Mr. Sk. Istiaque Ahmed is currently undergoing his PhD degree as a research student at Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute in the University of Tokyo (UTokyo), Japan. His present research question is basically based on Environmental DNA (e-DNA) which now a days has become a global research hot cake in the field of physical oceanography and open water resource management. Mr. Ahmed demonstrated proven efficacy in his arena of research by producing a number of national and international publications. He earlier investigated key research questions in the field of aquatic toxicology and on different fisheries management approaches ranging from the participatory socio-economic studies to the sophisticated controlled laboratory experiments.
Before joining as a faculty in this university, he achieved his B.Sc. Fisheries (Honours) degree and MS in Fisheries Management degree with distinct merit position and by depicting excellent academic records from one of the most renowned agricultural universities in south-east Asia namely Bangladesh Agricultural University.
Despite being a young researcher, he has enormous thirst for exploring new ideas of aquatic environmental management and biodiversity conservation. On top of that, as an academician he is very much enthusiastic in delivering lectures on contemporary topics of Fisheries science. He has a passion in counselling university students in critical real life situations and national issues.
Mr. Ahmed is very much hopeful to produce something very valuable and new interesting findings at his higher study abroad and is well committed to disseminate his acquired knowledge for the assurance in maintaining continuous development in country’s fisheries sector after coming back in Bangladesh.
