I am studying on the application of statistical tool in the field of animal ecology as well as to use the molecular genetic technique for resolving the phylogenetic relationships of understudied bats species. In Malaysia, statistical methodology is still new rather than the molecular analysis that is well known to many fields. This has promotes statistical study in the aspects of evolution, adaptation, behavior and ecology of animals as well as to develop the usefulness and advantages of molecular genetic studies. Additionally, this morphometric approach is reliable as an alternative method for chiropteran’s identification which is simple and affordable. The outcomes from the research are useful for an effective planning and management to protect and conserve bats species and as well as other wildlife including their ecology. Besides that, I am looking forward to studying on the computational biology, ecology and also modeling. This study allows multiple data to be evaluated and understood ecologically by using specific mathematical models and computational technology.
