Congratulations Rasim Aslanov on his 70th anniversary!

It is the 70th anniversary of the leading researcher of the laboratory “Structure, Dynamics and Functions of biomolecules” of the Institute of Biophysics, Doctor of Philosophy in Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Associate Professor Rasim Bakhtiyar Aslanov.

Rasim Bakhtiyar Aslanov was born on October 19, 1952, in the village of Farzaly, Gedabek district. In 1970 he graduated from secondary school No. 13 in Sumgayit and entered the Physics Faculty of Baku State University.

From 1974 to 2002 he worked at the Institute of Physics as a laboratory assistant, senior assistant, engineer, senior engineer, junior researcher, researcher, and senior researcher.

In 1981-1985, he completed an internship at the Laboratory of Radiospectroscopy at the Institute of Chemical Physics in Moscow. In the same years, the structure of fibrillar proteins was studied by electron paramagnetic resonance after exposure to ultraviolet rays, and he defended his Ph.D. thesis on this topic in 1988.

From 2002 to September 2010, he worked as an instructor at the “Umid” Center for Humanitarian Social Support.
