Research interests: Forensic Anthropology and Identification: The research interest is focused on the fragmented remains, skeletal remains, fingerprints, footprints and dental examination to develop promising database that can be used for identification of unknown individuals.
Topics/Projects on Offer: “Study the craniofacial anthropometric differences among gender, ethnicity, and age”. Students who would like to be involved in the microbiome project should register interest by contacting me.”
