Headed by Minister of Science, Research and Technology Mansour Gholami, the delegation is comprised of top officials including Salar Amoli, the Acting Minister for International Scientific cooperation, and a number of university chancellors.
The European Commissioners of Science and Technology will also take part in the meeting, with a focus on the exchange of lecturers and students, and undertaking joint venture research projects.
