Summary:
I am motivated by the desire to learn new things. Apart from obtaining a PhD from this program, which will be an additional qualification in my academic career and will have given me the opportunity to learn from leading researchers in my field, participation in this project also offers me the opportunity to be bilingual and also to immerse myself in other cultures than my own through this academic stay in Nigeria. With a Master's degree in Environmental Science and Management, I intend, after obtaining my PhD, to enter a field related to environmental expertise and at the same time pursue research to propose innovative solutions to current environmental challenges.
Research:
The research project I am currently working on is the assessment of the ecological quality of several rivers in the North Central Region of Nigeria. This assessment will be based primarily on the aquatic communities present, particularly aquatic macroinvertebrates. This will be done through the development of a multimetric index of macroinvertebrates according to the types of pollution present in the different landscapes of this region and through the development of a database of macroinvertebrate bioecological traits. These two applications will be linked to the environmental variables of the environments studied.
