5. Research interest: Applied, Agricultural, and medical entomology

My research interests will likely align with real-world applications of insect biology, ecology, and management. Such as

Development of sustainable and eco-friendly pest control strategies.
Interaction ofinsects with microbial pathogens and what that means for vector control.Mechanisms of disease transmission (e.g., malaria, dengue, Zika)
Study of insecticide mode of action, resistance mechanisms, and alternative control agents
Impact of climate change on insect populations, behavior, and distribution.
Taxonomy and biodiversity studies with applications in conservation and pest identification.
Protecting and enhancing pollinator populations for agriculture and biodiversity,
And other related issues
