USERN iTalk 15 Got a Tap on Engineering and Medicine

Mojtaba Azadi, Young Associate Professor of Sanfransico State University. Azadi Holds A PhD In Robotics From University Of Alberta In Canada. He Completed His Master And Undergraduate Studies At Sharif University Of Technology And Tehran Universities In Iran, In The Areas Of Dynamics And Control.

USERN Talk 15 had a sense of rethink and renewal to the usual USERNTALK figure, and that was not just the new venue in the school of new technologies in medicine, and the lectures title. The new platform of USERN talks by young scientists and not necessarily top 1% scientists, but top scientists to be! The convergence center had never seen so much crowd 11 in the morning at the SNTM, clarifies Dr. Lotfi, director of the school. 

Dr. Azadi holds a PhD in Robotics from University of Alberta in Canada. He completed his master and undergraduate studies at Sharif University of Technology and Tehran universities in Iran, in the areas of dynamics and control. Prior to his PhD, hehad been working in industry for five years.

Before joining SFSU, he worked for four years at MIT on numbers of collaborative projects at the Biological, Mechanical Engineering Department and the Department of Materials Science and Engineering. These projects includes designing a Bio-tensegrity leg for a robotic cheetah and measuringmechanics of soft tissues such as skin, cartilage and cancer cell layers in micro and nano scale. He continues his collaboration with Center for Biomedical Engineering and Ortiz lab at MIT to develop new assessment tools for soft tissuesthat would accurately quantify the effects of drugs and medical interventions.
