Plant Science

My earlier research was in controlled-environment agriculture: I designed lighting experiments, ran the statistics and published the results as first author.

Highlights

  • MSc in controlled-environment agriculture and greenhouse crop production at the University of Tehran, after a BSc in Horticultural Science & Engineering.
  • Designed spectral-lighting experiments on red and far-red night interruption in basil.
  • First-author, peer-reviewed paper in Plants, 13, 3145 (MDPI).
  • Hands-on experience in greenhouse operations and on a family citrus orchard.
