About Amir
Professor Amir Hadjinoormohammadi is a Professor in Avian Medicine in the Faculty of Veterinary and Agricultural Sciences at the University of Melbourne. He heads the Avian Medicine group, the Veterinary Anatomic Pathology division, and serves as Deputy Director of the Asia Pacific Centre for Animal Health within the Melbourne Veterinary School. A registered veterinarian in Australia with 35 years of experience focused on poultry diseases, he obtained his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree from Tehran University in 1990 and completed his PhD at the University of Melbourne in 1997, investigating the molecular pathogenesis of avian mycoplasmosis. Over the course of his career, he has taught avian diseases to veterinary students for more than 25 years and supervised several PhD students. He is a member of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists in the poultry health stream since 2002 and serves on the editorial board of Avian Pathology journal.
His research centers on the pathogenesis, molecular diagnosis, epidemiology, and vaccine development for major avian pathogens, including Mycoplasma gallisepticum, Mycoplasma synoviae, Chlamydia species, fowl adenoviruses, infectious bronchitis virus, infectious laryngotracheitis virus, avian nephritis virus, and Salmonella species. Professor Hadjinoormohammadi has authored over 150 peer-reviewed scientific articles and contributed chapters to key references such as Diseases of Poultry, the MSD Veterinary Manual, and the WOAH Manual of Diagnostic Tests and Vaccines for Terrestrial Animals. Selected publications include 'Australian strains of the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus predominantly target the respiratory tract rather than the kidneys in specific-pathogen-free chickens' (2026, Journal of General Virology), 'A field-ready colourimetric LAMP assay for detection of Mycoplasma gallisepticum using rapid DNA extraction' (2026, Research in Veterinary Science), 'Assessment of tracheal mucosal thicknesses is a preferable method for evaluation of the immunogenicity of Mycoplasma gallisepticum vaccines in poultry' (2026, Vaccine), and 'Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase facilitates Mycoplasma synoviae colonisation in the lower respiratory system' (2025, Veterinary Microbiology). His contributions have significantly influenced strategies for disease control in commercial and free-range poultry production. Awards include the RIRDC Business Plan Competition Award (2000), WVPA award (2006), and a University of Melbourne honour (2024).
