WHO WE ARE
Dr. Nazzy Pakpour
I joined the faculty in the Department of Biological Sciences at CSU East Bay in the Fall of 2015. I have loved insects my whole life and once spent a summer at the Smithsonian Insect Museum doing daily tarantula feedings for the public. I find researching the weird weird world of parasites endlessly fascinating. I am also fully committed to the teaching and mentoring of students, during their time at CSUEB and beyond. I am also a queer Iranian-American mother of two crazy and wonderful kids. My pronouns are she/her.
