Rasta Azizi

My name is Rasta Azizi,I hold a degree in Food Hygiene and Veterinary Medicine, complemented by a cumulative GPA of 3.78 on a 4.0 scale.

Through my academic experiences, I have developed substantial proficiency in a variety of laboratory techniques, including auto analyzers, cell counters, ELISA, PCR, GC/MS, and HPLC. Additionally, I am skilled in programming with Python and utilizing bioinformatics tools. My academic journey has ignited a profound interest in food chemistry, microbiology, and food safety—areas that I consider essential for advancing my scientific knowledge and practical skill set.

My previous research has included investigations into pesticide accumulation in commercially significant fish species from Anzali Lake, as well as studies that assess the efficacy of algal metabolites in extending the shelf life of shrimp. Most recently, I successfully isolated antibacterial steroid compounds from Ulva fasciata, resulting in a publication in an ISI-indexed journal. Moreover, I have conducted both in vivo and in vitro tests on several key pathogens, including Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E. coli, Salmonella typhi, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. My evaluations included assessing extraction efficacy and comparing it to traditional preservation methods, such as tetracycline and sodium metabisulfite.

I am eager to explore the opportunity to collaborate in your laboratory to further enhance my expertise. Additionally, I aspire to pursue a career in academia, and I believe that the experience gained under your mentorship would significantly enrich my professional development.

Thank you very much for considering my inquiry. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to your esteemed research initiatives.

 Warm regards,
