November 1967 in Mekka) ist eine saudi-arabische Pharmakologin und Biotechnologie-Expertin. Seit 2012 ist sie Goodwill-Botschafterin der UNESCO und wurde im selben Jahr als eine der zehn einflussreichsten Frauen der arabischen Welt ausgezeichnet.<\/p> <p>Mit 14 Jahren zog Sindi nach England, wo sie 1995 am King's College London in Pharmakologie abschloss. 2001 promovierte sie in Biotechnologie am Newnham College, Cambridge. Zudem ist sie Gastwissenschaftlerin an der Harvard University und erhielt PopTech-Stipendien f\u00fcr ihre Beitr\u00e4ge zur Wissenschaft und sozialen Innovation.<\/p> <p>Sindi ist Mitbegr\u00fcnderin von Diagnostics For All, einem Projekt, das kosteng\u00fcnstige Diagnosewerkzeuge entwickelt, um die Patientenversorgung au\u00dferhalb medizinischer Infrastrukturen zu verbessern. Als Gr\u00fcnderin und CEO des i2 Instituts f\u00f6rdert sie junge Forscher*innen und sensibilisiert Frauen in der arabischen Welt f\u00fcr naturwissenschaftliche Themen.<br \/>Sie wurde mit dem Mekkah Al Mukaramah-Preis f\u00fcr wissenschaftliche Innovation ausgezeichnet und von National Geographic als Emerging Explorer geehrt. 2012 ernannte Irina Bokowa sie zur ehrenamtlichen UNESCO-Botschafterin f\u00fcr Wissenschaft. 2014 erhielt sie von der Clinton Foundation eine Auszeichnung f\u00fcr Leadership in Civil Society.<\/p>\n<h2>Sichtbarkeit<\/h2> <p>Spannend. Hayat Sindi hatte eine enorme Sichtbarkeit zwischen 2012 und 2014 mit Auftritten bei TedXTalks und PopTech. Wir haben noch eine Videoaufnahme von Ihr zur Zeit der Corona-Pandemie gefunden. Jedoch konnten wir keine Hinweise zu aktuellen Aktivit\u00e4ten finden, auch ihr Institut zur F\u00f6rderung von jungen Forschenden und Erfindern scheint nicht mehr aktiv zu sein.\u00a0<\/p> <p>Wer mehr \u00fcber Hayat Sindi und ihre Unternehmungen in heutiger Zeit wei\u00df, sagt uns gerne Bescheid.\u00a0<\/p> <p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Links<\/h2>\n\n<p>Hayat Sindi wurde uns mehrfach bei unserer Aktion \"Wir suchen 100 coole Frauen und M\u00e4dchen in der Wissenschaft \u2013 die heute aktiv sind\" eingereicht. Wir hatten diese Aktion gestartet, weil uns aufgefallen war, dass wir weniger \"lebende, coole Wissenschaftlerinnen\" kennen als wir dachten.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>Foto: Collage Midjourney und Portraitfoto von Kris Kr\u00fcg<\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8316","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8316"}],"version-history":[{"count":41,"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8316\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9597,"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8316\/revisions\/9597"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8528"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8316"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8316"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mint-heldinnen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
