Minister: Iran's Int'l Science Production Ranking Improves "The Islamic Republic of Iran has improved its ranking to 17 in 2013 from 20 in 2012 in the scale of Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) and to 15 in 2013 from 17 in 2012 in the Scopus scale," Daneshjou said on Saturday.

He noted that reference to scientific journal articles written by Iranian scientists has increased in recent years which shows the quality of these articles.

Last year, an Iranian official announced that Iran stands 14th in the world ranking of biotechnological advancements.

"Iran has attained desirable capabilities in the field of biotechnology in recent years and has ranked 14 among the 46 world states which are active in this arena," Head of the Presidential Office's Technological and Innovations Cooperation Center Hamidreza Amirinia said in Tehran in December.

"Today the development of biotechnology has increased the level of social welfare, developed the exports market and created health tourism infrastructures in the country," he added.

Iran has taken wide strides in science and technology, particularly in medical and medicinal fields, in recent years.

In relevant remarks in December, Iranian Health Minister Marziyeh Vahid-Dastjerdi praised the country's astonishing progress in different medical and scientific fields, and said Iran enjoys the most credited health network in the world.

"Today, we enjoy the world's most credited health network and the best medical sciences' training system in Iran with 50 universities of medical sciences," she said in a meeting with her Eritrean counterpart Amina Nurhussein in Tehran at the time.

"Our country with its 75-million-strong population possesses a powerful health and treatment system that we have developed and achieved after the (Islamic) Revolution (in 1979)," the minister added.
