Ehsan Omidvar is a Research Fellow at ICVS/3B's Associate Laboratory/School of Medicine of the University of Minho in the project "Defining how cocaine alters laterodorsal tegmentum to nucleus accumbens inputs and relevance for the development of natural reward deficits" under the supervision of Bárbara Coimbra and performing large-scale electrophysiological recordings with optogenetic manipulation in regions of the reward circuit in anesthetized animals as well as histological validation of the recordings. He graduated with a BSc degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology from the University of Mohaghegh Ardebili/Iran. His degree is recognized as "Applied Biology" by the University of Minho with the final grade of 15 out of 20. During his bachelor, he was granted with two paid internships at the Golestan University of Medical Science and AryaTinagene Biopharmaceutical Company where then he was working as a part-time researcher. He also obtained an MSc in Molecular Genetics from the University of Minho, with a final grade of 18 out of 20. His master's Thesis was entitled "Autophagy and alpha-synuclein toxicity during aging" and was performed under the supervision of Paula Ludovico (School of Medicine/UMinho) and Sandra Paiva (School of Sciences/UMinho) and was graded 19/20 where he gained experience in various Molecular Biology techniques such as Immunoblotting, Plasmid construction, and Cloning in addition to Protein Trafficking. Importantly, during his master's degree, he was awarded with an Erasmus Research Internship Scholarship and Visiting Scholar position at a top-notch institution of the University of KU Leuven/ Belgium. In parallel, he attended several scientific conferences, and he was part of the organising committee of scientific events such as European Research Night 2022. Notably, he also participated in the review, publication, and translation of a book. Besides, he also attended several seminars and advanced courses particularly two international advanced and online courses from Canada entitled Genome editing technology with CRISPR/Cas9 system and Basics of Bioinformatics.
