MEDICAL R&D IN QATAR Currently, there is lots of investment in research and development, through organizations such as the Qatar Foundation. There are also funds to attract researchers to come to Qatar with financing for existing research and development projects that occur in several places around the world. This is not yet up to speed but the growth of projects and breakthroughs year by year is quite high.

If we compare it to international standards and to what Qatar wants to achieve, there are still a lot of efforts that have to be made.
