Dr. Ehsan Arabzadeh is a health scientist and researcher currently serving as Director of Research at Histogenotech Company, Tehran, Iran, with an academic background deeply rooted in exercise physiology and sports sciences. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in Physical Education and Sport Sciences from Ferdowsi University of Mashhad (2011), followed by a Master’s in Exercise Physiology from the University of Mazandaran (2013), and later completed his Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology at Urmia University (2018), where he was recognized as an Exceptional Talent scholar by the Iranian National Elite Foundation. His research focuses on molecular and cellular exercise physiology, exercise biochemistry, clinical exercise physiology, and the therapeutic role of herbal and nano-supplement interventions, with significant contributions to understanding cardiokines, myokines, adipokines, oxidative stress, neurodegeneration, and metabolic disorders. Dr. Arabzadeh has authored and co-authored numerous publications in high-impact journals such as Nutrition, Pflügers Archiv-European Journal of Physiology, Biogerontology, Gene, and Journal of Food Biochemistry, where his studies explored exercise’s role in liver disease, cardiovascular function, skeletal muscle adaptation, and neuroprotection. His scientific excellence has been recognized through prestigious honors, including membership in the Iranian National Elite Foundation (awarded to less than 0.3% of Iranian students) and the Shahid Tehrani Moghaddam Award in 2019, alongside sporting achievements such as silver medals in national badminton competitions. In addition to his research, Dr. Arabzadeh has teaching experience at Urmia and Mazandaran Universities and serves on editorial and peer-review boards of several scientific journals, further contributing to advancing the fields of exercise physiology and health sciences. He has 267 citations from 43 documents with an h-index of 10.
