Brief Statement of research work

My research interests lie at the intersection of wildlife ecology, environmental health, and biodiversity conservation. I am particularly interested in understanding how environmental stressors influence wildlife populations and ecosystem stability. My work focuses on investigating ecological processes that shape biodiversity while addressing emerging environmental challenges that threaten wildlife and public health. A central component of my research is the study of environmental toxicology and ecological risk assessment. I aim to evaluate the impact of contaminants such as heavy metals, industrial pollutants, and emerging environmental stressors on wildlife species and their habitats. Through field-based monitoring and laboratory analyses, I seek to understand how toxic substances accumulate within ecological systems and affect animal physiology, behavior, and survival. In addition, I am interested in exploring the physiological and ecological effects of nanoparticles and other emerging pollutants on animal health. I hope to generate knowledge that supports evidence-based conservation strategies and promotes sustainable coexistence between humans and natural ecosystems.
