Dr. Hamidreza Sharifan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Florida Atlantic University and leads Sharif-ARM—Advanced Remediation and Monitoring. His research brings together environmental chemistry, nanotechnology, and sustainable treatment strategies to address a fundamental challenge: understanding contaminants in the environment and developing effective ways to detect and remove them.

His research interests include PFAS, emerging contaminants, water quality, and the design of functional materials for environmental applications. His work explores carbon-based nanomaterials, adsorption processes, and the interactions between contaminants and biological systems. He is also developing research on Sargassum biomass utilization, connecting coastal environmental challenges with opportunities for resource recovery and sustainable materials development.

At the heart of Dr. Sharifan’s research is a commitment to linking chemical understanding with practical environmental solutions. Through Sharif-ARM, he aims to advance approaches that integrate sensitive monitoring, effective remediation, and responsible resource use.

Dr. Sharifan is dedicated to mentoring undergraduate and graduate researchers through hands-on investigation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and scientific communication. His vision is to build a research community that equips emerging scientists to turn environmental challenges into opportunities for discovery and innovation.
