Biography

Syed Ziaur Rahman's father Hakim Syed Zillur Rahman, grandfather Hakim Syed Fazlur Rahman and great grandfather Hakim Syed Karam Husain were all physicians of Unani medicine.

He earned his matriculation in 1987 from Minto Circle, graduation (MBBS) in 1995 and postgraduation (MD) in 2000 from Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, a part of Aligarh Muslim University, India. His PhD thesis was a part of the project on health, medications and lifestyle factors in relation to self-rated memory from UWS School of Medicine, University of Western Sydney, Australia.[2]

He has been on the board of various academic bodies such as Advisory Council Section 1 (Medical Education) of International Association of Medical Colleges, Mahatma Gandhi DorenKamp Center for Alternatives to the use of Animals in Life-science Education[3][4] and also on editorial board panel of many academic journals such as 'Natural Product Radiance' (now, Indian Journal of Natural Products and Resources) of NISCAIR[5] 'Clinical Researcher',[6]'Newsletter of Ibn Sina Academy' and 'Journal of Pharmacovigilance & Drug Safety'.

He served as Secretary Hobbies (1992–1994), Chief Editor (1996–1997), Club Secretary (1997–2000) and President (2007–2009) of the Non-Resident Students' Centre.

Contribution in medical science

Rahman's contributed in the area of Alternatives to animal testing. He believes in the philosophy of 'Three R" of Russell and Burch".[7] He gave series of lectures during 2004 at "Alternatives, Animal Welfare and the Curriculum – A training Seminar and Workshop" in different cities of India.[8] He addressed in the meetings of International Network for Humane Education (InterNICHE) and International Centre for Alternatives in Research and Education (I-CARE). On the recommendation of Medical Council of India (MCI), and after getting survey related to the attitude of undergraduate medical students towards Alternatives to animal testing and Animal experiments, he initiated a separate lab on "Alternatives to Animal Experimentation" in the Department of Pharmacology at Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College. This is a first attempt in any medical college of India to have an exclusive lab where experimental work on animals is demonstrated by Computer aided education. In addition, he edited "A guide to alternatives to animal experiment in pharmacology", which is included in the curriculum of second professional MBBS course.[9] He even translated few papers into Urdu in the field of Alternatives to animal testing.[10][11]

Rahman also works in the field of Traditional medicine with special reference to Unani medicine.[12][13][14][15][16][17][18] While working on morphine de-addiction properties of medicinal plants, he proposed a modified method for moderately and severely induced morphine dependent rats.[19][20][21][22][23][24] He specifically screened Delphinium denudatum for its protective activity in morphine induced physical dependence.[25]

His other field of works is Pharmacovigilance[26][27][28][29][30] and Pharmacoepidemiology.[31][32] In the field of Pharmacovigilance, he gave the concept of Pharmacoenvironmentology[33][34][35][36][37] and differentiated the term Ecopharmacology from Pharmacoenvironmentology.[38] However, some scientists also suggest the term, 'EcoPharmacovigilance'[39] and 'PharmEcovigilance'[40] in place of Pharmacoenvironmentology. He started as editor-in-chief, the official journal of the Society of Pharmacovigilance, India (SoPI) in 2003 – "Journal of Pharmacovigilance & Drug Safety (ISSN 0972–8899)"
