Taylo of the Institute of Plant Breeding (IPB); and Dr. Leila D. Landicho of the Agricultural Systems Institute, all from the College of Agriculture and Food Science (CAFS).

Dr. Marilyn O. Quimado of the Department of Forest Biological Sciences from the College of Forestry and Natural Resources was also appointed as Scientist I.

Along with these new appointees, 11 UPLB researchers retained their previous appointments. Continuing as Scientist I are Dr. Edwin P. Alcantara, Dr. Eufrocinio DC. Marfori, and Dr. Rosario G. Monsalud of the National Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (BIOTECH) and Sancho G. Bon, Dr. Olivia P. Damasco, and Dr. Fe M. Dela Cueva of CAFS.

Dr. Merdelyn C. Lit, Dr. Mario V. Navasero, and Dr. Florencia B. Pulhin of CAFS retained their appointments as Scientist II.
