Curriculum Vitae

parastou Sadeghi

I had received my BSc. Degree in Natural Environmental Engineering from Payame Noor University of Mashhad, Iran, in 2011, and I had also worked as a trainee in the Botanical Garden of Mashhad on analyzing the soil and studied about natural resources, biodiversity, and environmental pollution, and then I received my MSc. in Environmental pollution from Gorgan University of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, Iran, in 2015 and my dissertation was about the removing of heavy metals, such as cadmium from aqueous solutions by using the combination of algae and nanoparticles. The combination of biology and nanotechnology, which received a grant from the Iran Nanotechnology Innovation Council (INIC). I participated in some conferences and published some articles mainly in Persian about water and soil pollution. Then, after finishing my Master's degree, I started to teach in a university as a volunteer (not officially) to help my professor and gaining more experience regarding teaching, at the same time, I passed my IELTS exam with an acceptable mark. Since September of 2018, I have started my Ph.D. courses in Environmental Engineering at the University of Porto (FEUP). Besides, I worked as a researcher in the project of "BIOCriticalMetals" which is about bioleaching tests using microbial community for biosorption of heavy metals, from mining wastes in the bioreactor through Biotechnology methods. In 2020, I have started a project-ECO2COVID about the detection of COVID-19 in wastewater by designing an immunosensor and wrote a chapter of the book as a co-writer about polymer. In 2021, I have started a short-time project TechniCov aims to develop new platforms for a cheap and fast detection and monitoring of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. These days, I am trying to publish two written articles, based on the last 2 projects. In all the years of my study, I have been trying to develop a good sense of research.
