Safia Janjua works on conservation genetics and genomics, with a strong focus on snow leopards, including their population structure, genetic diversity, and evolutionary history. Her research also involves DNA-based methods for identifying wildlife products, such as DNA barcoding to detect illegally traded animal materials made from processed skins. This work combines molecular biology techniques (like DNA sequencing) with wildlife conservation applications.
