Mohammad Hossein Rezadoost | Genomics | Best Researcher Award Published on 30/09/202530/09/2025 by Health Scientists Assist. Prof. Dr. Mohammad Hossein Rezadoost | Genomics | Best Researcher Award Teacher | University of Guilan | Iran Dr. Mohammad Hossein Rezadoost, currently serving as Head of the Biotechnology Department at the University of Guilan, Rasht, Iran, is a distinguished researcher with a PhD in Biotechnology and a career dedicated to advancing both agricultural and medical biotechnology. He earned his doctorate with a focus on molecular biology and plant biotechnology, building a strong foundation in genetic engineering and bioinformatics. Dr. Rezadoost’s research spans diverse areas including plant molecular biology, transgenic crop development, stress physiology, biopharmaceutical production in microbial hosts, and the discovery of plant-derived anticancer and therapeutic compounds. He has published extensively in high-impact journals such as Molecular Biology Reports, MethodsX, Journal of Medicine and Life, Inflammopharmacology, and Medical Chemistry Research, with landmark contributions on apoptosis induction in cancer cells, bioinformatics-guided protein expression, and innovative protocols for nucleic acid extraction from recalcitrant plant species. His co-authored books include Biotechnology and Plant Pests and Diseases and Pichia Pastoris: Host of Recombinant Protein, along with significant translation work in plant biochemistry. Recognized for his academic excellence, Dr. Rezadoost has received several national research awards and has been invited to present at prestigious congresses on biotechnology and genetics. He also contributes to the scientific community as a reviewer and editorial board member for international journals in biotechnology, molecular biology, and plant sciences. Through his leadership and innovative research, Dr. Rezadoost has established himself as a health scientist whose multidisciplinary contributions bridge agriculture, environment, and medicine, advancing both fundamental knowledge and translational applications with global impact.
