Research Interests

My research interest lies in studying spatial population dynamics over space and time for management and conservation purposes using genetic data. I also have a keen interest in developing methods to estimate demography and the effect of landscape on dispersal and population structure.

For my research I am acquainted with a wide variety of tools such as programming languages for agent-based models and also with standard mathematical and advanced statistical techniques (species distribution modelling and Bayesian approaches) and utilizing spatial data via Geographic Information Systems (GIS) approaches.

Another important aspect of my research deals with the development of monitoring tools and techniques to optimize the management and conservation of endangered species. Here I always aim to use the latest methods and technologies.
