Massood Ezzatabadipour is a full-time Professor at Kerman University of Medical Sciences, Afzalipour School of Medicine, Anatomical Sciences Department, Kerman city and Kerman province, Iran and has been the head of the department for 9 years. In addition, he represents a research agreement between the Kerman University of Medical Sciences and the University of L Aquila, Italy.

Massood holds a Bachelor of Nursing (1988) at Mashad University of Medical Sciences, Master of Anatomical Sciences (1994) at Mashad University of Medical Sciences and Philosophy of Doctor (2000) at Beheshti University of Medical Sciences.

Massood gained valuable experience whilst working with Professor Emei Sato at Tohoku University, Animal Reproductive Department, Sendai, Japan during two sabbatical leaves (2000 & 2008), which were very useful.

Massood has long experience in teaching the musculoskeletal system to medical and physiotherapy students. Vitrification, Embryology, Anthropology and Anthropometry, Surface Anatomy, Clinical and Surgical Anatomy are among his study interests. Other research interests include ovarian research and menopause. Massood has supervised the thesis of eleven postgraduate students so far.

His best hobbies are traveling, music, and soccer. He has traveled extensively to countries in Europe and Asia.
