I am an Assistant Professor at the School of Arts and Sciences, Azim Premji University (APU), Bhopal. I completed my PhD in Botany from the University of Calcutta and had three years of postdoctoral experience at the School of Life Sciences, Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU), China. I was associated as a research associate at SYSU for three years.

I work in the field of biological invasion. My research interest is to understand the biotic and abiotic influences on the range dynamics of invasive plants. Toward this major objective, my research focuses on functional traits, community ecology, biogeography, and spatial ecology. MORE

At Azim Premji University, I teach undergraduate courses - Quantitative Thinking for Biologists and Introduction to Biodiversity and Conservation. MORE
