Dr. Collins Obuah a lecturer at the department of chemistry has been selected to participate in the 67th Lindau Nobel Laureate meeting for 2017 in Lindau, Germany. Dr. Obuah’s selection was based on a competitive selection and nomination by the African Academy of Science to the Council for the Lindau Nobel Laureate meetings. His nomination was further reviewed by the scientific panel of the Council for the Lindau Nobel Laureate meetings and he is among 40 young scientists for this year’s meeting.
This year Lindau Nobel Laureate meeting is dedicated to the field of chemistry. Only 400 most qualified undergraduates, PhD students, post-doctoral researchers and young scientists across the world were given the opportunity to enrich and share the unique atmosphere of the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings.
30-40 Nobel Laureates will convene at Lindau to meet the next generation of leading scientists. The Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings will foster the exchange among scientists of different generations, cultures, and disciplines.
Since their beginnings in 1951, the Lindau Meetings have evolved into a unique international forum for scientific exchange. It was the two Lindau physicians Franz Karl Hein and Gustav Wilhelm Parade who approached Count Lennart Bernadotte af Wisborg of nearby Mainau Island to jointly develop and implement the idea that marked the start of a long and continuing history.
