Research Interest
| Subject | Description | Research Interest (Goal, Target Indicator) |
|---|---|---|
| Primates Behavioural Ecology | Social structure of non-human primates; How and why one non-human primates behave with others within them; Interactions between human and non-human primates by the their behavioural studies; Conflict between the human an non-human primates and the mitigation measures; Does any behavioural adaptability accelerate the conflict between human and non-human primates? How and why non-human primates use different tools to feed different or any unusual foods? | |
| Primatology | The study of primates such as Monkeys, langurs, and Apes etc. I have strong interest to develop my career in this field adopting modern tool and techniques (Molecular study and GIS) |
