Success of Iranian chemistry scientists in crossing sanctions; Competition with American counterparts – | Iranian and world news

Dr. Peyman Salehi at the opening ceremony of the 30th Iranian Organic Chemistry Seminar hosted by the University of Science and Technology said: Iran’s scientific growth has been ranked 1, 2 and 2 for many years. And we should keep in mind that even a step up a step is very difficult.

He explained: Nearly one million scientific articles have been published in the Scopus database from the beginning, and we should keep in mind that our country, despite having one percent of the world’s population, produces two percent of the world’s production of science production. Possessed in possession.

Dr. Salehi, referring to the production statistics of scientific articles in the country, said: “2 % in year 2, year 2 % and 2 % of the total scientific articles produced in the country are based on basic science.”

He emphasized: The process of scientific production of the country has made good progress and competes with neighboring countries and in cases where hydrocarbon countries have invested in Iran’s neighborhood.

Dr. Salehi said: “If we are looking for a product, technology and knowledge economy, we must take investment in basic science seriously and fortunately with the actions taken, many companies operate in the chemical field and we have become a catalyst importer.”

The Ministry of Science, Research and Technology Research Vice President of Research said that the acquisition of indigenous technology was the investment in basic science and said: “Most policymakers think that the product can be marketed without basic knowledge, while we are chemical and hydrocarbon and should be in basic sciences. Invest.

“Our chemistry scientists have crossed the sanctions lines and were successful in producing scientific articles in the field of chemistry, and even competing with American and Chinese scientists, and our chemists in international cooperation over the past five years, the greatest relationship They had China with Turkey.

He explained the level of innovation maturity (TRL): TSR level. The L -means the product has reached the market and the level of the T. R. Low TRL, that is, we are in the process of producing ideas and tests and laboratory samples. T. R. El is one to three universities and T. R. We have to leave the L5 to 5 to the private sector.

Dr. Salehi said: Our universities now have 2,800 contracts with the industry and the volume of these contracts 1,2 Billion is a billion dollars.

According to the Ministry of Science’s research assistant, there are currently 4 science and technology parks across the country and in all provinces, with 4 people working and operating 6,000 knowledge -based companies across the country.
