Research groups are considered one of the most important factors in advancing the process of scientific research in research institutions and the most successful in terms of transferring expertise to their organizers, because group research work is often of higher quality and more beneficial than individual work. In addition to the fact that it constitutes a research reference point in any institution, thus contributing to solving many pressing issues while creating an interactive climate among researchers and strengthening ties between them, in addition to building qualified research human cadres to carry out their duties.
