Can’t wait to be part of this round table discussion ‘Quo Vadis Science?’
@UCT_MDL @UCTOBL @uctbme @UCT_HUB @UCT_Research @UCTHealthSci @UCT_news
@SAYAS_SA Invite you to a Science Roundtable Discussion on 30 June 2021 at 17h00 – 18h30. Register: zoom.us/meeting/register/tJI… @ASSAf_Official @NRF_News @SudeshSivarasu @chinyaz @NASAC @TWAS_SAREP @NextEinsteinFor @GlobalYAcademy @NRF_SAASTA @SAAOOutreach @dsigovza @OWSD_SA
ALT The webinar seeks to share reflections around some key issues affecting science, scientists and communities in general. Panellists offer critique to these issues and saliently on: a) access to scientific information and science communication; b) ethics in science research and also, c) science and science management (including the critical aspect of policy emphasis). These issues of discussion hopefully not only ignite debate but also challenge attendees to reflect on a path of – what could be done?

Recently got involved in the #ArcelorMittal Foundation Saldanha Science Centre and what an enlightening experience!
We donated a 3D-printed #prosthetic limb that was use in STEMI roving exhibition.
The exhibit encourages young minds on the West Coast to choose #STEMI careers.
