相关论文: The African Biophysics Landscape: A Provisional St…

This report is a serious call to scientists, innovators, investors, and policymakers to invest in the development of biophysics in Africa. The complex problems of our day demand multidisciplinary approaches, and biophysics offers training…

We present the status of the research in the field of atomic and molecular physics in Africa as well as some challenges hindering the efforts being made by the African scientists. We further report the discussions and progress of the…

In the framework of the African Strategy for Fundamental and Applied Physics AFSAP, we have launched a survey to understand the need in computing of research scientists in Africa. In this paper we summarise the survey and extract possible…

Generating scientific and technological knowledge and converting them into innovations which are of added value to society are key instruments for a society economic growth and development. As outstanding as these capabilities are for other…

This contribution highlights challenges afflicting physics education in Africa and provides a reflection on key areas for intervention to strengthen capacity building.

In the first part of this report, I discuss the sociological role of fundamental research in Developing Countries (DC) and how to realize this program. In the second part, I give a brief and elementary introduction to the field of…

This reviews the econophysics activities in Belgium from my admittedly biased point of view. Unknown historical notes or facts are presented for the first time explaining the aims, whence evolution of the research papers and friendly…

Sustainable development is an imperative worldwide but metrics and data on poverty and quality of life have remained too coarse and abstract to characterize challenges adequately and guide practical progress. Nowhere is this challenge…

The concrete vision of having Africa as a leader sharing equivalent responsibilities and deliverables towards the global scientific societies turn out to be more obvious by time. Africa is not an exception when it comes to advanced science…

This document summarizes our best knowledge of the ongoing High Energy Physics activities in Africa. The information was primarily extracted from the first ASFAP Particle Physics day organised on November 2021 and on our working group talk…

The conventional economic approaches explore very little about the dynamics of the economic systems. Since such systems consist of a large number of agents interacting nonlinearly they exhibit the properties of a complex system. Therefore…

This paper explores the dynamic landscape of Artificial Intelligence (AI) adoption in Africa, analysing its varied applications in addressing socio-economic challenges and fostering development. Examining the African AI ecosystem, the study…

Despite significant efforts to democratize artificial intelligence (AI), computer vision which is a sub-field of AI, still lags in Africa. A significant factor to this, is the limited access to computing resources, datasets, and…

The African School of Fundamental Physics and Applications is a biennial school in Africa. It is based on the observation that fundamental physics provides excellent motivation for students of science. The aim of the school is to build…

This paper reviews the status of women in science, physics in particular, in Cyprus. We describe the development of physics in the country, focusing on the contributions and participation of women. We present statistical data for the last…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming education and the workforce, but access to AI learning opportunities in Africa remains uneven. With rapid demographic shifts and growing labour market pressures, AI has become a strategic…

We start by summarising very briefly the various prior attempts (during the last one and half a decade), some of which were made as independent research centres and others as visiting centres with extensive visiting programs for luminaries…

Higher education and advanced scientific research lead to social, economic, and political development of any country. All developed societies like the current 2022 G7 countries: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK, and the US have…

Increasing numbers of physicists engage in research activities that address biological questions from physics perspectives or strive to develop physics insights from active biological processes. The on-going development and success of such…

Biological systems are influenced by fluid mechanics at nearly all spatiotemporal scales. This broad relevance of fluid mechanics to biology has been increasingly appreciated by engineers and biologists alike, leading to continued expansion…
