ResearchGate profile: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Mehdi-Tavakoli-6
I was born in Tehran, Iran. I earned my BSc in Geology from Shahid Beheshti University and my MSc in Geology, specializing in Structural Geology and Tectonics, from Tarbiat Modares University.
I have over 15 years of experience in hydrocarbon exploration, working as a geologist and geophysicist, seismic data interpreter, and technical and financial evaluator of petroleum exploration projects.
Seeking to enhance my academic knowledge, I joined the Harquail School of Earth Sciences at Laurentian University as a PhD candidate in Mineral Deposits and Precambrian Geology.
