  •    Biografi/ Biography :

  • My research based on using animals (birds and small mammals) as indicators of habitat condition; forest fragmentation, habitat disturbance, deforestation etc. I used indicators such as species richness and diversity pattern, physiology, blood parasites, ectoparasites prevalence and potentially Zoonotic diseases associated with human. Apart from that, I also invoinvolve in STEM Education, especially pertaining to Nature education.
