Dr. Sitthichai Iamsaard is currently an associate professor in the Department of Anatomy, Khon Kaen University, Thailand. He received his BSc degree in animal production technology and PhD degree in anatomy and structural biology at Mahidol University, Thailand. He also received training from Dr. Nongnuj Tanphaichitr, Ottawa Hospital Research Institute as an exchange PhD student for 3.5 years and had a number of publications on the roles of sperm surface enzymes, including PCSK4, in fertilization. His current research activities are twofold. The first is the Routine to Research (R2R), in which his research on human musculoskeletal variations and physical anthropology emerges from his routine teaching duty on gross anatomy. Dr. Iamsaard’s second research aspect is basic science studies on reproductive biomedicine and toxicology. He has described structural and biochemical changes of male reproductive organs in the animal models of DM type 2, chronic stress, and alcoholism as well as animals administered with cancer drugs such as valproic acid (VPA) and ketoconazole. In addition, Dr. Iamsaard is trying to use herbal/traditional medicine in reproductive health intervention. His research is highlighted by the cover photo on his VPA work in a Reproduction, Fertility and Development issue (2017) and his publication on the changes of tyrosine phosphorylated proteins in DM testis being selected as the best paper in International Journal of Reproductive Medicine (2018-2020).
