Prof. Ali Masoudi-Nejad

Ali Masoudi-Nejad earned his Ph.D. in genomics under the supervision of Prof. Takashi Endo at Kyoto University (京都大学) in Japan. He then completed post-doctoral work in computational genomics at the James Hutton Institute in Dundee, Scotland and MRC-LMB in Cambridge, UK. He returned to Kyoto University for two consecutive post-docs in bioinformatics and systems biology with Prof. Minoru Kanehisa (金久 實), co-founder of The GenBank at NCBI and founder of the KEGG Database. In 2006, he returned to Iran and established the Laboratory of Systems Biology and Bioinformatics (LBB) at the University of Tehran, where he is currently a full professor. He established the first Ph.D. curriculum in bioinformatics at the University of Tehran in 2006, and to date, it has produced over 100 graduates, many of whom have become successful junior researchers abroad or successfully integrated into the international research community. Professor Masoudi-Nejad has served as an editor and guest editor for several journals, including Seminar in Cancer Biology, Scientific Reports, and Seminars in Cell and Developmental Biology. He is Founder and Head of the Bioinformatics Department at the Institute of Biochemistry and Biophysics at the University of Tehran. His primary research interests include:

• Computational systems biology
• Computational cancer genomics
• AI & Deep learning application in medicine
• Single-Cell analysis and network-based biomarker development
• Digital pathology and omics integration
• The role of the microbiome in disease
• Multi-omics interaction networks and network biology
• Drug repurposing and analysis of drug-target networks
• Genome-scale analysis of non-coding RNA
• Bioinformatics and algorithm development

Background: Molecular Biology

My graduation background is in Molecular Biology. My master's thesis was on determining breast cancer biomarkers by computational systems biology, bioinformatics, analysis of biological networks and experimental validation. I have sound expertise in a wide range of molecular and biochemical techniques. Recently, I am working on the discovery of novel genes and non-coding RNAs as biomarkers for gynecological diseases such as uterine fibroids and PCOS using systems biology and machine learning approaches. I am interested in the field of computational systems biology and bioinformatics with specific focus on reproductive biology and gynecological cancers.

Fazel Amirvahedi

Background: biotechnology

As a student in the interdisciplinary field of biotechnology, I have been studying and investigating various subjects, from bioreactor design to genetic engineering. I have worked on differential gene expression analysis on AMD/non-AMD patients towards finding potential biomarkers with the help of machine learning and different feature selection techniques. At the moment, for my master’s thesis, I would like to search for meaningful correlations between molecular biomarkers and those biomarkers which are extracted from electrophysiology data of neuropsychological disorders such as autism etc. For my future research horizon, I am interested in using multi-omics alongside electrophysiological data like fMRI, EEG and etc., in order to prediagnosis neural diseases.
