Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mina Jamzad | Islamic Azad University | Iran
Dr. Mina Jamzad is an Associated Professor of Organic Chemistry at the Qods Branch of the Islamic Azad University, where she has established a strong academic presence in natural products chemistry, phytochemistry, and the structural characterization of terpenoids and essential oils. She earned her PhD in Organic Chemistry from the Islamic Azad University, Science and Research Campus, where her research focused on the essential oil composition of selected Labiatae species and the extraction, isolation, purification, and structure elucidation of valuable terpenoids. Building on this foundation, she completed her master’s degree in Organic Chemistry at the university’s North Tehran Branch, conducting detailed studies on the essential oil profiles of Stachys pilifera and Salvia xanthochelea under the mentorship of Professor Abdolhossein Rustaiyan. Throughout her career, Dr. Jamzad has produced impactful research, contributing significantly to the understanding of aromatic plant chemistry and bioactive natural compounds. Her scholarly output includes numerous publications, collectively receiving 2,600 citations, supported by an h-index of 23 and an i10-index of 26, underscoring the scientific relevance and sustained influence of her work. Dedicated to both research and education, she continues to advance organic chemistry through rigorous scholarship and committed academic service.
