Brief Biography

I received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Tehran in 2019 and will graduate with an M.S. in Bioengineering from Clemson University in December 2023. I am a well-published researcher, and a former member of the Human-Robot Interaction Laboratory (TaarLab for its Persian abbreviation), under the supervision of Dr. Mehdi Tale Masouleh. I was involved in various research projects during my undergrad, including the Advanced Robotics and Intelligence Systems Lab under the supervision of Dr. Hadi Moradi. After UT, I joined a start-up company (ETCCo) as an R&D engineer to develop computer vision technology for Computer-Assisted Sperm Analysis (CASA). Later, I joined Kaveh Glass Industrial Group to spearhead a critical automation project for real-time detection and classification of defects in float glass fabrication. Currently, I am a graduate research assistant at Clemson University working on an NIH-funded project for automated surgical skill assessment using a novel bench-top simulator as part of an interdepartmental team.

My current research interests are Robotics, Wearable Devices, HRI, Surgical Simulation, and Computer Vision. Visit IEEEXploreResearch Gate, or Google Scholar to see my publications.
