As a budding ecologist, Ramit’s interests include plant–pollinator interactions, conservation ecology, and the socio-implementation of conservation. A Zoology postgraduate from Central University of Kerala, his previous work has explored the biochemistry and ecology of civet coffee, pollinator interactions in cucurbits, bee behavioural ecology, malacophily, and bioinformatics. His current work focuses on cultivating diversity and allied agroecological assessments to understand eco-scape and food dynamics in Central India, including outreach programs with indigenous communities in Madhya Pradesh. He also enjoys exploring design, art, and cultural content writing, including media features.
