In the last months of 2006, Iranian biotechnologists announced that they,
as the third manufacturer in the world, have sent
CinnoVex (a recombinant type of
Interferon b1a) to the market.
[82] According to a study by David Morrison and Ali Khademhosseini (Harvard-MIT and Cambridge),
stem cell research in
Iran is amongst the top 10 in the world.
[83] Iran will invest 2.5 billion dollars in the country's stem cell research over the next five years (2008–2013).
[84] Iran ranks 2nd in world in transplantation of stem cells.

In 2010, Iran begun mass-producing ocular
bio-implants named SAMT.
[86] Iran began investing in biotechnological projects in 1992 and this is the tenth facility in Iran. 'Lifepatch' is the fourth bio-implant mass-produced by Iran after bone, heart valve, and tendon bio-implants.
[86] 12 countries in the world produce bio-tech drugs, which Iran is one of them.

The legacy of
Alhazen, who was highly instrumental in the founding of
modern optics was continued by
Ali Javan, who invented the

is this regional u dummy ? :
SJR - International Science Ranking
and abt cuba , let me get this straight , although their science output is not so intimidating , they are most probably stronger than US in vaccine production .
this is a known fact in my field of study , ask any doctors here .
