Pharmacognosy And Pharmaceutical Biotechnology

 

Dr Khodarahmi    

Brief introduction:

  Reza Khodarahmi(Professor in Biochemistry) was born in Nahavand-Iran, 1974. He received his Bsc degree in general Biology from the Razi University-Kermanshah and then graduated in Biochemistry (Msc) from the Tarbiat Modarres University-Tehran, and finally received his PhD degree in 2005 from the Institute of Biochemistry and Biophysics of the University of Tehran for his studies on the effects of artificial chaperones on protein misfolding and aggregation.

  Since 2007, he has held a position in the school of Pharmaceutical Sciences (and Medical Biology Research Center), Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences. His research interests focus on the in vitro characterization of oxidative events accompanying amyloid aggregation, drug-protein interaction and enzyme inhibition, using both experimental and computational tools. He is peer-reviewer and editorial board member of various international journals in the field of Molecular Biology, Biotechnology and Biochemistry.
