The Computational Sciences and Molecular Simulation (CSMS) Centre at the University of Warith Al-Anbiyaa has played a central role in nurturing a new wave of scientific talent in Iraq. Through a series of hands-on training workshops held over the past two years, the centre has introduced students, young researchers, and academics to modern tools in computational chemistry and simulation-based science. These workshops filled a long-standing gap in scientific training, particularly in areas where access to traditional laboratory resources is limited.

Alongside these efforts, CSMS has secured meaningful partnerships with universities and research groups abroad. Letters of collaboration have been exchanged to support staff development, knowledge sharing, and joint research projects. These partnerships are helping to place Iraq’s researchers on the global scientific map, creating long-term pathways for innovation and cooperation.

Photos included in this submission highlight the enthusiasm and engagement of workshop participants, reflecting a growing appetite for digital science in the region. Together, these training activities and international collaborations demonstrate a serious and practical commitment to scientific development — one that’s already beginning to make a lasting impact.
