We are interested in science-driven conservation research and outreach, and understanding ecological and evolutionary processes that shape life. 

We have a trans disciplinary approach towards addressing questions in ecology
​& conservation.

Our focal areas of research are:
  • Biogeography
  • Diversity & Distribution
  • Urban Ecology
  • Biodiversity Informatics

​We are actively involved in the outreach through popular media and citizen science. 
​
Chatur Ullu Lab mainly works on owls (ullu) and dragonflies (chatur), and everything that they interact with!   

If you are interested, we can find ways to work together!

I am primarily driven by my interest in biodiversity research and conservation
​and aim at making an impact at grass-root level.  

A co-founder of DragonflySouthAsia, OwlIndia, and RoadKill Network, I am actively involved in co-creation of knowledge by outreach through the use of popular media and citizen science.

I am a TEDx speaker, Prakriti Fellow, IUCN Contributor, and SAEVUS Magazine's 'Rising Star of Conservation' awardee.    

I am a published Marathi writer, badminton-er, and love to be on stage doing conservation outreach or performing.​
