Biography

Holding a Ph.D. in Crop Science and Horticulture from Széchenyi István University, Hungary, and extensive research experience in sustainable cropping systems, soil fertility, biostimulants, biofertilizers, and climate-smart agriculture. My expertise includes field trials, advanced data analysis, and stakeholder collaboration.

During my doctoral studies, I designed and managed field experiments evaluating the impact of microalgae-based biostimulants and biofertilizers on soil health and crop productivity. This research provided valuable insights into sustainable nutrient management strategies, contributing to climate resilience in agriculture. The outcomes of my PhD dissertation, which focused on the synergistic impacts of microalgae-based biofertilizers and biostimulants, along with soil bacteria, on crop growth and soil fertility, paved the way for a Hungarian-Israeli collaboration project.

Additionally, in my current role as a Research Fellow, I have demonstrated collaborative projects on precision agriculture, cropping systems, and biofertilizer applications, further strengthening my expertise in sustainable agricultural practices. Notably, I initiated a collaborative research project with "Shoots by Syngenta," aimed at addressing practical agrarian challenges in tackling the changing climate, further enhancing my writing and project management skills. Collaborating with industry partners and international projects, provided me with designing and executing field trials like microbial inoculant applications to improve soil health and productivity while minimizing carbon footprints.

Beyond research, I have a strong background in scientific communication, with multiple peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations. My proficiency in statistical tools such as R, SAS, and QGIS enables me to analyze complex datasets effectively. A key strength of mine is managing, analyzing, and visualizing large datasets, which form the foundation for robust experimental design and quantitative modeling. Furthermore, my experience in coordinating multi-stakeholder projects has equipped me to translate research findings into practical recommendations for farmers and policymakers.
