Accessible Science And Collaboration Are Critical Factors For Advancing Sustainable Development Goals, Global Academic Leaders Concurred

Elsevier

Joint seminar organized by the Ministry of Education and Elsevier ahead of the 4th G20 Education Working Group meeting highlights India’s potential and role as a centre of research excellence According to data from Elsevier – a global leader in evidence-based clinical practice content, research publishing and information analytics – India’s scholarly output has been steadily increasing, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate of around 11% over the past 20 years and has also now moved to becoming the third largest producer of scientific research, overtaking the UK in 2022. The country also boasts achievements in academic quality where its Field Weighted Citation Impact (an international measure of research quality) has improved from 0.85 in 2019 to 1.05 in 2021, putting India above the global average for publication citations. In addition, the Indian government’s focus on driving qualitative research to strengthen the country's competitiveness in global research and innovation has resulted in India achieving its 40th ranking in WIPO’s Global Innovation Index 2022. These were amongst some of India’s academic achievements that were spotlighted at a seminar jointly organized by India’s Ministry of Education in partnership with Elsevier as a precursor discussion to the 4th G20 Education Working Group meeting around the topic of “Accessible science: fostering collaboration” which took place on 16 June 2023. The seminar convened stakeholders from the G20 group of nations across the scientific community to discuss best practices for accessible science, how accessible science can be applied across individual nations with differing local capacities, and ways to utilize science practices to support global progress. Hon’ble MoS Shri Dr. Subhas Sarkar, Ministry of Education, while inaugurating the event, stated: “Guided by inclusivity and innovation, we seek to strengthen ties with higher education institutions worldwide. Through robust partnerships, joint research endeavors, and shared knowledge, we aspire to create a vibrant ecosystem that transcends borders. India's G20 Presidency recognizes the importance of accessible science in addressing global challenges and fostering sustainable development. Openness, transparency, and inclusivity are crucial to trust and integrity in scientific approaches. By embracing Open Science, we can ensure data sharing, research reproducibility, and robust societal impacts. Together through partnerships, we will navigate uncharted waters and create a brighter future for all through scientific innovation.” During his keynote address, Shri K. Sanjay Murthy, Secretary Higher Education, Ministry of Education, GOI, said: “Cooperation and an exchange of knowledge are key to build a thriving ecosystem that cuts across national boundaries and addresses global challenges. We understand that there is a need to enhance our research output and hence seek pathways to foster collaborations among universities and academic institutions. Let us strive to provide solutions for global challenges and achieve our sustainable development goals, leaving a visible impact on the richness of our collaborative endeavours.” “India’s stellar performance in scientific research is intrinsically tied to the local and global trends that we have seen towards accessible science,” said Dr. Nick Fowler, Chief Academic Officer at Elsevier and Chair of The International Association of STM Publishers, which represents over 140 global academic publishers. “As scientific findings become more accessible, other researchers around the world can use and build on the findings, thereby enhancing academic quality.” Dr. Fowler added: “Academic papers developed via international collaborations in India have been cited twice as often as those with no international collaboration, and India would do well in optimizing opportunities to expand its global collaborations, particularly with G20 countries.” At the seminar, highlights from an exclusive Elsevier report commissioned by The Ministry of Education, Fostering collaboration: a study of scientific publications with authors in G20 countries, was also presented by the report’s author, Dr. Carlos Henrique de Brito Cruz, Senior Vice President at Elsevier and Professor Emeritus, State University of Campinas. "The research landscape in the world is changing. Thirty years ago, it was the rich countries of the Global North that conducted research. Now, there is a change, and countries from the Global South are becoming more and more relevant in research and science,” said Dr. de Brito Cruz. “India has brought so many collaborations and one of the best things they’re doing in the growth of scientific production is Sustainable Development Goal #2, which is related to reducing hunger in the world, where the scientific production of India is going up 25 percent a year. Soon, India will have a mass of knowledge that will become a reference for every other country in the world." For the main discussion session, several esteemed panelists joined us and shared their insights on ways to foster collaboration between G20 countries through accessible multi-lingual regional resources and multi-lateral open facilities; and various approaches to enhance academic interactions to meet UN SDGs. Panelists at the session included Prof. S. K. Satheesh (IISc Bengaluru and Chief Editor of Current Science (Indian Academy of Sciences); Mr. Piers Purdy (Head of G20, Research and Innovation); Mr. Kaspar Meyer (Head of S&T, German Embassy in India; Mr. Carlos Henrique de Brito Cruz (SVP, Research Networks, Elsevier, Professor Emeritus, of Campinas, Unicamp, Brazil); Prof. Amit Agarwal (Dean, International Relations, IIT Bombay); Mr. Mudit Narain (Formerly Program Director at the Atal Innovation Mission, NITI Aayog and Director, Foundation for Advancing S&T); and Dr. Ravindra Utgikar (Vice President Corporate Strategy & Marketing at Praj Industries Ltd, Pune). This session was chaired by Prof. Sunil S Bhagwat (Director, IISER Pune) and Co-chaired by Dr Ayesha Chaudhary (Advisor, Stanford University, Stanford Byers Center for Bio-design, India program; Consultant, World Bank and Adjunct Faculty, IIT Jodhpur). A panel discussion moderated by Dr. Nagaraj Balasubramanian (Associate Professor, IISER Pune) with the above participants was held where aspects related to growth in capacity in terms of infrastructure and human resource were discussed along with inputs from the audience. The importance of interactions among researchers at the global level and various models to achieve this was discussed in this session. --- About Elsevier As a global leader in information and analytics, Elsevier helps researchers and healthcare professionals advance science and improve health outcomes for the benefit of society.

Doceree has been relentlessly working to identify issues facing the pharma messaging ecosystem and close the gaps through its AI-enabled category-centric technologies that can precisely target HCPs and enable marketers to activate high-performing campaigns. “We are thrilled to launch our new DSP that creates unprecedented HCP personalization and customization for media agencies.

There is no ‘one solution fits all’ and the DSP uniquely addresses the gaps, curating an agency-specific platform that aligns with each agency’s specific needs. This first-of-its-kind approach to engaging HCPs is exciting and offers plenty of opportunities for agencies to run successful and scalable HCP campaigns for their healthcare clients,” said Jeffrey D. Erb, Chief Media Officer, Fishawack Health.

Cyberattacks And Supply Chain Disruptions Put Focus On FiscalNote’s (NYSE: NOTE) Dragonfly Security Intelligence To Help Leading Organizations Build Resilience Through Intelligence

Benzinga

By Jad Malaeb, Benzinga In today's interconnected world, businesses face various geopolitical risks that can significantly impact their operations and bottom line. The risks are plentiful and various, but some have taken a specific spotlight in light of recent trends. Cybercrime, for example, proliferated during the COVID-19 pandemic, posing extreme risks to government entities, corporations and individuals, and the trend looks to be continuing in 2023. The COVID-19 pandemic also highlighted the vulnerability of global supply chains, with lockdowns and travel restrictions causing disruptions that closed down thousands of businesses and brought thousands of others to the brink of disaster. Current geopolitical risks extend beyond these two issues. Rising tensions between the East and West initiated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have spurred murmurs of a potential third World War. Trade sanctions on Russia’s allies have placed pressure on the price of commodities, causing massive fluctuations in the price of oil and gas in Europe. Tensions have even migrated further East toward China and Taiwan which have created risks to global security. Geopolitical risks can pose some of the largest threats to governments and businesses. To mitigate these risks, private and public organizations need access to real-time intelligence and analysis that can help them anticipate and respond to potential threats. The recent acquisition of Dragonfly Eye by FiscalNote Holdings Inc. (NYSE: NOTE), a technology company specializing in AI-driven global policy and market intelligence solutions, provides a platform that can help businesses and governments achieve this goal. Dragonfly Eye: An Intelligence Solution To Geopolitical Risks Dragonfly Eye is a UK-based security and geopolitical intelligence provider offering a range of advisory services to help organizations manage and respond to security and political risks. They provide real-time mission-critical intelligence to security, crisis management and risk professionals across multinational companies, financial institutions, public sector entities and NGOs. Their flagship Security Intelligence and Analysis Service (SIAS) platform is used by nearly half of the top 30 companies in the FTSE-500 and 90% of the world’s top 11 banks. Their services are divided into three categories: Security Risk, Political Risk, and Systems and Solutions, which include management consulting for corporate security and risk intelligence. Dragonfly’s services help organizations manage geopolitical risks such as supply chain issues and foreign cyber attacks by providing early warning detection and forecasting to anticipate threats, risk rating systems around potential major disruptions, and access to critical analysts and embedded intelligence. Their intelligence-led security support and consultative political risk management services for investors in emerging markets are designed to help security decision-makers evaluate and respond to threats and risks. With the acquisition of Dragonfly, FiscalNote becomes a significantly enhanced platform to provide businesses with solutions to supply chain disruptions, cybersecurity attacks and other geopolitical risks.

$1.1 Trillion Was Invested In The Transition To Clean Energy In 2022 – This Company Reports Capitalizing On The Trend With Its First-In-Class Thematic ETFs

Benzinga

Thematic exchange-traded funds (ETFs) take advantage of long-term market trends, and the portfolios for these funds are often involved in industry-shaping innovations. At the start of 2023, thematic ETFs totaled $84.6 billion in assets under management (AUM). An example of a company leading the charge in clean energy market-focused ETFs is Sprott Asset Management, a subsidiary of Sprott Inc. (TSX: SII) and a global asset manager with differentiated and real asset portfolios. Sprott Asset Management has a first-mover advantage, with the only ETF to offer pure-play exposure to a wide variety of critical minerals and mining equities. Critical minerals are the natural materials required for the generation, transmission and storage of clean energy. As low carbon and clean energy infrastructure is adopted across the globe, the need for critical minerals, such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and graphite, is increasing rapidly. By 2040, one model predicts that demand for copper and rare earth elements will increase by 40%, while nickel and cobalt demand will increase by 70%, and lithium by almost 90%. A record-breaking $1.1 trillion was invested globally into low carbon energy transition in 2022, in part to meet the demand for critical minerals. However, it is estimated that the average needs to be about quadruple what is being spent now to meet net-zero targets. Sprott’s Pure-Play Thematic ETFs Sprott Inc. was founded in 1981 and has spent decades establishing itself as a global investment leader in precious metals and energy transition minerals. It has primarily been involved in upstream mineral companies, such as mining and development companies. Sprott Asset Management has been able to leverage its parent company’s network of industry relationships. Its Energy Transition Materials ETF (NASDAQ: SETM) is unique because it provides pure-play access to companies at the heart of the clean energy transition. Each security undergoes a process of rigorous selection so that every company in the portfolio is hand-picked from a wide range of possible assets. As part of the index construction process, the company looks at the 90,000+ companies with global primary security equities. It then applies a series of screening criteria, using competitive analysis and in-house research, to select the top companies for investment. It also conducts periodical rebalancing based on its weight criteria. Because of Sprott’s extensive background in the mining industry, the Energy Transition Materials ETF can target companies upstream in the mining and material acquisition process. These companies are more likely than downstream companies to be recipients of the increased global funding in the clean energy transition, according to the company. Sprott Asset Management offers a range of other ETFs in the critical minerals sector. These include its Lithium Miners ETF (NASDAQ: LITP), Junior Copper Miners ETF (NASDAQ: COPJ), Uranium Miners ETF (NYSE Arca: URNM), and Junior Uranium Miners ETF (NASDAQ: URNJ), and its Nickel Miners ETF (NASDAQ: NIKL).
