PhD Hydrobiology (Phycology)
Dr. Mudassir Badamasi Specialises In Hydrobiology With A Focus On Phycology, Particularly In The Application Of microalgae For Environmental Remediation And Molecular Characterisation. My Research Interests Include:
Phycoremediation Of Wastewater: Investigating The Potential Of Selected Microalgae Species For removal Of Heavy Metals, Organic Pollutants, And Nutrients From Contaminated Water Sources.
Microalgal Biotechnology: Exploring growth Optimisation, Biomass Productivity, And Bioactive Compounds Of Microalgae For Industrial And Environmental Applications.
Chloroplast Genome Characterisation: Conducting complete Chloroplast Genome Sequencing And Phylogenetic Analysis Of Selected Microalgae Species To Understand Their Genetic Diversity And Evolutionary Relationships.
Water Quality Monitoring And Ecological Assessment: Using algal Bioindicators For Evaluating Freshwater Ecosystems And Assessing Anthropogenic Impacts On Water Bodies.
Bioprospecting Of Algal Species: Investigating The Potential Of Microalgae For biofuel Production, Pharmaceuticals, And Biofertilizers Through Metabolomic And Genomic Studies.
My Work Contributes To Advancing sustainable Water Treatment Technologies, Conservation Of Aquatic Biodiversity, And The Integration Of Molecular Approaches In Hydrobiological Research.
