I have more than 10 years’ experience of mentoring and lecturing Pharmacology to undergraduate / graduate students. My interests are primarily neuropharmacology; memory assessment, depression models and dissection of different parts of the rat brain. My ongoing research projects focus on acute and chronic depression models with the aim of discovering new receptors and introducing complementary medicine for depression.  I am evaluating the relationship of drugs on depression-like behavior and hippocampal BDNF level. I am very keen to  get the chance to understand the neuronal circuits involved in depression, and the molecular-cellular changes in diseases. I am looking forward having the opportunity to translate my research that almost always involved animal models of disease into a final and fully approved therapeutic agent.
