I received my master degree in “ecology and conservation biology” from Uppsala University in 2013, my thesis addressed the genetic structure of Grévy’s zebra (Equus grevyi) in Ethiopia using mitochondrial and microsatellite variability from non-invasive samples. I also did another research on genetic status of wild boar (Sus scrofa) in Iran based on molecular markers. In collaboration with BIODESERTS researchers we did a study for quantification of past and present suitable habitats for the Asiatic Cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus venaticus) in Iran, using biotic and abiotic factors. In future, I want to expand my research to global range of this species. My main research interests are Conservation biology, population genetics, ecology, wildlife and ecosystem management and ecological modelling. My goal is to contribute to biodiversity conservation through academic research.
