Biography
Dr. Mohamad Reza Baghaban Eslaminejad graduated with a degree in Anatomical Sciences from Tarbiat Modarres University in 2004. Since then, he has worked as an academic staff member at Royan Institute, a major center for stem cell research in Iran. In early days of his employment, he established a lab for mesenchymal stem cells (M.SCs) in Royan Institute. The aim of the lab is to pave the way for M.SCs application in reconstructing bone and cartilage defects. To do so, he has published several (about 80) international and national papers on M.SCs. Some of his major achievements include the introduction of a novel method for the purification of murine M.SCs, presenting a novel surface marker for murine M.SCs and the innovation of an efficient method for M.SCs seeding onto bone 3D scaffolds. At the present, his research has reached the clinical trial stage: using M.SCs for human skeletal repair.
