As an Oceanographer based in Tashkent, I have played a pivotal role in advancing the scientific community’s understanding of Uzbekistan’s unique water systems. My work has directly influenced regional policies on water conservation and climate resilience. For instance, my research on the Aral Sea’s ecological recovery has been cited in national environmental strategies, while my collaborations with local universities have led to the establishment of a marine science curriculum at the National University of Uzbekistan.

Continuing to expand research initiatives focused on Uzbekistan’s inland water systems, with an emphasis on integrating technology and traditional knowledge. Aim to establish a regional oceanographic research center in Tashkent to foster innovation and collaboration among Central Asian nations. Additionally, I am committed to advocating for sustainable practices that align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation) and SDG 13 (Climate Action).
