In his 3-minute talk, titled “Breaking the Wall of Contamination”, Quirin demonstrated a fully developed method for cleaning and recycling chemical products. The current solutions for synthesizing pharmaceutics heavily depend on toxic catalysers. These elements need to be isolated in chemical processes, which are costly and energy-intensive. Based on highly…

Scientists drown in a flood of pseudo-digitalized PDF articles and research is seriously flawed: results cannot be reproduced, peer-review is defunct, there is increasing redundancy. Global challenges (e.g. COVID19 pandemic) require interdisciplinarity and integrating bits and pieces from different disciplines. The ORKG connects various ideas, approaches, methods and results in…

The mission of OzGrav is to capitalise on the historic first detections of gravitational waves to understand the extreme physics of black holes and warped spacetime, and to inspire the next generation of Australian scientists and engineers through this new window on the Universe. The Centre brings together the Australian…

How Immunotherapy Can Become Effective Against Cancer One of the biggest challenges in the research for new cancer treatments is the fact that many tumours are equipped with a molecular shield that allows them to repel attacks from the immune system.

Jóse-Alain Sahel elaborated one patient’s journey from having sight, losing it and slowly regaining it after 20 years. He was sharing insights on the process that involves an innovative use of gene therapy, stimulating goggles and lots of training to restore vision for retinal regression.

Lemar Hurtado Hoyos is addressing issues of low food and tech sovereignty, agricultural productivity, and ecological footprint in Cuba by proposing a solution that involves hydroponics for year-round production of edible mushrooms, vegetables, and high-quality flowers. This approach aims to contribute to the circular economy, reduce waste, prioritise local resources,…

The first phase of this project is to recycle the liquid cassava waste and collect the sugar waste from the sugar factory. The second phase will be to produce Bioethanol.

Hemanshi Galaiya is addressing the educational disparity in Kenya, where 95% of schools teach STEM subjects purely theoretically, negatively impacting young adults’ perceptions of STEM careers, particularly among women. Her solution involves implementing customised curriculums, hands-on STEM education, coding programs, and leadership workshops for students, funded through profits from high-income…
