Nasser Nafari was an Iranian visiting professor at the Physics department at Knox during 2003 - 2005. Then Professor Mark Shroyer came and filled in the position Nafari left. Nafari's research interests are dynamical mean field theory and density functional theory. Towards the end of his stay at Knox, Nafari mentioned to several students that he would be heading back to teach in Iran, but nobody really knows where he is now. According to online sources, Nafari is now a Resident Researcher in School of Physics at Institute for Studies in Theoretical Physics and Mathematics (IPM) in Iran, where he also held a Senior Associate Researcher position from 1993 to 1995. He is also a professor at Sharif University of Technology, and holds some kind of position in Atomic Energy Organization of Iran(AEOI).
