Nobel Prize laureate Emmanuelle Charpentier talks with students. United by Science event

United by Science brought science students from throughout Latin America and the Caribbean into conversation with Nobel Prize laureates to explore how science and scientists can most effectively make a positive impact on society.
The region does not lack challenges - climate change, inequality, political instability, as well as the devastation caused by Covid-19. By bringing together young people we aim to inspire the next generation of scientists to work together, both amongst themselves and together with the rest of society, to use science to tackle the big challenges ahead.
Eighty undergraduate and graduate students representing almost every country in the region were invited to focus on issues that include the responsibilities of the scientist, the power of collaboration, strategies for building bridges with policy makers and society in general, and the wider societal implications of all these themes.
Participating speakers included Elizabeth Blackburn, 2009 Nobel Prize laureate in physiology or medicine; Emmanuelle Charpentier, 2020 Nobel Prize laureate in chemistry; Bernard Feringa, 2016 Nobel Prize laureate in chemistry; May-Britt Moser, 2014 Nobel Prize laureate in physiology or medicine and Saul Perlmutter, 2011 Nobel Prize laureate in physics.
The Nobel Prize Dialogue “United by Science” is supported by Nobel International Partners 3M, ABB, Capgemini, Ericsson and Scania.

I'm going to be a brilliant scientist and win the Nobel prize someday.

Great learning

[@priyangshubagchi8778]

Yes you will... Best of luck 😇😇😇😇😇😇

I wanna be the next Nobel laureate ❤❤

Great to see this idea of bringing Noble Laureates to meet Latino American and Caribbean Science 🧬 students materialize virtually, if not in person, due to the pandemic. I was privileged to suggest this idea in Berlin on November 4-11, 2019 to celebrate 30 years of falling walls during Berlin Science Week. NOBLE LAUREATE DIALOGUES SESSION.

As charming, as she is intelligent, as she is beautiful -- Nobel Prize laureate Emmanuelle Charpentier.

It was an AMAZING experience! Thank you for making this possible!

I admire Emmanuelle and these students are so lucky 😊😊❤

As an undergraduate student too how can I get this opportunity to chat live and ask my questions with any of the most important guests in the future

[@ralvarez114]

Great questions and even better & professionally illuminating answers. Coming from provincial Mexico 🇲🇽 in 1980, to Texas for my PhD, myself (ÁGORA Scientific Services, LLC), I identify most of the dilemmas faced by Talented Latino American Young Scientists, as expressed in this outstanding virtual session, except that the Mexican Government did in fact, (CONACYT) supported me early on without strings attached. My career would have been impossible without the Mexican education system and scholarship support.

Possibilities are many but nothing is happening - so true of present world

Excellence

39.00 There are so many good scholarships which is fully funded outside of Brazil. She can do some jobs in her country and try aboard. If she has the urge to really become a scientist then she will find a way after this..
