Leila's research focuses on nuclear proliferation and disarmament, and the intersection of international law with decolonisation, particularly in the Global South.

She has published work on the nuclear nonproliferation regime and its historical ties to colonialism, with a particular focus on nuclear testing and environmental justice.

Leila has contributed to various conferences and symposiums.

Her current work explores the decolonisation of nuclear governance frameworks, especially the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW), and how such frameworks challenge global power dynamics.
