Abstract

Iraq, a country with a rich history and culture, has been plagued by numerous challenges that have hindered the growth and development of its medical and scientific research community. Despite the many obstacles facing the country, there are dedicated healthcare professionals and researchers who are working tirelessly to advance medical knowledge and improve healthcare outcomes in Iraq [1].

Medical scientific research in Iraq faces a critical predicament with inadequate funding and resources [2]. Due to the limited government budget for medical research, there is an insufficient amount of support for research projects and facilities. The shortage of resources has led to a massive talent depletion, with numerous skilled medical researchers and professionals departing the country for better opportunities [3].
