I’m Ehsan Shad, a project researcher in microbiology, with a strong interest in how bacteria function and interact with their environment. My research focuses on:
-
Exploring the functional properties of bacteria, especially probiotics and their health benefits
-
Investigating antimicrobial compounds and their mechanisms of action on bacterial cells
-
Production of bacteria and their metabolites for functional or industrial purposes
-
Troubleshooting microbial monitoring issues in applied research or industry
I’m always open to research collaboration, exchange of ideas, or tackling real-world microbiological challenges. Feel free to connect!
