The National Research Centre is an Egyptian research and development center for multiple disciplines including agriculture, chemistry, biology, medicine, engineering and genetics.[1] It was established in 1956 "to foster basic and applied scientific research, particularly in industry, agriculture, public health and other sectors of national economy". The NRC is the largest institution affiliated with the ministry of Scientific Research.[2] As of April 2024 it had a research staff of more than 4700 scientists and is headed by a president, with two vice presidents for research and technical affairs.[3][4]
