About Me
Welcome to my academic homepage! I am a graduate with a Ph.D. in Molecular Genetics, specializing in the intricate interactions between plants and microbes. My research focuses on the molecular aspects of plant-microbe interactions, particularly in the fields of gene expression and promoter engineering. I am dedicated to discovering virulence and effector genes in plant pathogens while simultaneously searching for resistance genes in plants, aiming to enhance our understanding of plant immunity and resilience.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I co-founded a startup dedicated to the production of recombinant antimicrobial peptides through molecular farming in plant systems. This innovative approach not only advances agricultural biotechnology but also contributes to the development of novel therapeutic agents.
I am deeply committed to fostering a collaborative research environment and actively seek partnerships with scientists and faculties from around the world who share an interest in these fields. By working together, we can combine our expertise, share resources, and tackle complex challenges in molecular genetics, plant-microbe interactions, and agricultural biotechnology.
Additionally, I am dedicated to nurturing the next generation of scientists and will be accepting MSc and PhD students, particularly from Persian-speaking countries and Muslim communities, to collaborate on cutting-edge research in these vital areas of study. Together, we can explore the fascinating realm of molecular genetics and its applications in improving plant health and agricultural sustainability, paving the way for groundbreaking advancements in the field
