In the early-mid 1990s, he founded the Iranian Society for the Study of Esophageal Cancer (ISSEC) and conducted a few studies on esophageal cancer targeting one of the highest incidence cancers in the World in northeast Iran.[17][18]
Farrokh Saidi is currently a professor of Surgery Emeritus at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences and practices general and thoracic surgery at Iran-Mehr Hospital in Tehran.[19]
Views
In November 1992, Farrokh Saidi, together with some 1,700 world's leading scientists, including the majority of Nobel laureates in the sciences, issued an appeal and warned that human activities inflict harsh and often irreversible damage on the environment and on critical resources and suggested a great change in our stewardship of the earth and the life on it, is required. This appeal was written and spearheaded by Henry Way Kendall, former Chair of Union of Concerned Scientists.[20]
In a correspondence to the Nature (journal) in December 2009, he was among thirteen prominent Iranian academicians who deplored the cases of alleged plagiarism by Iranian scientists. The authors believed Iranian culture places an excessive emphasis on the value of academic credentials, both for advancement in official professions and in social standing and especially, Iran's political class has an unusual affinity for possessing academic distinctions and this accounts for a disproportionate share of academic fraud in this group.[21]
