I joined Swiss Federal Research Institute, WSL, Zurich, Switzerland, as a visiting PhD student under the Swiss government excellence fellowship for the academic year 2022-2023. At WLS Federal Institute, Zurich I am working with a group of experts in Biodiversity and Conservation unit under the leadership of Dr. Catherine Graham. I am affiliated with Wildlife Institute of India, and my PhD research project focuses on the "Conservation of Musk Deer: Integrating Genetics and Ecology in Northwestern Himalayas” under the Guidance of Dr. C. Ramesh at WII, and Dr. Lalit Kumar Sharma, Dr. Mukesh Thakur at ZSI, Kolkata. Currently I am engaged in multi-species distribution modelling, employing climate and land-use drivers to develop biodiversity corridors for the conservation of wildlife species. Over the past 4.5 years as a research fellow at the Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata, I have gained extensive experience in studying and conserving threatened vertebrate fauna in the Indian Himalayan region. My fieldwork has involved camera trapping and conventional sampling strategies across a broad elevation range of 1600m to 5100m. This interdisciplinary research has encompassed wildlife ecology, conservation biology, landscape ecology, climate change, land-use change modelling, and species interactions. Importantly, my work has contributed to identifying conservation priority areas for threatened species such as brown bears, snow leopards, Himalayan monal, and musk deer.
