Educational background: Master of Science in Biology. Saratov State University, Department of animal ecology and morphology, 2005.
Dissertations: “The role of Culicomorpha (Diptera, Nematocera) in the substance and energy flows formed by emergence of amphibiotic insects across the water-air boundary of the floodplain lakes of the Volga River.” (PhD)
Research interests: changes in the immune system condition of birds throughout their annual cycle; the impact of environmental factors on the immune system condition of birds; the leukocyte profile of blood as an indicator of the physiological condition of birds; the effect of parasitic load on the immune system condition of birds at different stages of the annual cycle; the leukocyte profile of reptilian blood.
Field studies: Curonian Spit, Russia; Saratov region, Russia.
