DW The July 3, 2024

I mean, for children, i suddenly crazy about physics and chemistry. And weve got a few surprises in store for you. The now science plays an incredibly important tool in all of our lives, from innovation, acknowledge the, to understanding and studying the world around us. The question is, what do you choose a career in it . I for sure with nods. I was proficient in physics for about 2 minutes before i realized that it wasnt for me, but some of my other friends did it. Thats what leslie, not unlike some young kind of research as who we met. They give us a glimpse into what it takes to build a korea in science. My name is laura, and i see today i am a buy it from much on here as a International Institute of topical agriculture. I do have a background in medical by chemistry, but i major in Scientific Research across the board is growing up. I did enjoy science subjects, my premiere school, i enjoyed science. I excelled at 5, but also enjoy watching uh, scientific programs on this to be like mindset and sense of stupid. I remember watching them and feeling like i want to understand this things the same way they pass on is explaining them. Today. Laura works with big data at the International Institute of tropical audit culture and kenya, a team is working on decoding the genetic makeup of plants. The ultimate goal is to create varieties which are resistant to devastating pests and diseases where a variety of things that from us would be looking for in a divide plan. So number one, of course it has to move this done to the view, the one to grow up plants but can easily be attacked by disease as in many days. But also you want to have plants that can produce a lot of yield with a state of food security. You want to have plants that, you know, can feed your family and you can still maybe sell time for extra chain. Right now, laura and her left team are working on the material disease bananas since the moon this world that is widespread, new east africa, infected thomas can lose between 50 to a 100 percent of the phenomena houses. 10 minutes late that genetic, makeup of phenomena plants which have been grow in a control environment. The prime cma has been tested to see the modification was successful. The hope is that the funds will be able to grow the improve invitees in just a few years. While lauras familiar with the lab processes from a college days, a job now involves decoding the genetic data to fire and from metrics. So by into much of an interdisciplinary field between computer science, biology and statistics. So it presents relative opportunities for young people to tap into this field because nimble, i need some group, its growing in the mind. A lot of biological research thats done with being kenya and was in africa will at some point, she clarified for much of so now uses together with some of her colleagues. Laura is part of the buyer and for metrics hub of kenya and network of young researches who want to build up the field of bioinformatics in the country. So to reach out to undergraduate students. Otherwise might not know much about the subject in research and trying to answer questions about that. You with questions and the fuck, lets each and every time you want to solve a big a puzzle, its order is fussing at the end. So we find it extremely useful to visit the undergraduate students because probably they just get a few times to know about bunch from optics maternity dont know the application aspect of it. One more in most Scientific Research is coming out of africa. The opportunities for young researches make themselves a still far and few between. There arent enough Research Institutions and most of the funding still comes from abroad. Its unfortunate to say, but i mean a is in college my, my friends of people who we studied and the muscle level is digital and has come back home, you know, and you know, giving back to the community. Of course Everyone Wants to and is think about in the past, but again, we are using these really and bring out saying, yeah, the team hopes that one day they can build their own institution with students. And researchers learn and work for laura who is just at the beginning of a career, a page. The info in symmetric is the logical next step. Who knows what groundbreaking research and recommendations my plight ahead a so just a little sacked for you. Did you know the just of a one percent will v such as world white . A based in africa. Yeah, thats crazy. And thats according to your next school. So it would be great to see what paternity is that young research. I liked laura and her colleagues group. In the meantime, were about to get so i enter and of course i can be trusted to do this myself. So ive been asked to, we have these goals, i actually dont know what were about to do because i wanted to be an experience for all of us. So yeah, this is in say youre going to be the 1st. All right, so as i just get over the, yeah, this is ruth to money everyone. Can you tell us whats happening right now . Was i just look into you, you try to task. Its really cool. This is, this is what it would be like. You just repeat that, thats the close of that. So what is this exactly . What is creating this . So from times when, what air raises when, when, when what happens updates. Very cool. So once the for sale comes up as a free shown and then close the give it precipitate to call now, no. Okay, so this is part of what you do here. Um, actually tell us where we are and what you do is send, communicate public inducements, funding to the patient global network. So if i sign him, which is fine, but, and i think well be able to engage children across all of it. Additional level spots in the necessary level. Why am i really young . Yeah. And also special level with young people. Okay. So how does the students react when they see this . I mean, im a grown up. I know whats going on and yet to fax anything. Yeah. So for kids, it must really do something in connecting them with science. And just as the reaction is because the children who just want to run up and just touching it and just want to even be inside the dispute. What is really happening . Because what we had inside the bucket was liquid nitrogen, i think we mentioned 20. Yes. And you can start to make it to 197 degrees. Wow. So one, when i add a port, which i was waiting in the truck and then port, what happens now is that to the auction, which will form the exist as you see the most recent o pokes out of that all happen very quickly. So lets do that again. Lets get you ready. Im ready. It is to just, yeah, well this is beautiful. So what you guys hear is like i can talk to this this i just feel like ive been completely out of faith. This is one of the most magical experience. Uh, do you know who wow, yeah, this is great. You know, the actually people who are already making clouds for of the supporting an aging cloud formation. Its called cloud cd. They use different chemicals than what we use here, but this is what its all about. Have you ever heard of cloud cd in times of job countries like new jersey and molly, have use this technique to support cloud formation and increase the chance of rainfall . No 80 for those people must know that the make to load your Code Department does not make clouds. This is that you will get to, of course, but we know the physical and chemical processes of cloud formation and green. So we act on this process by improvement. Its with sets and chemicals, which is free into the cloud to cos ring, or how can i, i can make the team is about to take off on board the small plane for the cloud seating mission. The plane is equipped with cartridges, caring, chemical compounds such as sofa sodium and acetone. This aircraft is capable of seating, flowed low in high otc relative. Yeah, we have hydro, this material is useful seating a little out to. Its either inside the stall or below. Down here we have products useful, high o 2 cubes for those we go above this dome to inject them, well, cloud seating is supposed to help farmers feel different opinions on how effective it is. And whether changing the weather could in fact be a bit more than us humans can handle to. So were still here having fun and being educated and rose to just struck me. But when i was in school, i really hated anything to do with science. Why do you think its so difficult for people like me to love the work that you do . You think it goes back to different interest fast . But then again, i also want to come to me on the, the system as a whole. Bunch of students never be engaged 4 times on me because when i talk about potential edition, i totally relate to that. What you would have to do with it. What does it do . So when we, when we write the page on the phone, you should not because but when it comes to interrupt to be, i think now you know, when its fun. Yeah. Gauging is that shifting, know the mindset. So what are we about to do . You talked about potassium, iodide, potassium iodide and hydrogen tighter center and say, okay, what are they and what are we about to go about to make elephant elephant brush the fees . Yes. So the reaction that the result is a big food. Ok, so thats what we call an elephant elephant of 50 something huge, something big. So whats your time to show here today is how the options take place. So i have to police me. The green stuff is associate. And what is this is food color, just products to be able to, to add more besides these. So for drama feed most science with color reactions, blue and red. So im going to put this here. This i would assume which is nice and easy to box and size clear again, i can tell you something thats used to catalyze rather fox us the option here. So this is id like to do when i did, you kinda said you dont need to tell me twice. Good. Thats good. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my goodness. Its all the way up to. Oh, its very warm. Its one of the things was coming to auction. Mm hm. And remember, we have shown is every option that gives the image right to produce this image. And thats how you can feel the world around. And so what do you use this for . Is it just for the purposes of demonstrating something or does it have an a value you should notice to demonstrate that show you how get should yeah. Just be able to put it together. I also on my next, yeah. Have something called up to me. Can just attach it to make a full head. Yeah. Get that idea. Oh, the use is this is just uh, gimme a call that mix together to form. We just need construction industry. Me find the, the, the form that is usually applied in for interviews for installation. Yeah. So this is one, this is, yeah. Okay. I like that. You really just broken down everything. It makes it accessible and to, to what you said it is fun. So we keep planning, we keep learning, keep great and we keep having fun. Yes. I thank you so much to ruth. Im the entire team here at the funding invitation. Pleasure. So speaking of how we can put science so good use something that has everyone on edge at the moment is a i or a traditional intelligence. On the one hand, many of us already using ai to help us answer questions or even transfer me to which is but on the other hand, were also asking ourselves how much power should we really give this technology and couldnt be trusted . Well, we wanted to find out how i can be used to make a positive impact. And we found some good in innovative who are doing just that and is go to draw the cup to the views the tell because shes come with money to the crop. The images, they capture a process to the machine, learning to, to check pests and diseases. So thomas can take steps. Preventative krupps from suicide, stomach andrews, konica, and his team from the clara group are behind the technology. Why did they get this . They knew exactly what is wrong and if im not that they have to glass coffee and try to figure out what is wrong with this and you kind of just deposition pinpoint exactly what this on the buyer think that is disease with dice best. Thats just a disturbing, deformed, and it can control each other call. It wont Teaching Hospital in the, in a cra as if you sure, and that is also making its to be here on a platform is helping health care. Well, cuz the x ray images more effect, its fixed. The diagnosis, festa, you fucking families very much as new kids. We are using you guys with a shortage of Health Workers in many hospitals. The developers of the Mental Health platform once the a i to, to fill the gap. The only way we can actually catch up with the rest of the well to sleep frog. And this creates a platform for us, the products. And whats other way to live, bro . Cuz then weve a public robots. This ones called cello and its develop, ah, benjamin notate has programmed aids to be a personal assistant and so questions or even help you take your medication. At the right time, you can use cello to, you know, access the elderly within the Customer Service environments. You can actually place opposition tell a bad to perform um, you know, guide people who come around this of america do you know, display of prices. This new technology is seen by many as a way to both columbia and create new jobs and kind of wants to have a bite of that. But there are fees that the existing jobs could be as risk. Generally, people should be willing to ask joe. And then the skilled himself menus. Ready then how to use the eyes. How would he, i hope to make your job easier, i need to stop leverage and do stuff. In the meantime, this Developers Keep pursuing new ideas and solutions they be can change the fortunes for people in ghana and beyond. Im so what were hearing more and more about whether use of a sticking us. Perhaps you can tell us what you make of it. What do you use a full if a tone and have you had any good or bad experiences with it . Well, okay, we have one more innovative to me. Hes a young man from uganda, and his actually designs a mini computer, which he claims as more affordable and practical than those of you and i probably use, i know you want to see this. So lets have a look access to technology. If it is d h, that is something that still remains a privilege for those who can afford it. No co software engine. Yeah, i have on pedagogy. Believes everyone should be able to assess computers. So he puts his money where his mouth is. 2017 could design an affordable meaning computer, which it calls the fuse to stick. When you look at africa as a point, and then we very much left behind my of admissions and was in terms of technology. So what i see eventually is kitchens uh, visit with the prospect too much people have about africa, but we cannot, you know, that we cannot mix things of our own. So a little making things of our own people will actually get more access to these things. The Mini Computers loops and function similar to a memory stick, a step, its loaded with no model computer programs. Simply plug it into any smart screen and hit press 2, youve got to solve a fully functioning computer. But its because the drug catch could be its cost. The fuse did come in the cost around 70. 00, making it about 5 times more affordable than conventional compute test. And youve done that. They tell students someone to assume we go to hunt when a test unit and has been using it ever since. Ive assessed one at the standard and 50000 and its been great ever since. Because i can do all my luck on the, on the t v. Which would be a print mary, board, a write them down. I store my information. The also has my music as well. I can plug in my notes and, you know, listen to music once in a while, i will grab as many computers use this relatively Little Energy hills. This will bring down costs even further. Our device is, is uh uh, i rolled forward to bar for which is quite slow. Its actually willis then most and then you saving bugs. So when you look at the body, you know that we give to the end user already has difficulties in fading for the the n as in yellow, kind of it is why its more efficient to then be the user because a know more laptop uses our own 65, what . Then a desktop setup. We use about a 125. Whats the flooring them sites like this is where most of the waste in composite alons, this includes e with like gold, discounted computers by compressing tech stuff, technology and to pocket size devices kind of go by wants to minimize his footprints on the environment. So with a smaller device means less material, 100, less material. Eventually, after the projects life cycle, when it comes to disposing of the product, you will have less weight. In the last 2 years, chiral got but has to do useful about 150 many computers having just received funding to produce smart devices. Kind of go by hoops to scale these production and brick into the market. So from what weve just seen with roles, we know that learning science even as a child can actually be fun. Especially if you loved discovering and experimenting. So after watching and studying abroad attempts on the inductor, wanted to provide the students with a place where they can discover the world of science outside the classroom. And shes really a whole center just for this. My name is ridiculous. Edward medical doctor and the patient, the scientist of the co founder project, inspire and respite to be the 1st disney land for science in africa. I was born in tons of new and better set. Im actually, and weve had a very beautiful growing environment with my siblings when i finished my 1st degree in medicine. So i was thinking, i need to get out of this country and get more exposure apart from just seeing the things in tv and, but for scholarship, derek entry from empty to go to a place that helps out of diversity. So i spent 5 years of my life when they left the country to sweden, i was interested to see what life has to offer out there and had thoughts of staying. But before i left, i had already started project inspire. And then theres one thing thats really, really was driving me to come back and say, okay, im, im going outside to get as much as i can. So that when i come back on my views so that they can the, the question of the importance of science, technology, engineering, mathematics takes them in an african context. Is that Science Technology engineering. Math is the one that has progressed through money to sofa and africa as a continent has a lot of opportunities to caption leapfrog, to you know, success that other countries have been tons, an inborn, raised and educated, at least to my, my 1st degree in medicine and ive gone through Public Schools and neglect the private school, so i have a good taste of both worlds. And being in it asked for, opened up my mind in terms of okay, it could be better and then it became a personal emission to give his experience that i didnt get growing up and make a different situation for young people who need to have that. So give me some, a personal one of the major things that i learnt is i did not know much about myself and th
