Medical Genetics Research Center was adopted in 2008, chaired by Dr. Abbasszadegan, Mohammad Reza in Mashhad University of Medical Sciences and so far has been the host of numerous research projects. The goals of the Center, performing fundamental and applied research in the field of population polymorphisms and genetic diseases in order to improve the quality of health care services to patients and society

• Carry out fundamental and applied research in the field of population polymorphisms and genetic diseases in order to improve the quality of health care services to patients and society
• Create a database collection, arrangement, and classification of records, documents, articles, and resources
• Create a database of genetic and biological Patients (DNA, RNA, and serum) with clinical characteristics of individual patients

• Training Manpower for research
  
• Being targeted research activities by encouraging colleagues and researchers
• Establish appropriate relationships with research centers in the country and abroad
• Production and increasing knowledge of genetics and medical genetics based on the needs of patients with genetic diseases
• Training and mentoring graduate students (Masters, Ph.D., general medicine and specialized flow) in order to conduct thesis research
• As our understanding of the genetic structure of genetic polymorphisms and disease mutations to improve the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment
• Using the latest technology available to investigate the genetic genome in the Iranian population (according to the needs of society and advances in recent decades in the human genome)
• Efforts to localize the leading technologies such as genetic manipulation, a step toward identifying the mechanism of diseases and their treatment
