My key research areas include biotic and abiotic stress tolerance mechanism in plants. This involves unraveling drought and salinity tolerance mechanism in some wild perennial grasses and their further introgression into high yielding crop plants. Also more excited to deal with host plant resistance against insect pest communities. Particularly, plant hopper endosymbiont communities in shaping hopper resistance and adaptation against crop plants like rice.

Dr. Amit Kumar, M.Sc, Ph.D

I am a marine ecologist with an interest in understanding response and adaptation of marine organisms to environmental stress. My current focus is to understand how seaweeds will be affected by climate change stressors such as ocean warming and acidification. I have been utilizing underwater volcanic CO2 vents as natural laboratory to study ocean acidification as well as also performing experiments in controlled laboratory conditions. I use multidisciplinary approach including RNA-Seq, proteomics, enzymatic assays, biochemical analysis etc. to answer my research questions.

Mr. S. Umer Khalifa, M.Sc

I'm a enthusiastic marine ecologist who always instilled with dynamic and complexity of marine ecosystem. My research interest is on Marine plankton ecology, Marine copepod taxonomy, coral reef restoration and Molecular biology. I've participated in conservation activities pertaining to sea turtle and mangroves. Snorkeling and diving experience helped me to undertake a training program on coral reef health index assessment and restoration. Teaching experience at Maldives was an asset in developing my interpersonal skills and knowledge on atoll Reef Island and its unique ecology. I'm currently pursuing PhD in understanding the impacts of cumulative stressors of climate change on Marine copepods using mesocosm experiment. The project includes observation, comparison and prediction of physiological, biochemical and molecular responses of the copepod community to future changes in Tropical Ocean.

I am a passionate marine biologist with a research interest in taxonomy and ecology of microalgae. I have completed my Masters degree in Marine Biology from Karnatak university. I am currently working towards understanding the effects of the rapidly changing climate and ocean acidification on the microalgae species and their community in laboratory conditions.
