According to the Communication and Information Center in the Vice Presidency of Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy, Ruhollah Dehghani visited the achievements and various departments of the Biomedical Research Institute of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in the University of Tehran, referring to the strategic role of university specialists and professors in reaching research ideas and plans to the market and the economy in the field of technology stated: Technological advances are more due to structures and buildings, they are owed to specialized and motivated and persistent human resources, and wherever interested and motivated people are present, important and effective events will be realized. University professors, especially those who have the ability to bring together several students, can well create start-up knowledge-based companies.

He stated that professor-centered cores can play a role in the creation of new knowledge-based companies and take advantage of the capacities created by the law of leapfrogging knowledge-based production. They are supported for a period of five years to reach sufficient growth and maturity.

Dehghani continued: During these five years, in addition to the usual support, full use of the capacities of the laboratory network of strategic technologies will be granted to them in the form of credits or grants. Also, based on the evaluation and support system for knowledge-based companies, in the first five years of their activity, new knowledge-based companies are given full tax exemptions and insurance for up to five personnel, and this kind of support helps to reduce the concerns of researchers for product development or the fruition of technological activity.

Referring to the definition of a joint cooperation agreement between the Vice Presidency of Science and the Biomedical Research Institute, the head of the National Elites Foundation said: In the form of the exhibition of laboratory equipment made in Iran and the national program of the National Laboratory, a comprehensive package will be defined to define specific and technological projects centered on the research institute.

Referring to the support of research grants, Dehghani said: "Many professors can meet their research needs with a little support, and limited resources may not allow the establishment of laboratories, but by allocating a specific mechanism in the form of credit allocation for the use of laboratory infrastructure, the necessary ground for the advancement of research should be provided to them.

The future of medicine and the field of animal studies

Mohammad Reza Mokhber Dezfouli, head of the Biomedical Research Institute, referring to the actions taken in the Biomedical Research Institute, said: Many steps forward and advances in the field of human medicine are due to the processes in the field of veterinary medicine, and the processes of organ transplantation and the experiences gained in this field can be realized by the development of medical research. The field of biomedicine also plays a serious role in vaccines, clinical processes, modeling and human medical research.

Emphasizing that the future of medicine belongs to the field of biomedicine and in the future the border between different fields of medicine will be blurred, he continued: In this research institute, there are four active groups producing biological products including stem cells and regenerative medicine, animal studies and ethics. and biological rights.

Mokhber Dezfouli added: The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in this part of the city is a very good location for the development of knowledge-based technology and economy in this area, which can be provided with a proper and accurate planning to create value.

Visiting the biomedical research institute

Vice President of Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy, while visiting the laboratories of the Biomedical Research Institute, visited the building under construction of the Biomedical Technologies Tower. This building is under construction in 2,400 square meters with 16,000 square meters under the building and 12 floors, of which three floors are planned for the establishment of knowledge-based companies.

It should be noted that the Biomedical Research Institute was created with the aim of implementing basic research and projects in the field of biomedicine and applied studies in animal models in various fields of medicine and veterinary medicine. This research institute implements various research programs by using the knowledge and experience of prominent professors of Tehran University and cooperating with other research and academic centers of the country.
