I received my PhD degree, in Conservation Biology, from Imperial College London where I studied the impacts of anthropogenic activities on bird communities in protected areas, using data from Kenya and Cyprus. My current project aims at exploring the robustness of interspecific associations in mixed-species bird flocks and examining how those may change under different land use types. I am also interested in using bioacoustic technology to monitor changes in bird communities in the forest professional case study writing service fragments in Xishuangbanna.
