Just wrapped up an incredible 72-hour agya fact-finding mission with the brilliant Vice-Presidents and Provosts of top universities in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, UAE. The main goal of our fact-finding mission is to promote the call for membership of the Arab-German Young Academy of Sciences and Humanities (AGYA)!
Dr. Nada El Darra and I had the pleasure to meet Vice-President Sultan Al Haji, the Acting Provost Prof. Tim Baldwin at MBZUAI (Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence), and the Acting Provost and Chief Academic Officer Prof. Michael Allen at Zayed University besides our brilliant colleagues Dr. Rania Dghaim, Dr. Fatme Al Anouti, and Dr. Omar Alfandi.
Thanks to our alumna, Dr. Henda Mahmoudi, and her colleagues Nour El Jundi and Evans Kioko, we very much enjoyed the wonderful field trip at International Center for Biosaline Agriculture (ICBA) where we discussed potential interdisciplinary research collaboration on AI and Food Safety!
