As part of its work, which begins in Dubai during the period 12-14 February, the summit will host a distinguished elite of world scientists who have won the Nobel Prize in various scientific disciplines, in a precedent that adds an important new dimension to the World Government Summit, which confirms the exceptional role that the World Government Summit plays in Bringing together minds, decision makers and all influencers to find innovative, knowledge-based solutions to improve the lives of communities and accelerate opportunities for human progress.
By hosting this elite group of distinguished scientists globally, the summit seeks to consolidate its role as a platform that connects scientists and people of mind with decision-making centers, and to enhance communication between scientists and governments, as well as the private sector and influencers in various fields, in order to provide a significant contribution to everyone in making science-based decisions. And knowledge, which contributes to creating and accelerating positive changes in global societies and economies.
The World Government Summit will host in special sessions: Sir Richard John Roberts, Nobel Prize winner in Physiology or Medicine, Professor Aaron Chichanover, Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry, Professor Randy Schekman, Nobel Prize winner in Physiology or Medicine, and Professor Serge Harouch, Nobel Prize winner in Physics. , Professor Roger Kornberg, Nobel Prize Winner in Chemistry, and Professor Michael Levitt, Nobel Prize Winner in Chemistry.
Share knowledge
This hosting provides a valuable opportunity for governments and attendees at the summit to learn about the scientific visions of the best minds in the world, their outlook on the future, and what human development requires in terms of adopting and accelerating positive practices in various fields, as this distinguished elite of the world’s scientists shares knowledge with everyone within the agenda of the World Government Summit. Which has become the largest international brainstorming gathering at all levels, hosted by the UAE annually to stimulate confrontation of the challenges of the present and future.
Hosting this elite of scholars, through the stories of inspiration it provides, also supports the UAE’s trends in establishing a unique development model based on knowledge, its strategies aimed at creating a national elite of scholars, thinkers, and minds in various fields, and what it seeks through its specific initiatives to enhance this. Going Arab as part of its leadership’s tireless efforts to restore Arab-Islamic civilization and its knowledge contributions to the good of humanity.
Inspiring discoveries
Sir Richard John Roberts, one of the elite guests of the summit, is a British scientist in the field of biochemistry and molecular biology. He won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1993, sharing it with Philip Alan Sharp, for the discovery of introns in DNA and the mechanism of gene splicing. He currently works in laboratories. New England Bio.
Professor Aaron Chichanover is a biologist who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for describing how cells break down and recycle proteins using ubiquitin.
Professor Randy Schekman is an American cell biologist at the University of California, Berkeley, former editor-in-chief of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and former editor of the Journal of Cell Biology and Developmental Biology. In 2011, he was appointed editor of eLife, a prestigious open access journal published by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, the Max Planck Society, and the Wellcome Trust published in 2012. He was also elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1992. In 2013, he shared Schekman won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with James Rothman and Thomas Sudoff for the pioneering discovery of the vesicular transport system across the cell membrane.
Professor Serge Harouch is a French physicist who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2012, along with David Wineland, for their pioneering experimental methods regarding measuring and manipulating individual quantum systems, in a study of light particles known as photons. This achievement, in addition to other work, contributed to the development of laser spectroscopy. Since 2001, Harouch has been a professor at the College of France and heads the Chair of Quantum Physics.
Professor Roger Kornberg is an American biochemist and professor of structural biology at Stanford University School of Medicine. Kornberg won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2006 for his studies on the process of copying genetic information from DNA to RNA, “the molecular basis of copying in eukaryotes.”
Professor Michael Levitt, who was born in South Africa, is a biophysicist and professor of structural biology at Stanford University, and has held this position since 1987. Professor Levitt won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2013, in partnership with Martin Karplus and Aryeh Worschel, for “Developing Multiscale models of complex chemical systems.
