About Us
The Institute of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology for Postgraduate Studies was established in 1999 at the University of Baghdad, to become the first and only one in Iraq specialized in this vital and rare field. The institute provides postgraduate programs including higher diploma, master’s and doctorate. The institute started with the master’s program in 2000, followed by the doctorate program in 2002, in addition to the higher diploma program in the same year. The institute aims to prepare scientific cadres that keep pace with the latest developments in the fields of genetic engineering and its applications in the fields of medicine, agriculture, and industry. It also focuses on advanced scientific research, which aims to provide innovative solutions to health, agricultural, and environmental challenges to achieve sustainable scientific and technological progress.
The institute includes two scientific branches and one research unit:
Department of Genetic Engineering, Department of Biotechnology, and Fingerprint Unit
About The Conference
The Aim of the Conference: To bring together scientists and academics to exchange experiences and research results in all essential elements of molecular and biological medicine. The conference also provides a platform to present and discuss the latest applications and developments, especially in the fields of diagnosis and treatment. in addition to the scientific challenges and scientific solutions adopted in specific periods of biomedicine and marine biology.

Instructions for Authors
Submissions to ICGEBI should be in a PDF format. Submissions will NOT be accepted by e-mail or any other mechanism other than (Microsoft CMT).
Templates
Manuscripts submitted to ICGEBI 2025 should be original, written in English, and in accordance with the standard Springer 1-column paper template (10-page technical content + 2-page references for regular papers and 4-page technical content + 2-page references for demo papers); Papers must be in trouble-free, high-resolution PDF format, formatted for US Letter (8.5″ x 11″) paper, using Type 1 or TrueType fonts. ICGEBI 2025 uses double-blind reviews for regular papers. Therefore, submissions are anonymous and must conform to the instructions for double-blind review. The authors must manually remove all author and affiliation information from their submission for review and may replace it with other information, such as paper number and keywords. Submissions may be an ethics statement if applicable; acknowledgements also should be omitted from papers submitted for review but may be included in these two additional pages for accepted papers.
Only PDF files are required at the time of submission for review; you will additionally need to submit paper source files if your paper is accepted for publication.
You can download the template for ICGEBI 2025 here: Word LaTex.
Citation and Comparison
Papers are expected to cite those refereed publications most relevant to their content, but authors are excused for not knowing about all non-refereed work (e.g., appearing on ArXiv). Nevertheless, in cases where such prior work is widely known in the field, its existence may be considered by reviewers when assessing a submission’s novelty.
Technical Appendix
The length of main submissions is strictly limited, as already described. Authors may optionally submit a technical appendix (PDF) containing additional supporting information such as proofs of theorems that are stated in the main paper, additional information needed to reproduce experiments, further experimental results, figures, and examples to illustrate technical claims, etc. The main submission may reference the supplementary material but should be self-contained. Reviewers will be instructed to make their acceptance evaluations based on the main submission and will not be obliged to consult the supplementary material. If proofs or other supplementary matters are an important part of the contribution, their essential elements should be included in the main paper.
AI Policy for ICGEBI 2025 Submissions
ICGEBI 2025 strictly adheres to an AI policy for conference submissions. Manuscripts submitted should contain at most 25% AI-generated content. This policy ensures the originality and integrity of the research presented. Submissions must be within this threshold to be accepted. We encourage authors to maintain high standards of scholarly work by relying primarily on their expertise and insights.
Reproducibility Guidelines
Authors must complete a reproducibility checklist at the time of paper submission. These responses will become part of each paper submission and will be shared with reviewers. Information related to reproducing experimental results described in the submission may be included in the main paper or the Code and Data Appendix, as appropriate. Further technical details (proofs, descriptions of assumptions, algorithm pseudocode) may be included in the Technical Appendix. When applicable, authors are encouraged to include detailed information about each reproducibility criterion as part of their Technical Appendix. Reviewers will be asked to assess the degree to which the results reported in a paper are reproducible, and this assessment will be weighed when making final decisions about each paper.
Ethics Policy
All ICGEBI 2025 authors and reviewers are required to honor the Springer Publications Ethics and Malpractice Statement, as well as the Springer Code of Professional Conduct.
Conference Registration and Attendance
For each submitted paper, at least one author is required to register for the conference and to present the paper. Details about the conference attendance will be posted on the ICGEBI 2025 website:
