None of Prince Raad's sons are doctors, come to think of it, no-one of the JRF including extended family are doctors, but Firas does have a degree in public health.

Prince Raad bin Zeid is the only son of Prince Zeid bin Hussein. Prince Zeid was the youngest brother of the Kings Feisal I of Iraq and Abdullah I of Jordan, who were all the sons of the Sherif Hussein of Mecca. Prince Raad's mother was Turkish, as was Prince Zeid's mother. Prince Zeid was the Ambassador of Hashemite Kingdom of Iraq in Germany, where Prince Raad was born, and then in the United Kingdom until the revolution in Iraq in 1958. He subsequently lived and eventually died in Paris.

His Royal Highness Prince Firas Raad and Her Royal Highness Princess Dana Firas of Jordan were honored at a dinner given by the United Cerebral Palsy Research and Educational Foundation at the Graham Arader Gallery on Madison Avenue and 72nd Street.
The purpose of the dinner was to announce the Middle East Research Collaboration in which the Israeli, Jordanian and Palestinian medical communities are collaborating to identify effective therapy for those with Cerebral Palsy. The Collaboration (MERC) will study cerebral palsy therapy at three sites including Assaf Hartofeh in Israel, Princes Masma Center in East Jerusalem and Al-Hussein Society in Jordan. UCP Research and Educational Facility provides expert oversight to the initial grant of $500,000 from USAID which initiated the collaboration. The monies were directed to Ben Gurion University in Israel with the directive to conduct a three site clinical study of specific therapy interventions in Israeli, Jordanian and Palestinian children.
