Short biography:

I was born in Iran in 1982. I got my diploma in mathematics from SAMPAD in 2000 and admitted to the University of Tehran; four years later I graduated in Mechanical Engineering. I also got both of my MSc and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Tehran in 2006 and 2011, respectively under supervisions of Prof. V. Esfahanian, Prof. F. Kowsary, and Prof. S.M. Vaez Allaei. In each level of my studies, I was required to be selected among a pool of applicants, all interested in studying in top national engineering schools!. I did some parts of my Ph.D. thesis at the University of Tokyo and Ecole Centrale Paris in collaboration with Prof. Sebastian Volz. Now, I live in my lovely hometown, Qazvin, and work at Imam Khomeini International University (IKIU) as an assistant professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department. I am also a researcher at the school of Nano-Science at IPM in Tehran and junior associate member of ICTP in Italy.
