BioI earned my MD from Tehran University of Medical Sciences. Currently, I conduct research in Dr. Nguyen’s lab, where I focus on how the immune system contributes to the development of cardiovascular diseases, particularly atherosclerosis. I use cutting-edge technologies such as single-cell RNA sequencing to explore the complex interactions between immune cells and the vascular system. Outside of work, I enjoy playing soccer, working out, hiking, and spending time with friends.
