UoB Hosts a Presentation to Simulate the Human Mind and Therapeutic Plant Extracts
Many professors and students from the University of Bahrain (UoB) and those interested in modern applications in the field of human medicine learned to use the latest findings of modern science in simulating the work of the human mind, in addition to the area of using plant extracts to install and develop medications that treat high blood sugar.
This came in a lecture organized by the Department of Life Sciences under the title “Modern Technologies and Their Applications in the Medical Field”, in cooperation with the University of Calgary in Canada, and under the patronage of the Dean of the College of Science, Prof. Dr. Mohammed Mustafa Al-Hilo, via the MS Teams platform.
The lecture was presented by the Professor of Neurosciences at the Canadian University of Calgary, Dr. Navid Sid, and the Assistant Professor of Zoology in the Department of Biology at UoB, Dr. Qamar Abbas.
As Dr. Sid presented the latest findings of modern science in the applications and manufacture of robots and their use in several areas that contribute to providing services to humans, including simulating the human mind to reach the treatment of multiple diseases such as: tremor and epilepsy, in addition to the manufacture of amputated limbs. Dr. Sid is one of the pioneers in the field of neuroscience, and has won a number of international academic awards, and has published several inventions in the field of neurosciences and the use of the human brain in prestigious scientific journals.
For his part, the Assistant Professor in Zoology at the Department of Life Sciences at the College of Science at UoB, Dr. Qamar Abbas, presented the latest findings in the field of using plant extracts to formulate and develop medications that treat high blood sugar, and the uses of plants in the production of cosmetics used for brightening the skin and controlling the production of skin pigmentations.
The lecture was organized by the Associate Professor of Environment and Molecular Biotechnology at the Department of Life Sciences, Dr. Maysoon Nidham Awadh.
