tv The 77 Percent Deutsche Welle September 9, 2023 7:30am-8:01am CEST
7:30 am
the signature studies, now you have a certificate from the train, you can choose to go back to somewhere else. currently more people than ever on the world wide in such a professional life, at least something that is coming very very soon. and yeah, can we learn more about or no one a story info. my grands hello and welcome to the submitted 7 percent. my name is edith came on me and today i'm coming to you from a place of pool. lots of nairobi. on this episode, we want to find out what steps of dr. young applicants are taking the world of science. here's what we've got. we'll leave young researches from the punch and to find out what it takes to become an actual science to find out why doesn't you pull children? i suddenly read about physics and chemistry and we've got
7:31 am
a few surprises in store for you. the now science plays an incredibly important tool in all of our lives, from innovation in technology, to understanding and studying the world around us. the question is, what do you choose, a korea and it's i for sure, with nods. i was proficient in physics for about 2 minutes before i could realize that it wasn't for me, but some of my other friends did it. that's 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 at the 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
7:32 am
enjoy science subjects, my premiere school. i enjoyed science, i x, so that's fine. 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 you to understand this things the same way they pass on is expanding them today. laura works with big data at the international institute of tropical agriculture in kenya, the 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 decide plant. so number one, of course it has to be assistant to the view, go onto grow our 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 thoughts on for extra change. right
7:33 am
now, laura and her left team are working on the material disease, banana since the moon this world that is widespread, new east africa, infected thomas can those between 50 to a 100 percent of the phenomena, how this dominican data, genetic makeup of phenomena plants which have been grow in a controlled environment. the prime steering aid has been tested to see if the modification was successful. the hope is that the funds will be able to go to improve invitees in just a few years. while laura's familiar with the lab processes from a college days, a job now involves decoding the genetic data to fire and for metrics. so by into much of an interdisciplinary field between computer science, biology and statistics. so it presented have opportunities for young people to tap into this field. because nimble, i need some group, it's growing in the mind. a list of biological research that's done within kenya.
7:34 am
and within africa will at some point she class. thank so much if somebody uses together with some of her colleagues, laura is part of the buyer. and for metrics have of kenya, a network of young researches who want to build up the field of bioinformatics in the country. so to reach out to undergraduate students. otherwise, my don't know my know about the subject to the research. i'm trying to answer questions, but let you with questions and the fuck, let's each and every time you want to solve a big a puzzle, it's orders the fussing at the and so we find that she needs useful to visit the undergraduate students because probably they just get a few time to know about, but for me, i takes maternity don't know the application aspect of it. one moment most scientific research is coming out of africa. the opportunities for young researches make themselves a so far and few between there aren't enough research institutions. and most of the funding still comes from abroad. if i'm fortunate in to say,
7:35 am
but i mean own is in college my, my friends and people who we studied the muscle level is digital and is coming back home, you know, and you know, you much in the community. of course everyone wants to lose. think about people not positive, but again, we're using these really and bring out things. 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 the career, a page. the info in symmetric is the logical next step. who knows what groundbreaking research and recommendations my plight ahead. so just a little sacked for you. did you know the just was a one for central ve such as world wide a based in africa. yeah, that's crazy. and that's according to your next school. so it would be great to see what paternity is that young research. i liked laura and her colleagues grew. in the meantime,
7:36 am
we're about to get so i enter and of course i can be trusted to do this myself. so i've been asked to, we have these goals, i actually don't know what we're about to do because i wanted to be an experience for all of us. so yeah, this is in same and you're going to be the 1st. all right, so as i just it's dead. yeah, this is luke, you money, everyone. can you tell us what's happening right now? was i just look into you, you try to task. it's really cool. this is, this is what it would be like if you just repeat that. that's the close of that. so what is this exactly? what is creating this?
7:37 am
so from times when, what air raises when, when, when what happens updates. very cool. so once the sale comes up and then close the give us a precipitate to fall now? no. okay, so this is part of what you do here. um actually tell us where we are and what you do. i understand his sense, communicate. uh, we can do 2 minutes for us to practice on the, on the application level of network. so if i sign him, which is fine, and i think well, be able to engage children across all of a traditional level positive in the necessary level. well, i remember, yeah. and also special level young people. okay. so how does the students react when they see these?
7:38 am
i mean i'm a grown up, i know what's going on and yes, to fax, anything. yeah. so for kids, it must really do something in connecting them with science. and just as you reaction, because the children who just want to run out and just touching it and just once would even be inside the dispute, which is really happening. because once we had inside the bucket was liquid nitrogen 20. and you can start at 197 degrees. wow. so one, when i add a port, which i was reading in the truck and then poured what happens now is that to the actual original forms that you know still exist as you see the most recent o pokes of the that all happen very quickly. so let's do that again. let's do that again. i you ready? i'm ready. it is to just, yeah. or, well,
7:39 am
this is beautiful. so what you can see here is like i talk to just this, i just feel like i'm in some place out of place. this is one of the most magical experience the do you know who have done well. yeah. so this is great here. now the actually people who are really making clouds for of the supporting an aging cloud formation. it's called cloud cd. they use different chemicals than what we use here. but this is what it's all about. have you ever heard of cloud cd in terms of job countries like new jersey and molly? have use this technique to support cloud formation and increase the chance of rain for a fact. those people must know that the methodology code department does not make clouts. this is the pre real good shape of god, but we know the physical and chemical processes of cloud formation and green. so we
7:40 am
act on this process by improvement. it's with sensing chemicals, which we split into the cloud to cos ring. so i 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 cloud, a low and high o t relative. yeah, we have hydro. this material is used for seating at low altitude. it's either inside the storm or below. down here, we have products useful, high o 2 cubes. for those we go above this dumb 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. but so we're still having fun and being
7:41 am
educated, andrew, so just struck me. but when i was in school, i really hated anything to do with science. why do you think it's so difficult for people like me to love the work that you do? i think it goes back to different interest fast, but then again, old school, one to come to me on the, the system as a whole. bunch of students never been engaged 4 times or not. because when i talk about edition, i that mm hm. how do you relate to that? what you would have to do with it? what does it do? so when you, when, when, when, when you write to please on the phone, usually because occasions but when you actually come to interrupt to the, i think now you know, when it's fun. yeah. gauging you start shifting, know the mindset. so what are we about to do?
7:42 am
you've talked about potassium, iodide, potassium iodide and hydrogen hyphen center and say, okay, what are they and what are we about to go about to make an elephant brush that fees? yes. so the reaction that the result is a big. okay, so that's what we call an elephant elephant. it's something cute, something big. yeah. so what's 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 color. most science with color reactions, blue and red. so we put this here,
7:43 am
this for the winter, which is a medium box to size. again, i can tell you something that used to come to light the fox best the, the action here. but if it is ok to do to i did you kinda said you don't need to tell me twice. good. that's good reason. yeah. oh my goodness, it's all the way up to. oh it's very warm. it's one of the things with comics. reaction me, remember, reaction is every option that gives the image, right? it's the produces image and that's 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 know just to demonstrate that show you how get should ste. yeah. and
7:44 am
just to be able to put it together because i, i'm also on my neck. yeah. have something close up to me. i 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 and us to find the, the, the form that is usually applied in for interviews for installation. yes. so this is what 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 ricky planning, we keep learning, keep great and we keep having fun. yes. i love that. thank you so much to ruth. i'm 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
7:45 am
which is but on the other hand, we're also asking ourselves how much power should we really give this technology and couldn't 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 up it go. the gold cup to confuse the toe because she's come of money to the crop. the images, they capture a process to the machine, learning to, to effect pests and diseases. so thomas can take steps preventative krupps from to a stomach and who's kinda and his team from the clara group are behind the technology. why did they get this? they knew exactly what is wrong, and if i'm not that they have to waste content and try to figure out what is wrong with this and you kind of just deposition pinpoint exactly what to solve it by that . the way that is disease with dice best that's just
7:46 am
a deformed and he can control each other call. it won't teaching hospital and the email cra as if you sure, and the is also making it's to be here on a i platform is helping health care. well, because the x ray images more effect, it's fixed. the diagnosis, festa, reports in 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 gaps the only way we can actually catch up with the rest of the well to sleep frog. and this creates a platform for us to leapfrog. and what's other way to live broke then with a pile of robots. this one's called cello and it's 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,
7:47 am
access the elderly within the customer service environments. you can actually place opposition chavel 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 creates 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 goes then how do you guys, how would he, i hope to make your job easy. i need to stop leverage and do stuff in the meantime, this developers keep pursuing new ideas and solutions. they believe can change the fortunes for people in ghana and beyond. or i'm so what we're 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
7:48 am
a full if a tone and have you had any good or bad experiences with it? well, okay, we have one more innovative to meet. he's 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 for the use. i know you want to see this. so let's have a look. access to technology. introduce d h. that is something that still remains a privilege for those who can afford it. no co software engine. yeah, i have on categor leads. everyone should be able to assess computers. so he puts his money where his mouth is in 2017 could design and affordable. many computers, which it calls the fuse to stick. when you look at africa as a point, and then we very much left behind my other nations and wilds in terms of technology. so what i see eventually is to change the
7:49 am
perspective that's people have about africa, but we cannot, you know, that we cannot mix things from 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, except it's loaded with no mile computer programs. simply plug it into any smart screen and hit press 2, you've got to solve a fully functioning computer. but it's because drop category would be, it's the cost. the fuse did come in the cost around $70.00, making it to about 5 times more affordable than conventional computers. and you've done that. they tell students someone to assume we go to hunt when a test unit and has been using it ever since. i've assessed one at the standard and 50000 and it's been great of a sense because i couldn't do all my luck on the,
7:50 am
on the t. v. literally a print mary puts a write them down. i still on my formation. the also has my music as well. i can plug in my it's, it's in, you know, listen to music once in a while, kind of goes meaning computer use is relatively little energy hills. this will bring down costs even further. our device is around for a far for it's is quite slow, it's actually willis then most and then you saving bones. so when you look at the body, know that we give to the end user already has difficulties in fading for the the n as in yellow, kind of it is quite more efficient to then be the user because a no more level using their own $65.00 what then it desktop setup. we
7:51 am
use about a 125. what's the flooring them sites like this is what most of the waste in composite lunch. this includes e with like gold, discounted computers by compressing tech stuff technology. it's a pocket size devices. kind of got by wants to minimize his footprints on the environment. so with a smaller device means less my $200.00 less material. eventually up after the projects life cycle. uh, when it comes to disposing of the product, you will have less weight. in the last 2 years, chiral go, buy has put used to about 150 many computers having just received funding to produce smart devices. kind of go by hopes to scale these production and brick into the market. so from what we've just seen with through, we know that learning science, even as
7:52 am
a child can actually be fun. especially if you loved discovering and experimenting . so after watching and studying abroad attends with me. and also wanted to provide the students with a place where they can discover the walls of science outside the classroom and to build a whole center just for this my name is ridiculous. edward medical doctor and a patient the scientist. and i'm the co founder project inspire and we expect to be the 1st disney land for science in africa. was born in tons of new and better set. i'm actually, and we've 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 things in tv and buy for scholarship. derek entry from empty to good, replace the southern diversity. and so i spent 5 years of my life
7:53 am
when i 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 that is one thing that's really, really was driving me to come back and say ok, i'm going outside to get as much as i can. so that when i come back, come, i've useful as i can be the, the question of the importance of science technology, engineering, mathematics makes them enough for them. context is that science technology engineering. math is the one that has progressed through money to so far, and africa as a continent has a lot of opportunities to caption leapfrog, to you know, success that other countries have. i mean terms, an inborn, raised and educated, at least to my, my 1st degree in medicine and i've gone through public schools in atlanta,
7:54 am
private school. so i have a good taste of both worlds and being in the dashboard are opened up my mind in terms of okay, it could be better and then it became a personal mission to give his experience that i didn't 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 learned is i did not know much about myself and this experience of coming back a change of environment and working to has really talked to me, likes about what i can, the project inspire. we have 3 main major programs. one is for kids who are coming up
7:55 am
for 3 years to 14 years. the 2nd main project is to package these experiences that kids have in projects in science kits. and the 3rd last project is with 2nd risk. ok. and this is what do we put caps every? yeah, let me throw them problems. it's a outbreak of quite or how can you use science, technology and math to solve that in the practical knowledge, to make sure that within the mix, my advice to the dashboard in a confidence and us we didn't have. there's a lot of room for growth and relevance in our content, and we are the only ones that link the cup church should, should do it to come back and grow this content and leap frog. you know, well that's all we have for you today. i hope you enjoy the show unless something new. i know i did. as always feel free to tell us what you think you can find us on youtube, instagram, and don't forget to talk. we can't wait to hear from you as usual. thank you for
