According to Mehr news agency, citing the Islamic World Science and Technology Citation and Monitoring Institute (ISC), Mohammad Mahdi Alavian Mehr, the head of the ISC Institute, said: Bioengineering is one of the most attractive and progressive scientific fields today, which, by combining the principles of engineering and biological sciences, deals with the design and development of new technologies to solve medical, agricultural and environmental challenges. As an interdisciplinary field, this field uses engineering tools such as computer modeling, mechanical design, and materials science to analyze, control, or simulate living systems.
He stated: Genetic and molecular technologies, as key sub-branches of bioengineering, play a central role in the progress of this field. These technologies have created a revolution in fields such as gene therapy, the production of transgenic products, and the synthesis of biofuels. According to the mentioned materials, the investigation and analysis of the scientific position in genetic and molecular technologies in the prestigious global rankings is very important.
