Role:Senior Scientist
Focus of Research:
  • Crustacean fisheries, Population dynamics, stock assessment and fisheries resource management
  • Impact of climate change on marine fisheries
  • Aquatic animal health management
  • Mariculture
Background:

I have done my masters in fish pathology and microbiology in 2008 during which I have worked on cytokine stimulation study in one of the widely cultured Indian major carps (IMC) i.e. Labeo rohita.  Since 2009, I am working in CMFRI on crustacean fisheries related studies. I am working to understand crustacean biology and it population dynamics as well as resolving the management strategy for the sustainable exploitation of this resource. I am also involved in assessing the climate change impact on marine fisheries and its mitigation aspects.  Presently, I am pursuing my Ph.D. on probiotic study to understand its beneficial effects in crustacean model.
