I study factors affecting sexual signalling in Psammophilus dorsalis

I am studying the multistage interactions (trade-offs) between different stages of Aedes aegypti. 

I am studying the spatio-temporal effects of sexual selection on trait allometries in Psammophilus dorsalis.

I am broadly interested in animal behavior and life-history trait evolution. I am currently working on risky behaviors and their fitness consequences in Psammophilus dorsalis. 

I’m broadly interested in animal behavior and ecology and I’m planning to study aspects of these in Psammophilus dorsalis

I am interested in exploring the presence of sexual selection in females, as opposed to the existing body of work for sexual selection in males based around Bateman Gradient, OSR and variation in gametes.

I'm a first year PhD student interested in behavioural ecology, especially mating systems and sociality.
I plan to study aspects of these in my PhD research. 

I am studying how environmental factors, particularly light and heat, influence the larval and pupal stages of Aedes aegypti. I’m broadly interested in insect predator–prey interactions and fascinated by how prey make rapid, high-stakes decisions under predation risk. I also enjoy exploring behavioural patterns in spiders. 

I have joined Kavita’s lab as a master’s student, taking my first step toward my lifelong interest in the field of ecology. With an interest for observing animal behaviour, I am hoping to develop a research perspective and scientific approach for the same.
For me, it's a journey of exploration. 

I'm interested in sexual selection and mating systems.
I'm currently working on female mating strategies and inbreeding avoidance in Psammophilus dorsalis.
