The team

A small, interdisciplinary project group.

Leadership, software, and electronics — with welfare validation reviewed by a planned external advisor. We present real roles, not decorative names.

FZ

Fereshteh Zavvari

Project Lead — Human-Centered Systems Design, Deployment & Research Coordination

Leads coordination, systems design, and deployment strategy. An architecture and urban-design background brings systems-level thinking to how the tools work in real farms, processing spaces, vessels, and low-resource settings — workflow mapping, operator-centered design, training material, documentation, and coordination of the research-discovery phase. Species-specific welfare validation is reviewed with an external advisor.

MA

Mohsen Seyedkazemi Ardebili

Software & Cloud Systems Lead

Builds the digital foundation: data collection, risk-scoring logic, dashboards, reporting, and automation. Designs the layer that turns sensor data, timing, and observations into simple, fail-safe, explainable outputs — acceptable, uncertain, or intervention required — ready for future edge/cloud integration.

MP

Mahyar Pourjabar

Electronics & Embedded Systems Lead

Leads the hardware layer: sensor selection, low-cost prototyping, camera and edge-device feasibility, data acquisition, and device–software integration. Keeps the project practical, affordable, and buildable — from concept to deployable prototype.

Fish Welfare / Aquaculture Advisor

External advisor — to be added (Phase 1)

A welfare, veterinary, aquaculture, or seafood-processing advisor will review welfare indicators, validate assumptions, identify relevant species and use cases, and keep the project scientifically grounded. StunAssure does not claim software alone can determine consciousness — verification happens in collaboration with domain experts.

Advisory collaboration

We are actively seeking a welfare advisor.

We plan to involve fish welfare, aquaculture, veterinary, or seafood-processing advisors during the first phase to review assumptions, validate indicators, and help define responsible use cases. Even a short "interested in advising if funded" conversation strengthens the project.
