[Digital Business Africa] –<\/strong> Le Next Einstein Forum<\/a> (NEF) a publi\u00e9 ce 05 ao\u00fbt 2019 \u00e0 Kigali au Rwanda <\/a>les laur\u00e9ats de sa troisi\u00e8me promotion des 25 scientifiques africains d’envergure. Tous sont \u00e2g\u00e9s de moins de 42 ans. Leurs recherches et innovations contribuent \u00e0 relever les d\u00e9fis les plus urgents pour l’Afrique et le monde.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n

\u00ab Je suis ravi de pr\u00e9senter la 3i\u00e8me promotion des laur\u00e9ats NEF pour deux raisons : la premi\u00e8re est le fait que nous avons presque atteint la parit\u00e9, avec 11 femmes au sein de la promotion. La seconde raison est la vari\u00e9t\u00e9 des domaines et des pays d’o\u00f9 sont issus les laur\u00e9ats. Les laur\u00e9ats s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9s font de la recherche de pointe dans le secteur de l’\u00e9nergie renouvelable, de la nanomat\u00e9riau et de la nanotechnologie, de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 alimentaire, de la m\u00e9decine de pr\u00e9cision, des syst\u00e8mes de sant\u00e9, de la science du climat et de l’urbanisme. Le fait que deux scientifiques sociaux aient \u00e9t\u00e9 s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9s pour cette promotion constitue \u00e9galement une premi\u00e8re pour le groupe des laur\u00e9ats. Nous sommes convaincus que leurs d\u00e9couvertes actuelles et futures r\u00e9soudront les enjeux mondiaux et nous sommes ravis de vous les pr\u00e9senter<\/em> \u00bb, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 Thierry Zomahoun<\/a>, fondateur , pr\u00e9sident du Next Einstein Forum et pr\u00e9sident-directeur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de l’Institut panafricain des sciences math\u00e9matiques (AIMS<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n

Initiative de l’Institut panafricain des sciences math\u00e9matiques (AIMS), le NEF r\u00e9compensera les laur\u00e9ats lors de sa rencontre Internationale 2020 \u00e0 Nairobi, au Kenya<\/a>, le 10 mars 2020, sous le patronage du pr\u00e9sident Uhuru Kenyatta<\/a>. Les laur\u00e9ats NEF perp\u00e9tueront la tradition qui consiste \u00e0 pr\u00e9senter leurs recherches innovantes lors de cette rencontre.<\/p>\n\n

NEF Fellows are selected by an International Scientific Program Committee, using a rigorous process that comprises academic and scientific merit, a strong publication record, patents, awards and a track record of funds independently raised for research. Fellows are also required to demonstrate the relevance of their research or innovations to humanity’s grand challenges, as well as a passion for raising Africa’s scientific profile and inspiring the next generation of scientific leaders.<\/p>\n\n

“We are tremendously pleased to welcome the new class to the growing NEF Community of Scientists, and the thirty-five Fellows that preceded this cohort. This Class was selected in record timing because of the quality of their profiles and we look forward to their contributions to our foresight work and public engagement programs like Africa Science Week,” said Dr. Youssef Travaly, Vice President of Science, Innovation and Partnerships.<\/p>\n\n

Entre autre innovations, la seconde promotion a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e0 l’avant-garde des recherches innovantes en mati\u00e8re de blockchain <\/a>pour les microcr\u00e9dits, de bioinformatique pour l’am\u00e9lioration de la production agricole et de d\u00e9tection non-invasive de la malaria. Plusieurs laur\u00e9ats ont \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9compens\u00e9s par un million de dollars pour leurs recherches. Les laur\u00e9ats du NEF ont dirig\u00e9 la publication du journal scientifique africain du NEF qui en est \u00e0 son quatri\u00e8me num\u00e9ro depuis mars 2018. En reconnaissance de leurs travaux et de leur excellence scientifique, trois laur\u00e9ats ont rejoint le comit\u00e9 de programme scientifique international du NEF.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n

\u00c0 propos du Next Einstein Forum<\/strong>
\nLanc\u00e9 en 2013 par l’Institut panafricain des sciences math\u00e9matiques (AIMS), le\ntravail du Next Einstein Forum (NEF) est fa\u00e7onn\u00e9 par sa conviction que le\nprochain Einstein sera Africain. Son challenge, faire de l’Afrique une\nplateforme scientifique et technologique mondiale. Le NEF relie la science, la\nsoci\u00e9t\u00e9 et les politiques africaines au reste du monde – avec l’objectif\nd’utiliser la science pour le d\u00e9veloppement humain \u00e0 l’\u00e9chelle mondiale. Le NEF\na organis\u00e9 des\u00a0rencontres internationales<\/a>, bi-annuelles, la conf\u00e9rence des sciences et de l’innovation la\nplus importante d’Afrique.<\/p>\n\n

The NEF organized biennial\u00a0global gatherings<\/a>, Africa’s largest science and innovation conference. Far from an ordinary science forum, the NEF Global Gatherings position science at the centre of global development efforts. In the presence of political and industry leaders, and with a strong focus on youth and women, the voices of global science leaders’ have the opportunity to be heard and to have major impact on Africa’s scientific future. The NEF Global Gathering 2020 will be held on 10-13 March 2020 in Nairobi, Kenya. \n \nIn addition, the NEF organizes an\u00a0Africa Science Week<\/a>\u00a0in over 30 countries each year. This year’s edition will be held in 40 countries in October 2019. To make science relevant for everyone, the NEF publishes a public magazine\u00a0Scientific African Magazine<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n\n
