"Iran ranks 8th in the world in mastering the technology of stem cell cultivation," said Head of Jihad University of Qom Province Mohammad Ebrahim Faqihzadeh.

Iranian researchers have gained astonishing success in studying and implanting stem cells in the last decade.

Scientists at the stem cell department of Iran's Royan Research Center successfully produced a mouse using embryonic stem cells.

The mouse was created by injecting the embryonic stem cells of a black mouse into a white mouse's blastosists.

The resulted embryos were then transferred to another mouse's uterine and finally a chimera mouse was born, he continued.

In 2006, Royan Research Center scientists successfully cloned the country's first lamb, Royana.
