RESEARCH INTERESTS
1. Ecological parasitology of fish,
amphibians, crustacean and mollusks from
rivers, reservoirs, saline and freshwater
lakes
2. Biology, ecology, functional
morphology, and development of the
parasites of fish and other aquatic
animals
3. Biomonitoring of water contamination
using parasite community.
4. Expertise of parasitic diseases of
fish including 'whirling disease'.
5. Ultrastructure of parasites and
invertebrates.
