TUMSPR News: In a televised interview, TUMS Chancellor, Dr. Bagher Larijani, pointed out that achieving the intelligent navigation system is of more importance than the machine itself on June 9, 2011.
Upon the unveilment of an intelligent navigation system for head and neck surgeries at Imam Khomini Hospital Complex, the Chancellor for Tehran University of medical Sciences (TUMS) participated in a televised interview with two other TUMS faculty members, Dr. Sarkar, the head of TUMS Research Center for Science and Technology in Medicine (RCSTIM) and Dr. Sadr-hosseini, the clinical ENT surgeon of the project in the evening of June 9, 2011. The head of the project, Dr. Ahmadian accompanied the rest via a telephone interview.
In the interview the Chancellor said one of the important issues in science development was technology and the University had had the opportunity to follow technology cycles parallel to research in the last ten years and exemplified the establishment of four technology incubator centers in the University while not forgetting to work on technology parks which would later shift to knowledge cities where we could manufacture the achieved technologies.
On the advantages of the technology incubation centers, the Chancellor said the inventors were working side by side the clinical surgeons and developed the machines mutually to meet the patients’ needs and this would tie science with technology. “Therefore, attaining the technology to produce such high-tech systems is more important than the machines themselves”, said the Chancellor.
