Maziar was born in [[Tehran]], Iran (September 1966). Before completing his PhD in [[Cambridge]], he first qualified as a Medical Doctor from Tehran University of Medical Sciences (1984–1991) and worked as a Medical Practitioner in Iran. After completing a postgraduate course in Forensic Medicine at the [[Iranian Legal Medical Organization]] (1992), he worked as the head of [[Hormozgan Province]] Legal Medical Centre (Iran) for four years (1992–1996). As well as dealing with many different forensic cases and having done more than 400 autopsies, he taught [[forensic medicine]] and [[medical anthropology]] to the undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes within the Bandar-Abbas University of Medical Sciences and Bandar-Abbas [[Islamic Azad University]].

He has published various books and papers on his research.
In his current research, he is using genetic tools to investigate the maternal and paternal history of the Iranian ethnic groups and also the emergence of the first farmers in the Iranian Plateau (eastern parts of the [[Fertile Crescent]]) and the origin of Aryans ([[Indo-Iranians]]) and [[Indo-Aryans|Indo-Aryan]] race theory. His research also included the following:
*'' Understanding of how the genetic variants contribute to disease.''
*'' Development of new methods to address questions regarding genetic disorders, in particular,particularly various cancers.''
*'' Investigation of the genetic variations in the connexin genes that lead to various human disorders, such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, congenital disorders and secondary lymphedema.''
*'' Identifying genes predisposing humans to cancer or contributing to cancer growth through somatic changes.''
