RESEARCH INTERESTS

ecology, nature conservation, bird monitoring, 
annual cycles of birds, migrations and moult of birds

I am most interested in studying ecology and regulation of the annual cycle in passerine short distance migrants and so called “invasion” species. My main objects are different species of tits (the Great Tit, Coal Tit, Willow Tit), the Goldcrest, Long-tailed Tit, Treecreeper.

EDUCATION

(2000): PhD in Biology, St.Petersburg State University 
Thesis title: "Postjuvenile moult of the Great Tit Parus major L. and some aspects of autumn migration and wintering in first-year birds”
(1988): MS in Zoology, St.Petersburg State University.

EMPLOYMENT

2002 - present date: Senior research officer at Biological research Institute of St.Petersburg State University; 
1995 – 2002: Research officer at Biological research Institute of St.Petersburg State University; 
1988 – 1995: Junior research officer at at Biological research Institute of St.Petersburg State University.
