About Me

My name is Shahabeddin Abhari. I'm a researcher, lecturer, and consultant in the digital health domain. Now, I'm a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at UbiLab at the University of Waterloo since Jan 2023.

I had been an assistant professor of health information technology at Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences in Iran from 2020 until Jan 2023. I have completed a PhD in Health Information Management with a GPA of 18.73/20 at Tehran University of Medical Sciences, as the best medical university in Iran in 2020. I obtained an MSc in Health Information Technology with a GPA of 17.23/20 at Shiraz University of Medical Sciences in Iran in 2016. I also successfully completed MPH in Health Policy and MBA in Healthcare due to my interest in interdisciplinary approaches.

I have published many articles in specialized journals indexed in ISI, Scopus, PubMed, and other indexes during my academic activities. Also, I have attended and presented in many international and national scientific congresses. In addition, I have contributed to several research projects in some Iranian universities of medical sciences. My research interests are Telehealth, Digital Health, mHealth, Nutrition Informatics, Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Electronic Health Record (EHR), AI in Medical Sciences, Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS), Innovations in Digital Health, Health Policy, Health Equity, and Health Care Management.

Also, I have good teaching experience. I have been teaching intermittently since 2015. During these years, I have taught undergraduate students various courses for over 700 hours in the fields of health informatics, health information management, and health information technology. For all of the stated courses, my students had been very satisfied with my teaching.

I’m a very passionate teacher and researcher and consultant and I would like to help and collaborate with students, researchers, startup teams, companies, and managers that are active in digital health.
