The 2nd International Congress on Recent Advances in Medical Sciences held on October 24-26, 2011 by Dr. Alireza Yalda Foundation, located in Germany, and Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) came to an end by honoring 34 researchers in both basic and clinical medical sciences at the National Museum of the History of Medicine in the evening of October 27, 2011.
Dr. Moslem Bahadori, the head of TUMS Alumni Office, evaluated achievement of the objectives of the congress as excellent especially in fields of medical genetics and stem cells. He called the introduced research results as novel and the researchers among the best n the world and hoped the congress could continue in coming years.
Thanking the participation of renowned Iranian-born researchers who reside in Germany, Professor Bahadori said the University and the TUMS AO were prepared to develop cooperation with Iranian researchers there.
Professor Alireza Ranjbar, the president of the congress, said about 50 top national and international researchers had participated in the three-day event and its 6 workshops.
Professor Ranjbar added that in the course of the congress, more than 30 research papers had been presented in the field of basic and clinical medicine and molecular biology. He said the nominees had been in five different categories.
The awards were given to 34 top researchers by Professor Bagher Larijani, TUMS Chancellor, and Professor Alireza Yalda, the founder of modern infectious diseases in Iran who is famous for his ethical practice of medicine and has evaded private practice to fully serve the patients in teaching hospitals.
Professor Yalda who recently got his distinguished professorship from TUMS Chancellor and an award from the Minister of Health, said “Today we have gathered to respect the kind of professorship which gives equal importance to science and ethics while teaching the students and scientific meetings like this one are of importance as they help humans grow spiritually”.
He later emphasized on teaching of ethics to students to guarantee the health of the society. He said if medical students approach the field for monetary advantages they seemingly would benefit but they would not attain the true success.
Having got their awards from the Chancellor or Professor Yalda, most awardees briefly took the podium to express their ideas and feelings.
