KUWAIT: The Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences launched the E-Poster Day event on Wednesday. "The establishment of scientific events strengthens the bonds of cooperation between researchers and the exchange of scientific expertise among them, in addition to building a knowledge communication network that deepens their local and international experiences," Director General of KFAS Dr Khaled Al-Fadhel said.

The event aims to review the results of research projects implemented by Kuwaiti researchers and funded by the foundation. "The event aims to highlight high-level research, especially those that deal with topics within the foundation's strategy and related to national priorities such as energy, health, environment, food security, science, engineering and research on tackling the COVID pandemic," Fadhel said.

Dr Khawla Al-Shayji, Deputy Director General of Strategic Programs at KFAS, said: "This scientific event seeks to focus on research related to capacity development and the dissemination of science. It is an opportunity to share important and published research in prestigious scientific journals with the local scientific research community, which contributes to preparing researchers for future international conferences, improving the vision of Kuwaiti research from a global perspective and sharing their experience with Kuwaiti researchers," she added. - KUNA
