Dr. Mostafa Saeed is a researcher specializing in postharvest physiology and molecular biology of fruits. From 2010 to 2014, he studied at the Pomology Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Alexandria University, Egypt, where he obtained a bachelor's and master’s degree in Agricultural Science. After graduation, he worked at the Pomology Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Alexandria University, Egypt, as a teaching assistant from 2015 to 2018. He was promoted to Assistant Lecturer in 2019 and continues to serve in this position at the same department. In 2020, he began a PhD study program in the Department of Fruit Science, College of Agriculture and Biotechnology, Zhejiang University, China. By 2025, he obtained his PhD degree from Zhejiang University, China. His research integrates multi-omics approaches (genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics) with physiochemical analysis to investigate: (1) molecular regulation of fruit ripening (particularly ethylene biosynthesis and cell wall modification), (2) genetic and environmental factors affecting postharvest quality, (3) development of sustainable postharvest management strategies. His secondary research interests include food sensory evaluation and flavor biochemistry. Through his work, he aims to bridge the gap between fundamental research and practical applications, reducing postharvest losses and improving fruit quality.
