krisna samba is the brain behind this lifesaving incubator that he named savant genius. the ugandan scientist is helping this public health facility and central uganda to manage emergencies among newborns. as of today we have managed to save over ninety two babies who looked into the eyes of days actually some of them passed out at some point. so. there is. we have seen that once there is. equipped with more than three hundred seventy sensors the incubator has over two hundred failsafe features it makes oxygen from the atmosphere regulates temperature and monitors the baby's brain. hospitals and uganda imported equipment mainly from the united states and europe but they have very limited budgets and can't meet the demands. procuring medical supplies from abroad has been a point of controversy with public officials often accused of fraud. and the government here hopes that empowering a local innovator likeness some could be a solution and that in the long term buying from home could help to bring the cost of medical equipment down. and that was the week in business. relia

we feel that the incubator partnership should be extended from 3-5 years. that no equity limit should be put on equity businesses and that there should be a pathway to expedite equity businesses through the planning department. it has been over a year and no equity applicants. none of them have been approved. we think it is vital that it gets put forth before increased amendments and increased ownership is put on the financially distressed equity community and we also need the city of san francisco to -- >> thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisors. i am in equity applicant born and raised in san francisco. i qualify because i was arrested for marijuana, and so was my father. i have multiple applications in it right now. i stand firmly against any retroactive up. in my opinion, retail storefronts are the most viable way for an equity applicant to achieve equity with current m.c.d. and in a city like san francisco which has extraordinarily high price per square foot, one bite of the apple just doesn't make sense for vertical integration. it hel

there were not that many incubators in kuwait city hospitals.f you want to go back over the record, you will see how badly the media, how badly the press failed in all of this. "the new yorkaper daily news" had a front page. "they killed a baby." so the media accepted the story without any kind of check. >> if he is a baby killer, well, reasonable people can disagree about how to enforce international law, how to prevent countries from invading other countries, but we have to draw the line at baby killing. after the war, it is not just me, it is john martin who did the really good reporting. he went around to all of these hospitals -- for abc news. did what reporter should do, unfortunately too late. interviewed doctors, staff. nobody could cite one instance of a baby being pulled from incubator by iraqi soldiers and killed. there were babies killed because of neglect and because of the american bombardment of kuwait and iraq, because a lot of hospital personnel fled. there wewere casualties. there were infants who died. but there were no babies

over the next thirty minutes how an innovation incubate a lab in delhi could be instrumental in solving the city's pollution problem. to do with his job to plant trees. and how a school in berkeley is integrating the understanding of biodiversity in every class. but first let's focus on an issue that is considered one of the primary causes for. twenty million tons of agricultural beast is born in the northern states of punjab and haryana every year leading to a severe drop in inequality in the region and affecting over twenty five million people and innovation lab at the indian institute of technology in delhi has found an alternative to prevent burning this waste could this be a game changer let's find out. fourth winter is coming and the farmers of a small village in sunny but just spotty kilometers from new delhi are busy planting new crops. at the end of the paddy harvest every year farmers in the northern states of job often burn the crop stubble that is left behind. only very limited by hand and it would take around eight to ten hours a day and they would be high labor costs the p

incubated at the indian institute of technology in delhi korea labs is working with farmers. and punjab to make crop residue profitable and prevent it from being burnt the startup has developed the technology to manufacture tableware plates and bowls from the crops which in its original form has no market value the end product is eco friendly and cheaper than its plastic counterparts. after collecting those straw from the fields. where it will be washed. that comes along with it will be washed. so far the founders are doing most of the work on their own to clean the rice straw the use the normal washing machine. some chemicals added in order to loosen the fibers. then the rice straw esteemed and turned into a piece. of. the founders called the beast. this is what gets processed into table where. we are interact with farmers from somewhere or. similar. and all of them saying the same thing if there will be. they will do it because they really need to understand they're born in their fields and there's more forced them and their children and then a tree just to. them more than

we don't have the time for waiting for this thing to incubate until tomorrow so so you prepared something for us from your hands we did yeah let me show it real quick here so here you can see before i washed my hands you can see the colony forming units on this and your plates those being thousands and thousands of big tyria that are transient on my my skin flora and then you can also see that after i wash my hands that there fuehrer bacteria that you can actually see on there what about all the good experience on your skin what role do they play in your hands for instance well you have to divide the floor on the skin and on the hand especially into to two separate things the one is the residential floor and the other one being the transition floor and the trends in florence the one that you lose with washing the residential floors the one that you actually keep on the people layers of the skin and those big here actually serve the purpose that they try to find often quotes pathogens that could cause infections through your skin at the hand they do that while just sitting in the news just

if my fingers are full of germs so how do you do this well we have an egg or plate here where we incubate that over night with thirty six degrees and then the next day we'll be able to see how many pathogens actually grew on your on your fingers over where on your fingers before and ok so let's do it. just present here. ok. you could see a very lot of germs so what if i would wash my hands first with the result would be any different well you would definitely see a reduction of the trans in bacteria flora which is the ones that stick to your hands but they don't replicate on your hands but you will lose them after washing your hands but the trick what's the right way to wash your hands to clean the dog throat well it's important that you use the arrived moments before preparing food for example or also when coming home from using the subway from your commute but you can also. have to focus on the time that you actually wash your hands and also the amount of soap that you will use so there's certainly a certain amount of time that you need to wash your hands so this is why research does te
