Research Profile
I have studied Biomedical Engineering in the field of biomechanics for my bachelor at Amirkabir University of Technology. I then studied tissue engineering for my master. After finishing my studies, I have been a researcher for more than 7 years in Pasteur Institute.
I am highly experienced in tissue engineering, cell culturing techniques, cell toxicity tests (MTT), histology, gene expression methods, real time PCR technique (RT-PCR), Atomic Force Microscopic techniques, confocal microscopic, optical microscope, engineering software, and different statistical analyses.
Through my extensive research and lab experience, I produced 4 ISI publications, 1 national patent license, and presented at international conferences.
