They will also help students get jobs and internships, offer workshops, and organize science conferences to share research.

The partnership also aims to turn the research done in these labs into real-life products by working with big companies in the health industry. This will help grow Abu Dhabi's economy and improve healthcare.

Dr. Asma Ibrahim Al Mannaei, Executive Director at DoH, said that research is key to creating better healthcare. This partnership will help find new ways to treat people and care for communities. It also helps Abu Dhabi lead the world in healthcare innovation.
