Nazanin Mahinparvar
Postdoctoral Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Nazanin Mahinparvar is a physician-scientist whose work brings together translational research, medical education, and procedural innovation. She received her Doctor of Medicine degree from Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Iran and is currently a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine at Stanford University.
As a faculty educator with the Stanford Anesthesia Summer Institute (SASI), She teaches skin anatomy, wound healing, local anesthesia, wound closure, and microsurgical skills through hands-on educational programs. She is also actively involved in global medical education and mentorship, supporting students and early-career trainees through research, procedural training, and career development.
Dr. Mahinparvar’s passion for pain research is deeply personal. Having experienced severe chronic pain during adolescence, she developed a lasting commitment to understanding pain mechanisms and improving the lives of patients through innovative, non-opioid therapies.
Beyond research, She has always been drawn to disciplines that combine creativity with precision. She enjoys watercolor painting, nail art, LEGO model building, and other hands-on creative activities that require meticulous attention to detail. She believes dermatology uniquely integrates art, science, technology, communication, pathology, diagnosis, and procedural medicine, making it the specialty that best reflects both her professional interests and personal strengths. She aspires to build an academic career in dermatology as a physician-scientist, educator, and mentor dedicated to advancing patient care, medical education, and translational research. -
