Projects submitted: Reference Number HEC/R&D/RGA/NRPU/2020/1729

I have gained expertise in the following techniques:

  1. Taxonomical Techniques.
  2. Construction of Keys and Cladograms.
  3. Histological techniques, section preparation, staining etc.
  4. Microscopic techniques.
  5. Knowledge about pests and predators.
  6. Protein extraction
  7. Homogenizing and spectrophotometry.
  8. Toxicity of Pyrethroids.

I am committed to be a research scientist and teacher. I like to develop my career in future as a researcher and teacher in Taxonomy and Biological Control as well as in academic activities in a leading University or any educational institution where my roles should be:

To lecture in Zoology, Entomology and related fields.

To undertake independent and collaborative research in the field of Insect Taxonomy and Biological Control Programs.

To establish research program dealing preferably with fundamental questions relating to Entomology. Other areas of research interest include toxicology and animal sciences.

To utilize my knowledge and skills in teaching and guidance of undergraduate and graduate students.
