Royan International Twin Congress

Following ten successful Royan International Congresses, the 11^th congress will be held on September 15-17, 2010 in Tehran, Iran. During the past congresses we observed participation of thousands of specialists, scientists, researchers and students from all around the world gathered in a friendly atmosphere to exchange their knowledge and experience. Their warm encouragements plus brilliant comments and suggestions led us to increase in scientific level and better organization of the congress. Although the congress is named Royan, it belongs to all scientists and doctors from all around the world who are working in the fields of reproduction and stem cells, especially Iranian scientists and prominent professors from various universities, research centers and clinics who are mostly pioneers in these fields, and without their support we could not hold it properly.

Considering all the above said experiences for past one decade, I believe in better upcoming congress with higher scientific level.

Iran is an ancient country full of unique historical monuments and astonishing natural landscapes. International guests have the opportunity to get familiar with this ancient culture along with their scientific work. There will be an interesting social program in this regard.

I must also thank my colleagues in Royan Institute for their great effort especially Dr. Nasser Aghdami, with his science and knowledge and great experiences for accepting to chair this congress, and welcome you all in advance to this high level scientific event.

Congress President

Dear Friends and Colleagues;

On behalf of the organizing committee of Royan International Twin Congress, 11th Congress on Reproductive Biomedicine and 6th Congress on Stem Cell Biology & Technology, I would like to invite you to join us and attend this prominent event which will be held on September 15-17, 2010 in Tehran, Iran.

RITC-2010 will be held in conjunction with closing ceremony of the 11^th Royan International Research Award, which contains five prizes for five best research projects in the field of Reproductive Biomedicine and Stem Cell Biology and Technology.

For the first time in 1999, when we had achieved the success of 1000 ART baby births, we decided to share this great experience with scientists and doctors from all around the world, and we held the first Royan International Research Award and Congress on Reproductive Biomedicine.

By September 2010, the time of 11^th Royan International Congress, we will be reaching to the experience of more than 10,000 baby births resulting from the efforts of ART professionals and ART lab experts of the Royan Institute, and there would be too much to exchange with you throughout the scientific sessions of the congress.

Regenerative medicine and stem cells are of new hot scientific subjects which provide so many promising options for the future treatment of some major diseases such as cancers, nervous diseases, damaged organs and degenerative diseases.

In recent years the field of stem cell has witnessed enormous expansion in clinical and basic data. However the basic research is of vital interest to everybody working in this field and brings together scientists from all segments of basic and biomedical research and from various clinical disciplines, even if clinical applications to be developed finally require highly specialized knowledge and techniques.

Since 2006, we have been holding the Stem Cell Biology and Technology congress alongside the Reproductive Biomedicine part as a twin congress.

The scientific program of this twin congress will focus on breaking scientific developments and current issues from foremost opinion leaders. Each keynote speaker has been asked to not only review his/her particular area of expertise but also look ahead at possibilities for the next years.

The executive committee has also arranged social programs and pre/post congress tours to some historical cities of Iran like Isfahan, Shiraz, Kashan… for foreign guests to visit the cultural heritage and enormous tourism resources of our ancient country, Iran.

Hereby, I present my thanks to the participants of this conference, professors, young scientists and students! It is due to your keen interest that these fields are expanding and exploring new frontiers. We sincerely hope that each and every one of you has a wonderful time in Iran.

The organizers of Royan International Twin Congress are eagerly waiting to welcome you to this exciting extravaganza of knowledge and pleasure.

Best regards,

Naser Aghdami M.D/PhD

Congress Chairman
