Ms. Jo-Ann Leong, Secretary and Treasurer
Director, Hawai'i Institute of Marine Biology

Biography: Jo-Ann is Director of the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology at Coconut Island. She received her Ph.D. in Microbiology from the University of California, School of Medicine and her B.A. in Zoology at the University of California at Berkeley.

Her research interests are in molecular virology, vaccine development and phylogeography. Viruses that infect aquatic organisms are important disease pathogens and their impact on aquacultured species such as salmon and trout can be devastating. These viruses, particularly infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV), a rhabdovirus, and infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV), a birnavirus, are so lethal that 90% of salmon production at a hatchery can be lost to these diseases. Her laboratory is developing vaccines and other treatments to control these diseases in fish.

After her arrival in Hawaii, Jo-Ann has become intrigued by the devastating diseases in corals and tropical fish and expanded her research into these research arenas. Jo-Ann helped in the formulation of the current CDHC National Research Plan and has been an active member in the Consortium since 2001.

Mr. Jerry Kaluhiwa, Director
Fisherman, Kāne'ohe Bay

Biography: Jerry Mahilani Kaluhiwa is the second of 16 children born to Sam and Marie Kaluhiwa of Kohala and O'ahu, respectively. He was raised by his grandmother, Louisa Brown, originally a Maui girl, until he was five. Jerry has spent most of his life in He'eia Kea. He and his family are active subsistence fishermen in the bay of Kāne'ohe. He is married to Leialoha "Rocky” Kaluhiwa, kupa'āina from the He'eia ahupua'a.

Jerry was the first recipient of a grant from OHA, the City, and the State of Hawai'i which funded a limu project in the He'eia Fishpond in 1978. Working with KEY Project and teenagers from the alternative school, students learned to plant seedlings, tend, and harvest limu in an atmosphere of service learning which also fostered self-sufficiency through farming. Jerry was also instrumental by providing his knowledge in the initial stages of creating laws to protect the limu and coral of Kāne'ohe Bay.

Jerry with his family and grandchildren, continue to fish on Kāne'ohe Bay, sharing his knowledge with his 'ohana, friends, the community and Paepae o He'eia.
