Research Interests:

I am interested in different research topics (insect chemical ecology, toxicology, insect molecular biology, agricultural sustainability, and biodiversity). My PhD research is currently focusing on identifying insects and animals in soil and finding out how using different fertilizers could affect the population and diversity of soil fauna.
