Hamid Amini is an Iranian researcher and academic affiliated with the Department of Physical Education and Sport Sciences at Tolou-e-Mehr Non-profit Institute of Higher Education in Qom, whose scholarly work centers on exercise physiology, physical activity, and the interaction between physical training, health, and disease prevention. His research portfolio reflects a strong interdisciplinary approach that integrates sports science with public health, immunology, neurodegeneration, and molecular biology. Amini has contributed significantly to understanding how different forms of physical activity influence inflammatory markers, oxidative stress, immune responses, and functional capacity across diverse populations, including women with multiple sclerosis, elderly women, COVID-19 patients, and animal models of Alzheimer’s disease. During the COVID-19 pandemic, his work gained particular relevance through studies examining physical inactivity trends, the relationship between pre-disease activity levels and disease severity, and the need to update global physical activity policies, highlighting his engagement with population-level health challenges. He has also explored exercise-induced muscle damage and recovery, investigating interventions such as herbal supplements, vibration therapy, vitamin D, and combined pharmacological and natural treatments to mitigate delayed-onset muscle soreness and related biochemical changes. Beyond applied human studies, his publications include experimental research on molecular pathways, cytokine expression, heat shock proteins, and growth factors influenced by aerobic and resistance training, demonstrating methodological breadth from clinical to laboratory-based research. In addition, Amini has examined organizational and educational dimensions of physical education, including empowerment, organizational learning, and tacit knowledge transfer among educators, reflecting an interest in both human performance and institutional effectiveness. His work has appeared in a range of international journals and book chapters, and he actively contributes to the scientific community through peer review for multidisciplinary journals. Overall, Hamid Amini’s research profile illustrates a sustained commitment to advancing evidence-based exercise science with clear implications for health promotion, disease management, and public policy.
