Scientific chairs are known all over the world and the most known one is the Lucasian's Chair of mathematics that was deeded in December 1663 at Cambridge University as a result of a gift from Henry Lucas. The chair was occupied by more than 17 well known scientist such as Sir Isaac Newton who is the most known in the history of science and the current holder is Stephen Hawking.
The USA is considered a pioneer in the number of academic chairs as it counts in thousands, Canada has more than 2000 chairs, South Africa hold more than 200 and in Saudi Arabia by the end of 2007 there were around 50 chairs. Some of those are Arabian funded chairs at an International university such as King Abdul Aziz Chair at California University, King Fahd's Chair at London University, Prince Naif's Chair at Mosco University, Prince Waleed Bin Talal's Chair at Harvard University, Sultan Qaboo Chair at Cambridge University and Mohammed Saeed Farsi's Chair at The American

Vision
Men who are currently suffering from prostatic diseases will be better diagnosed and more effectively treated through the conduct of clinical and laboratory research projects that will enrich the science of medicine, explore new horizons in the understanding and treatment of prostatic diseases.
Mission
To utilize our available intellectual and laboratory scientific capabilities to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic services in the field of prostate health based on solid information that are derived from high quality research work of international standards
Objectives
- Conduct a clinical study in the western region of Saudi Arabia on patients with prostatic diseases and inter-related disorders such as chronic prostatitis and erectile dysfunction in order to identify the clinical characteristics of those patients.
- Conduct a microbiological diagnostic study on an adequate number of patients with prostatic diseases to identify a wide spectrum of the infective agents that cause the infections.
- Study the exact ability of the bacterial cell to adhere to the prostatic cell in the first step of the bacterial infection. A search for non-antibiotic blocking agent to block this step will be sought.
- Conduct an experimental study to assess the role of anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-proliferative activities of some natural product remedies in experimentally-induced prostatic enlargement in rats.
- Experimental evaluation of the potential beneficial effects of estrogen synthesis inhibitors and/or modulators against benign prostatic hyperplasia.
- Conduct a study on the profile of amino acids and biogenic materials in human semen for clinical diagnosis of certain andrological Cases using highly sensitive HPLC techniques.
- Utilize innovative methods in certain drug delivery to the prostate gland.
- Design and synthesize a novel prostate-specific anti-cholinergic drug
Expected Outcomes
- Out a clear vision about the spread of disease, chronic inflammation of the prostate and erectile dysfunction concomitantly with benign prostatic hyperplasia in patients who were subjected to clinical study in urology clinics.
