The essence of 'Azr' springs forth from its Arabic roots, where أزر embodies strength and the pivotal support needed to ascend to great heights.

It is the first initiatives of the Scientists Unit at the Central Research Laboratory, which aims to enhance research skills and train those interested at the hands of experts and scientists with research experience and specialization in various sciences from university faculty.

The theoretical part will be presented by a number of distinguished speakers, while the practical application will be under the supervision of an elite group of researchers who have a research project ready for implementation, in which those interested in scientific research will be trained on the principles of solid scientific research, study designs and methods, and writing a publishable manuscripts.

The theoretical part is presented at the beginning of each week for 5-6 hours in the form of scientific lectures on the basics of scientific research, types of scientific studies, reliable methodologies, statistical analysis, and writing the discussion of the scientific paper. The rest of the days of the week are a practical application of what was presented previously in the week until the submission of the initial version of the scientific paper, provided that the plagiarism rate does not exceed 25%.
