Biography

Dr. Hamda Azmat, Assistant Professor (TTS), Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture, University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Lahore, holds M.Sc and Ph.D. degrees in Zoology.  Her fundamental expertise is in the field of Fresh Water Fisheries and Aquatic Toxicology, especially the effect of water pollutants to fresh water fisheries of Pakistan as environmental pollutants are major threats to aquatic life. Besides, these research areas Dr. Hamda Azmat has conducted research projects to enhance fish growth with a blend of different feed recipes. Further more she supervised the research projects of BS (Hons.) Fisheries and Aquaculture and M.Sc. Wetlands Management. Dr. Hamda has 03 research publications in journals with impact factor and 04 conference proceedings to her name.
