| - I worked as a faculty member (Professor) at my home (Tehran-Iran) for roughly two decades. After my first graduation at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences (SBMUS), Tehran-Iran (Doctor of Medical Laboratory Sciences-DCLS), I continued my studies abroad at the University of Bristol (United Kingdom) for my PhD degree. Then I returned to my homeland and worked for the Iranian Blood Transfusion Organization (IBTO) as a faculty member of the IBTO Research Center simultaneously in charge of the education and research department at IBTO.
I was a member of the World Health Organization Advisory Panel for Blood Safety (GCBS), during 2006-2012.
Then I moved to SBUMS the second-largest medical university and the second-top-ranked medical university in Iran. The SBUMS began its mission in 1961 by establishing the School of Medicine. Presently, the university benefits from 13 schools admitting students in a wide and varied range of fields. Also, it benefits from 1400 faculty members and 12 university hospitals, which educate and train more than 13000 students at different levels. Since 1988, and following the merger of the Ministry of Health with Medical Education, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences is honored to have the responsibility of providing, maintaining, and promoting the health of more than 5,250,000 residents of Tehran, the capital of Iran, and the neighboring cities in Eastern and Southern Tehran Province, together with training students of many different health-related majors.
In 2012, I was promoted to full professor based on my academic and research profiles according to my country and university guidelines and regulations. I was the head of the laboratory hematology and blood bank department for 6 years. This department is responsible for educating some courses of students studying Medical Laboratory Sciences and most courses of those students studying Laboratory Hematology and Blood Bank at MSc& PhD levels. Since this department was established in 2013 at SBUMS, it has been approved for the education of the students in Laboratory Hematology and Blood Bank in PhD discipline.
My responsibilities include educating and training students in different disciplines including students in Medical Laboratory Sciences at BA discipline, students of Laboratory Hematology and Blood Bank at MSc and PhD disciplines, supervising post-graduate students, conducting approved research proposals, improving our educational department and working as the member of editorial board of some medical journals.
In addition, I served as Dean of the School of Allied Medical Sciences at my university from February 2018 until June 2020.
I have been a member of the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT) since 2004 (continued). It is worth mentioning that I was elected as the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT) Regional Director of Eastern Mediterranean for 2014-2018.
Also, I served as a member of the Board of Advisors at the Iranian Blood Transfusion Organization (IBTO) from 2018-2021. The Blood Transfusion High Council (IBTO) comprises five professionals in blood transfusion sciences and practice.
In the meantime, I have been working as Executive Director of the Iranian Society of Transfusion Sciences since 2017, as a member of the Advisory Panel for the Laboratory Hematology and Transfusion Sciences at Iran Mystery of Health and Medical Education since 2005, and as Executive Director of the Advisory Panel for the Laboratory Hematology and Transfusion Sciences at Iran mystery of Health and Medical Education From 2019.
Now, I am a full professor of Clinical Immunohematology in the Laboratory Hematology & Blood Bank Educational Department at the SBUMS, where I served as head of the department for 6 years and as Dean of the School of Allied Medical Sciences at my university from February 2018 until June 2020.
I have never been a moment apart from the issues of blood safety and transfusion medicine both during my tenures in IBTO and university. I have been living with transfusion medicine since the years back in my 20s. It is a field in which you can find society, community, psychology, economics, industry, habits, faith, and dedication and I do enjoy it. I am from a region where we still need to make more dreams come true: safer blood and more accessibility. I come from a region thirsty for development for a brighter future in transfusion medicine. More steps are required to boost education and research and fill the voids. It is ready for cooperation and commitment. I in any position as an academic consider myself committed to working for it. I have the honor of having precious friends who have always grasped my hands for cooperation and engagement, a sort of engagement that would be prosperous for all of us caring for blood, caring for patients, and caring for a safer world.
Finally, I am also interested in Clinical Immunology, Clinical hematology, and Cancer Biology alongside
