Society of Dermatology, Founder and Managing Director, Network of Dermatology Research (NDR), This research group at Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) was developed in 2018. The primary goal was to facilitate communication between medical students interested in dermatology and the senior researchers in the field. One of the exceptional outcomes of this research group is a book under publication by Springer-Nature titled 'The Immunogenetics of Dermatological diseases'. Through NDR we were able to reach out to more than 30 authors from around the world to complete this book. The main focus of the group has been on immunogenetics and immune-dermatology which could provide a better understanding of the pathogenesis of skin conditions with the hope of improving treatments options for these fairly common diseases. As the director of this research group my job includes a voluntary, part-time research activity and does not include employment or any financial benefits., ORCID, https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5994-1997, Google Scholar, https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=eLIZd8oAAAAJ&hl=en, Scopus, https://www.scopus.com/authid/detail.uri?authorId=57202875094
