Biography

I am a Professor of Fisheries and Hydrobiology with extensive experience in teaching, research, and postgraduate supervision in aquatic sciences. My research focuses on hydrobiology and aquaculture management, with particular interest in water quality assessment, aquatic ecosystem health, and sustainable fisheries development. I have contributed to peer-reviewed publications and collaborative research aimed at improving aquaculture productivity and environmental sustainability. I am committed to advancing knowledge, mentoring young scientists, and promoting sustainable management of aquatic resources.
