While at UCSF, he performed extensive genetic research and published papers on many of his findings, including work regarding Byler syndrome,[5] intrahepatic cholestasis,[6] and bipolar disorder[7] His work remains well-cited.[8] His graduate dissertation explored the genetic basis for perfect pitch and was based on a study of 500 musicians. Baharloo's work found evidence that the some of the ability to instantly recognize musical notes is inherited.[9]
Baharloo is the holder or co-holder of several patents related to the intersection of scientific protocols and commerce.[10]
