Farhad Vahid Email & Phone Number

My name is Farhad, and I am a Postdoc Researcher at the Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH). My research interests are primarily directed toward understanding how the inflammation and oxidative stress induced by diet can cause human disease. I am particularly interested in learning how diet interacts with the immune system and how it influences disease development. As an assistant professor at Arak University of Medical Science Arak, Iran, and a doctoral student at the Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences Tehran, Iran, I was trained and practiced in the fundamental methodologies of designing and implementing studies that helped me investigate the role of chronic inflammation in the incidence of a wide range of diseases. I investigated the interactions of the diet with inflammation in metabolic diseases such as prediabetes, cardiovascular disease, and various cancers. Through these projects, I established a robust conceptual and technical framework in nutrition studies that I used to develop a line of investigation focused on defining the role of diet and dietary compounds in oxidative stress and Inflammation development. Also, I have studied the association between the qualities of the diet in different outcomes.In addition to my research, I have experience teaching and mentoring undergraduate and postgraduate students.
