Organization of science outreach activities
Engaging with the community and fostering interest in science is a cornerstone of my professional mission. Through various outreach activities, I have aimed to bridge the gap between scientific research and public understanding, particularly in the fields of entomology and environmental science.
These activities reflect my commitment to promoting scientific literacy and encouraging the next generation of scientists, ensuring that the wonders of the natural world are accessible to everyone.
