Assoc. Prof. Dr. Farzaneh Marahel | Editorial Board Member Award

Islamic Azad University | Iran

Dr. Farzaneh Marahel is a faculty member in the Department of Chemistry at Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran, where she has developed a strong research profile in analytical chemistry, sensor design and nanomaterials-based environmental and biological monitoring. Her documented output includes over 40 publications and more than 1,000 citations according to ResearchGate. While a formal h-index value could not be verified publicly, her citation record suggests a solid impact in her field. Her education background is in chemistry and nanomaterials (Iran) and she has progressed through roles involving analytical method development and nanostructured sensor fabrication for real-world samples (blood, urine, drinks, foods). Her research interests focus on quantum dots, G-C₃N₄ nanosheets, electrochemical and spectrofluorimetric sensing platforms for toxic compounds, dyes and pharmaceutically relevant analytes. Recent work includes a resonance Rayleigh scattering technique using GSH-capped PbS quantum dots and a square-wave anodic stripping voltammetric sensor employing G-C₃N₄ nanosheets. She is also active in peer-review, having reviewed for journals such as Langmuir, Separation and Purification Technology and Sustainable Chemistry & Pharmacy. Given her continuing output and review service, she is a promising mid-career researcher whose work helps bridge nanomaterials, environmental analysis and medical-bioanalytical sensing. In summary, Dr. Marahel represents an emerging leader in nanosensor research with growing scholarly impact and an applied focus on real-world analytical challenges.
