Ayda Ahmadi | Pancreatic Cancer | Best Researcher Award

Ms. Ayda Ahmadi | Pancreatic Cancer | Best Researcher Award 

Student | Sahand University of Technology | Iran

Ms. Ayda Ahmadi is an emerging young researcher in biomedical and pharmaceutical engineering whose academic performance, early research productivity, and strong technical training collectively position her as a promising candidate for a Best Researcher Award. Currently pursuing her M.Sc. in Chemical Engineering with a specialization in Pharmaceutical Engineering at Sahand University of Technology, she holds a solid academic foundation built on a high-performing B.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering (Biomaterials) from Khayyam University. Her hands-on experience includes two extensive 240-hour internships at Samen Pharmaceutical Company—where she gained valuable skills in pharmaceutical formulation, sterile production systems, GMP-based quality control, and laboratory documentation—and in a Dental Prosthesis Laboratory, where she developed practical expertise in biomaterials fabrication relevant to tissue engineering and biomedical device applications. Ayda’s research output reflects her focus on advanced drug delivery systems, nanotechnology, and biomaterials, demonstrated through significant works such as the preparation and characterization of silica nanoparticles and aerogels for smart drug delivery, the design of targeted nanocarriers for anticancer drug delivery to pancreatic tumors, and the study of calcium sulfate for treating bone infections in diabetic patients. With manuscripts submitted and under review, she shows early publication initiative and a clear commitment to building a strong scientific portfolio. Her technical proficiency across COMSOL Multiphysics, MATLAB, Aspen HYSYS, OriginPro, and data management tools further enhances her research capability, supported by multiple certifications. Ayda’s research interests—spanning nanostructure functionalization, controlled antibiotic release, and biomedical applications of engineered materials—align strongly with global research priorities in precision medicine and therapeutic innovation. Motivated to participate in international conferences and collaborative projects, she demonstrates ambition, discipline, and scientific curiosity, making her a suitable and competitive candidate for recognition in young researcher or early-career researcher award categories.
