Dear Colleagues, Partners, and Friends,
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 31st National Science and Technology Conference, hosted by the Scientific Research Council (SRC) of Jamaica. This year’s conference, themed ‘Harmony in Innovation: Unleashing the Power of Nuclear Applications for Sustainable Development,’ promises to be an extraordinary gathering of minds dedicated to advancing the frontiers of science and technology.
As we converge here at the Jamaica Conference Centre, Downtown Kingston, from October 29 to November 1, 2024, we are presented with a unique opportunity to explore the transformative potential of nuclear applications in agriculture, water, medicine, energy, and beyond. Our conference will bring together experts, practitioners, policymakers, and innovators from across the globe to share knowledge, forge new collaborations, and inspire innovative solutions that address some of the most pressing challenges of our time.
The SRC is proud to be at the forefront of this important dialogue, and we are thrilled to be working in cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the International Centre of Nuclear and Environmental Sciences (ICENS) and the Hazadous Substance Regulatory Authority (HSRA) to make this event truly impactful. We have also partnered with the Association of General Practitioners of Jamaica to offer Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits, ensuring that our discussions not only enrich our understanding but also contribute to the professional growth of our attendees.
I extend a warm welcome to all participants, speakers, and sponsors. Your presence here underscores our collective commitment to harnessing the power of science and technology for sustainable development. I encourage you to take full advantage of the diverse sessions, networking opportunities, and knowledge-sharing platforms that this conference offers.
Thank you for joining us in what I am confident will be an inspiring, enlightening, and productive event. Together, let us continue to innovate, collaborate, and lead the way towards a sustainable future.
Welcome to the SRC 31st National Science and Technology Conference!
