About Me
My Story
I believe that, if you work hard and do your best, you can do anything. Throughout my life, I’ve approached every challenge with enthusiasm and do my best. I am an M.Sc. graduate of neuroscience at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Basic Sciences (I.A.S.B.S). I just graduated this spring. I have worked as a researcher in the Neuroscience Lab at Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences (I.P.M). I am trying to expand my knowledge in the biomedical and electrophysiology area.

Research Interest
Microcontroller Programming
Signal Processing
Electrophysiology & Neuroscience
Neural Networks
Microcontroller Programming
Microcontroller programming can seem a bit tricky mainly because there are many confusing choices to make. I'm focused on learning PSoC (programmable system-on-chip) programming and I have started working on the PSoC 5LP development kit. But I'm also familiar with Arduino programming.
Signal Processing
Signal Processing for Neuroscientists introduces analysis techniques primarily aimed at neuroscientists and biomedical engineering students with a reasonable but modest background in mathematics, physics, and computer programming. During working on my master dissertation, I have worked with different signal processing tools likewise Matlab, R and Originlab.
Electrophysiology & Neuroscience
Electrophysiology is the study of the electrical properties of biological cells and tissues. In neuroscience, it includes measurements of the electrical activity of neurons and, particularly, action potential activity.
Neuroscience is the scientific study of molecular, cellular, developmental, structural, functional, evolutionary, computational, and medical aspects of the nervous system.
During my master degree, I studied computational neuroscience. So, I believe that I can cope with both of programming and biology part of this field. On the other hand, in collaboration with Prof. Pourrezaei and Dr. Taallohi, I try to expand my biomedical and electrophysiology knowledge.
Neural Networks
An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is an information processing paradigm that is inspired by the way biological nervous systems, such as the brain, process information. An ANN is configured for a specific application, such as pattern recognition or data classification, through a learning process. Learning in biological systems involves adjustments to the synaptic connections that exist between the neurons.
I believe that my future career and learning in biological systems are chain together. So, I accept every challenge in this subject with enthusiasm.

Interests and Hobbies
Just for Fun
Photography
I am from one of the northern city in Iran, which is located in Mazandaran. Mazandaran is most tourist desired destination in Iran. My city is surrounded by jungle and near the ocean, according to my living environment, I love taking photos of spectacular scenery.
Bowling
Without any doubt, bowling is my best hubby during my leisure time.
Football
I am a big fan of the Manchester United football club. Of course, In my adolescence, I was a football player.
