Anatomical and Gametogenesis Research Center | Iran
Dr. Javad Amini Mahabadi is an accomplished Iranian researcher in reproductive biology, stem cell science, and assisted reproductive technologies, affiliated with the Gametogenesis Sciences Research Center and the Anatomical Sciences Research Center at Kashan University of Medical Sciences, as well as the Sarem Gynecology, Obstetrics and Infertility Research Center and the Sarem Cell Research Center in Tehran. Born on 22 March 1985 in Ardestan, Isfahan, he holds a Ph.D. in Reproductive Biology from Kashan University of Medical Sciences, an M.Sc. in Animal Physiology from the University of Zanjan, and a B.Sc. in Animal Science from Razi University. His research interests span reproductive biology, IVF and ICSI, stem cells, medical genetics, histopathology, physiology, and animal science. Dr. Amini Mahabadi has an impressive scientific footprint with h-index 12 in Google Scholar and 9 in Scopus, reflecting influential contributions in male fertility, germ cell differentiation, embryonic development, nanofiber-based stem cell engineering, and the protective effects of natural compounds on reproductive tissues. He has authored and co-authored more than 20 international journal papers in highly regarded outlets such as Andrologia, Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, Cytotherapy, Journal of Cellular Physiology, Theriogenology, and Gene, as well as several internal journal publications. His scholarly works include pioneering studies on the differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells into male and female germ cell lineages, microRNA roles in stem cell biology, reproductive toxicity, and therapeutic approaches using natural extracts and biomaterials. With extensive experience in laboratory animal handling, histological and molecular techniques, MEF and iPSC culture, IVF/ICSI procedures, and embryology, he is also well-versed in advanced assays including flow cytometry, real-time PCR, Western blotting, immunocytochemistry, and micromanipulation. Dr. Amini Mahabadi has supervised numerous research projects and actively served as a referee for journals such as the Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences and Pharmaceutical Biology. He has taught at university level, delivered workshops on stem cell culture, sperm analysis, scientific writing, and research methodology, and contributed significantly to the student research committee at KAUMS. His professional training includes specialized courses in stem cell culture at Bonyakhteh Center, IVF and ICSI at Kashan Beheshti Hospital, and ART techniques at Sarem Women’s Hospital. Supported by a strong network of academic referees, Dr. Amini Mahabadi continues to advance reproductive science through rigorous research, clinical collaboration, and scientific mentorship.
