Molecular Ecology & Population Genomics | Wildlife Research & Data Analysis Expert | GIS & R | 10+ Years Experience

プロフィール概要

I am a conservation geneticist and molecular ecologist with over 10 years of experience in wildlife research, specializing in population genetics, conservation genomics, and non-invasive genetic techniques. I have extensive expertise in laboratory methods including DNA extraction (invasive and non-invasive samples), PCR, primer design, genotyping, and DNA sequencing, along with strong analytical skills in microsatellite and sequence-based data analysis using R and specialized genetic software. I have worked on large-scale, multidisciplinary conservation projects across India and Africa, including national-level tiger monitoring programs with the Wildlife Institute of India and genetic studies on large carnivores such as tigers, leopards, dholes, and elephants. My PhD research focuses on gene flow, genetic structure, and phylogeography of the endangered Asiatic wild dog across India, contributing to evidence-based conservation planning. Currently, I serve as a Project Coordinator and Grant Writer, leading research on human–elephant conflict, diet analysis, and meta-barcoding approaches to understand ecological responses to habitat fragmentation. I also collaborate internationally as a geneticist with the Cheetah Conservation Fund (Namibia) and co-supervise PhD research on African elephants at the University of Namibia. My work integrates field ecology, molecular tools, and data-driven analysis to address complex conservation challenges. I am particularly interested in applying genetics to wildlife management, landscape connectivity, and conservation decision-making.
