Mehran Salehpour is an Associate Professor in physics from Uppsala University, Sweden. He has worked for many years within the interdisciplinary field of biomedical physics and was one of the pioneers in the then-new field of protein mass spectrometry. He received a Ph.D. in Nuclear/Ion Physics from Uppsala university at the age of 25 and has worked as a researcher in both the USA and Sweden. He has published over 80 peer-reviewed papers in international scientific journals, including the highest-ranked ones such as Nature, Science, and Cell. He has also been awarded a prize from the European Physical Society for outstanding research.
He was born in Tehran, Iran in 1960. A Persian father and a German mother facilitated insight into the arbitrariness of cultures and ways of life. He moved to England when he was fourteen to do O-Levels and A-Levels, which were later complemented with a B.Sc. in physics from the University of Sussex. After a doctorate and a few years of research in the USA, he left the academic life for eighteen years and worked in the industry for over fifteen years as among others, Managing Director, before going back to research.
He has also been known for very long lunches and taking a couple of years of vacation at a time. All his occupations so far seemed rather serious, and he is currently trying to find something less somber to do.
He is married, has four children, and lives in Swedenview less
