INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Persian Gulf island of Kish.Royan Institute in cooperation with Kish Free Zone Organization, domestic and international universities,
scientific centers as well as knowledge-based companies will organize the event which aims to lay the ground for joint scientific research
the latest scientific achievements in the globe, particularly in the WANA countries.The themes of the two-day event include organoids and
disease modeling, novel approaches in cancer treatment, bioengineering in regenerative biomedicine, cell therapy and gene therapy in
regenerative biomedicine, artificial intelligence, and computational biology in regenerative biomedicine.It also aims to expand the science
communication network among students, professors, and researchers in WANA countries
The congress will be held in person for national attendees
northwestern West Azarbaijan province, from May 16 to 17, 2024.It mainly focused on Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) Outcomes at the
global level focusing on the WANA countries.Moreover, it served as a platform for boosting synergy among scientific and commercial
professionals in infertility treatment, as well as an opportunity for the presence of domestic and foreign knowledge-based companies
involved in the production of medicines.The congress featured presentations and discussions by 30 noted Iranian, and 10 foreign lecturers on
the consequences of Infertility treatment and its related challenges.The themes included monitoring the children born as a result of
infertility treatment, ethical and legal issues, the role of imaging, the impact of environmental factors and lifestyle, enhancing the
outcome of assisted infertility: challenges, management and options, preserving fertility in patients suffering from cancer, and the role of
surgery in improving assisted reproductive outcome technology.Establishing the WANA Scientific NetworkThe main objectives of establishing
this scientific association include:- Facilitating the exchange of scientific knowledge by building connections with research institutions,
scientists, and centers in the WANA region globally.- Identifying opportunities for collaboration within the region and expanding
communication networks.- Enhancing networking among knowledge-based companies in the WANA region to boost interactions and trade of
scientific products.- Offering a comprehensive range of knowledge-based services (total solution), such as training, expert consulting, and
project implementation in biotechnology, to countries seeking assistance from knowledge-based companies.Royan Institute for Stem Cell
Biology, TechnologyRoyan Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Technology (RI-SCBT), formerly known as the Department of Stem Cells, was first
established in 2002 to promote research on general stem cell biology in Iran.Thereafter, the Department of Stem Cells was promoted to the
Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Technology which included three departments with multiple research groups that conduct studies on stem
cells and developmental biology, regenerative medicine, personalized medicine, cancer medicine, biomedical engineering, and the brain and
cognitive sciences.Currently, the institute departments are Department of Stem cells and Developmental Biology; Department of Cell
Engineering; and Department of Regenerative Medicine.The mission of RI-SCBT is to generate insights into the biology of stem cells through
