About
I did my PhD in Wildlife Sciences where I focused on understanding physiological health responses of large carnivores to a disturbance gradient at a landscape scale. I have used eco-physiological (especially non-invasive endocrine measures) and GIS tools to address wildlife conservation issues. My interest lies in understanding the impact of changing environments on wild animals and populations, how they adapt, survive, or thrive, largely through a physiological lens.
