Sajjad Bayat Turk, Executive Secretary

With pride and pleasure, we celebrate the 15th National Congress of Orthotics and Prosthetics of Iran as one of the most important scientific and specialized gatherings in this field in the country. This congress is an opportunity for experts, professors, researchers and students to brainstorm and share the latest scientific, technological and clinical achievements in the field of orthotics and prosthetics.
Today, the field of orthotics and prosthetics is facing technological and scientific developments more than ever before. Significant advances in digital technologies, 3D printing, CAD/CAM scanning and modeling, as well as new approaches to rehabilitation, have opened new horizons for us. But alongside these advances, preserving the effective design and manufacturing methods of the past and our human mission still remain: improving the quality of life of patients and restoring mobility and human dignity to people in need.
This congress is the result of the collective efforts of valuable colleagues in the scientific and executive committees, as well as the support of academic and professional institutions in the country. Without a doubt, your active presence, dear colleagues, the exchange of experiences, and the presentation of new research will breathe new life into the body of science and practice in this field.
It is hoped that this event will pave the way for synergy, the development of interdisciplinary collaborations, and the improvement of clinical and educational standards in the country, and will help us move towards more effective, scientific, and human-centered services.
I would like to sincerely thank all the professors, researchers, students, and esteemed colleagues who have added to the scientific richness of this congress with their enthusiastic presence.
