1. Developed a novel method for measuring fiber length variation for use in phenotyping germplasm in cotton breeding and other research efforts. 2. Successfully obtained National Science Foundation funding to support the commercialization of the new fiber length measurement. 3. Developed a multivariate method for calibrating the new fiber length measurements to be used by all the HVIs.4. Worked on the improvement of cotton fiber length distribution using Single Boll Decent (SBD) and pedigree breeding using the new length measurement.5. Conducted research project planning, design, implementation, data collection, and analysis. 6. Involved in experimental field planning, planting, hoeing, harvesting and ginning.7. Presented research results at professional conferences.

I worked as a Research Assistant at Dr. Md Monirul Islam's lab for a project titled "Monitoring Terrestrial Organisms for the Impact Zone of Summit Bibiyana II Power Company Limited (SBIIPCL)".We have analyzed the major causes of changes in floral diversity using focus group discussion (FGD) data for the establishment of a power plant at Parkul, Hobiganj in Bangladesh. We investigated the impact of these changes on the regular lifestyle of the local population.
