.[15]
Chairman of LIPI

Chairman of BRIN
[edit]On the second reshuffle of the Onward Indonesia cabinet that was announced on 28 April 2021, he was appointed as the second (but first independent) holder of Chairman of BRIN.[16] After liquidation of Indonesian Institute of Sciences (Indonesian: Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia, LIPI), Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology (Indonesian: Badan Pengkajian dan Penerapan Teknologi, BPPT), National Nuclear Energy Agency of Indonesia (Indonesian: Badan Tenaga Nuklir Nasional, BATAN), and National Institute of Aeronautics and Space (Indonesian: Lembaga Penerbangan dan Antariksa Nasional, LAPAN) into BRIN on 1 September 2021, he currently become the Head of BRIN in its first consolidated form.[4]
