Associate ProfessorOne of the key relationships among living organisms is the predator-prey relationship.
While it is often assumed that prey are simply consumed by predators, they actually coexist with predators in nature. My research delves into the fascinating realm of how prey manages to coexist with predators and other organisms in their ecosystem, with a particular focus on acarids.
Recent Topics of Interests:
I am interested in the concepts of brood parasitism, cooperative conservation, and predator-prey dynamics, and predator-prey role reversals.
Motto in Research or in Life:
I’m trying to conduct research that’s easily understandable, even for those without advanced prior knowledge.
