This project was inspired by the continuous bush-fire event in 2019.I was fortunate to work under the supervision of Dr Brendan Choat.Played a role to be a part of designing the project experiment.Implementation of various scientific techniques: Composite phenotype scoring system, X-ray. microtomography microCT imaging technique for embolism, bench dehydration, measurements of vessel girth and counting of porous formations within the vessels using microCT images.Efficient usage of the machines considering the guidelines and safety measures. For example, I was responsible for using machinery like: CID, Plant canopy Imager CL- 100 to look at any phenotypical changes within the 600 random trees after the bushfires in Sydney Bicentennial Park.I have repeatedly performed statistical data analysis using ANOVA, followed by report writing with graphical images.At the end of every step, gathered feedback from the research scholars and professors during the presentation for the internship program.

I was extensively involved in assisting Dr Uffe Neilson with Soil testing and monitoring conditions for greenhouse plants for certain research projects under climate change.I enthusiastically extended my help for water quality testing, DNA extraction, and sequencing under other PhD students.Performed field inspection, sampling, data and statistical analysis followed by report writing.
