My field of study is freshwaters and we reveal the trophic structure of freshwaters with the help of phytoplankton and phytobenthos. We produce floristic and metagenome maps of freshwaters for algae. We also classify freshwaters according to their physicochemical properties. Again, we diagnose the cyanobacteria toxins (cyanotoxins) that pollute the waters.

We are looking for a project where we can measure the toxicity and pollution level of freshwaters and relate them to algae and cyanobacteria.
