- Self-introduction
- I have conducted studies on the diversity and the role of insects in various ecosystems from tropical forests to urban settings. Also, I am working on the interactions between human and nature, such as nature-based tourism, children's nature play and conflicts with wildlife, from the perspective of ecosystem conservation.
