Pegah Javadpour Editor

Dr. Rasoul Ghasemi, PhD, is an Associate Professor of Physiology in the Department of Physiology, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran. His research explores the neurophysiology of learning and memory, with emphasis on insulin signaling, hippocampal function, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and neuroprotection in neurodegenerative diseases. He has published extensively on the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying brain resilience and pathology. Dr. Pegah Javadpour, PhD, is an Assistant Professor of Medical Physiology at the Neuroscience Research Center, Institute of Neuroscience and Cognition, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran. Her research focuses on mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation in neurodegenerative disorders, particularly Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease. She has a special interest in mitochondria-targeted therapeutic strategies, including mitochondrial transplantation therapy (mitotherapy), as potential treatments for these conditions. Sahar Askari (PhD) has a PhD in medical physiology from Iran with thesis title: Behavioral and molecular effects of Thapsigargin (ER stress inducer) on the memory impairment (in-vivo) with the considering MAPKs (JNK, ERK, P38), IRS-1 and apoptosis pathways, and the role of the time in ER stress performance and related molecules (in-vitro (cell culture). She published few papers on animal models, surgeries, and in vivo modelling of NDG disorders.
