About me
Parinaz Poursafa is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Tampere Institute for Advanced Study for the period 2025–2027. She is currently working in the Systems Biology of Aging research group in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Technology at Tampere University.
With over a decade of research experience in environmental health sciences and environmental epidemiology, she specializes in investigating how air pollution and other environmental exposures affect human health. Her current research focuses on the emerging role of environmental exposures as novel risk factors in biological aging, integrating environmental and biological data to uncover mechanisms underlying accelerated aging.
She is broadly interested in understanding the role of environmental exposures in health across the lifespan, contributing to a deeper understanding of the mechanisms through which the environment shapes health and disease.
