| ==Overview==
| |
| | |
| Founded in 7568 RH from the merger of several previously independent research agencies formed in the Commonwealth period, TsIIR's purpose is to "expound upon the pursuit of scientific endeavours in fields deemed to be in the national interest." Its founding was meant to unify the critical national R&D establishment with the intent of keeping the fledgling republic at the forefront of science, technology, and engineering. It has gradually built a reputation as one of the world's leading organisations for scientific and technological development.
| |
| | |
| The current director general of TsIIR is Doctor Leonid Radeonovich Pavlov, the great grandson of Doctor Andrei Ivanovich Pavlov, the preeminent surgeon and medical researcher in whose honour the Pavlov Research Bureau is named. Leonid Radeonovich, like his famous ancestor, is a medical researcher, whose own work centres on immunology and virology.

| Zelerino Research and Development Centre, also known as Facility 4125, is the main research park and headquarters of the organisation. It is the only TsIIR site to have facilities for all sixteen of the constituent research bureaus. It is located on the outskirts of the closed town of Zelerino (also known as Kaspirod-7) in southern Arvor.
