[SciDev.Net] – Following up on our previous episode that explored the funding disparities faced by women in STEM across Africa, this episode of Africa Science Focus explores the ongoing efforts to foster gender inclusion within science granting councils.In this episode, our reporters Ogechi Ekeanyanwu and Titilope Fadare speak with councils across Africa to understand the steps being taken to build a more inclusive research ecosystem.Thomas Kaluvi, an officer at the National Commission for Science and Technology in Malawi, tells us about an internal review that revealed gender imbalances in team composition in previous research projects, discouraging women from participating.In response, the council introduced a funding quota for women and vulnerable groups to encourage their participation in research projects. Hildegalda Mushi, a senior researcher at the Tanzania Commission for Science and Technology (COSTECH), explains that the council developed a research grant manual that enabled men and women to compete on equal terms.She adds that the commission also launched a special funding call for women-led projects, to encourage more female researchers to take the lead in research activities.In Ghana, Mavis Akuffobea-Essilfie, a senior research scientist at the Science and Technology Policy Research Institute, tells us the council is forming focal groups to monitor progress and promote consistent integration of gender considerations across its research system.To ensure the efforts across councils are sustainable, Lorenza Fluks, senior research specialist at South Africa's Human Sciences Research Council, explains that a gender equality policy framework was developed to guide future work, embedding gender inclusion into funding, collaborations, and research outcomes.-------------------This podcast was supported by the Science Granting Councils Initiative which aims to strengthen the institutional capacities of 18 public science funding agencies in Sub-Saharan Africa.Africa Science Focus is produced by SciDev.Net and distributed in association with your local radio station.

Come explore geoscience innovation and collaboration in Australia with host Anne Thompson. We talk to researchers at three universities and one geologic survey - who are also all involved in the Society of Economic Geologists 2025 Conference in Brisbane, Queensland.Joins us to learn more about advancing science and discovery in Australia!SEG 2025Rick Valenta, chair of SEG 2025 provides a broad view of the work of the SMI (Sustainable Minerals Institute, University of Queensland) and how his role there as Director has influenced the conference. What makes minerals mineable includes all the other aspects that sometimes are neglected, including the impact of geoscience on society, and on individual communities. A recent highlight in Australia is the final release of the Queensland Deposit Atlas, a vast and comprehensive public data set. The Atlas was commissioned and funded by the Queensland Geologic Survey and completed by SMI. Vladimir Lisitsin provides an overview of the data and the many and varied mineral deposits found in Queensland. To get a flavour of what might be in the technical program I chatted with two keynote speakers. Angela Escolme, CODES, University of Tasmania provided insights into her work with a large collaborative project aimed at understanding the overprinted, transition zones in porphyry systems. Lastly, David Giles, University of South Australia delved into how a structural geologist got to be involved in creating the innovative coiled tubing drill rig and what it really means to be truly collaborative. Theme music is Confluence by Eastwindseastwindsmusic.com SEG 2025 is in Brisbane, Australia, September 26-29th.

In this KE Report Company Introduction, I speak with Bob Archer, President and CEO of Pinnacle Silver and Gold (TSX.V: PINN | OTC: PSGCF | Frankfurt: P9J), as the company shifts its primary focus to Mexico with the El Potrero Project, following a strategic option agreement signed in February 2025. Key Highlights from the Interview Strategic Shift to Mexico and Restarting Production Pinnacle Silver and Gold transitioned from its Canadian-focused past to pursue high-grade, near-term production opportunities in Mexico. The flagship El Potrero Project, located in the Topia district of Durango, is a past-producing asset, comprising multiple high-grade underground gold-silver mines. The company is using a cash-flow-first model - similar to Bob's prior success at Great Panther - aiming for production before establishing a large resource. Early Sampling Results Surface and underground channel sampling from the central “Pino Cuata” zone delivered grades as high as 85 g/t gold and 520 g/t silver (individual sample) Production-First Strategy and Flexible Option Deal Structured to earn 50% upon entering production, with the path to 90% and potentially 100% ownership. Targeting small-scale, high-margin production (~100 TPD), reducing permitting complexity and capital needs. Existing mill infrastructure and underground access greatly accelerate timelines and reduce costs. Well-Rounded Team with Strong Local Ties CEO Bob Archer brings 45+ years of experience, including founding Great Panther and multiple mine restarts in Mexico. Key technical advisors include metallurgical engineer David Salari, global geologist Colin Jones, and a Mexican technical team with local experience and community engagement. Strong Start to 2025 and Fully Subscribed Financing Recently closed a $1.3M financing, enabling mapping, LIDAR surveys, and potentially underground drilling as early as September. Pinnacle is also evaluating additional acquisition opportunities to replicate the Great Panther playbook. Red Lake Projects Remain in the Portfolio Two 100%-owned assets in Ontario (including the historic Argosy Mine) are on the back burner but remain part of the long-term growth pipeline.

Dr. Damer is Chief Scientist at BIOTA Institute, UC Santa Cruz. He is an astrobiologist working on the science of life's origins, spacecraft design, psychedelics and genius. Dr. Bruce has spent his life pursuing two great questions: how did life on Earth begin, and how can we give that life (and ourselves) a sustainable pathway into the cosmos? A decade of scientific research with his collaborator Prof. David Deamer at the UC Santa Cruz Department of Biomolecular Engineering resulted in the Hot Spring Hypothesis for an Origin of Life published in the journal Astrobiology in 2019. Dr. Damer also has a long career working with NASA on mission simulation and design and recently co-developed a spacecraft to utilize resources from asteroids. Advancing research into altered-state innovation, Dr. Damer recently cofounded the Center for MINDS. You can keep up with Dr. Bruce Damer on Twitter.“For a geeky scientist like me, it was seeing the origin of life from a different perspective, from the first cell division, which led me to propose the chemical model, which has now gone through the field. That was an insight that was absolutely inaccessible to me without some kind of amplification or exaltation of states of consciousness.” – Dr. Bruce DamerSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A bill expanding veterans' access to non-VA health care is making its way through Congress. The House VA Committee advanced the Veterans' ACCESS Act. The bill would make it easier for veterans covered by the VA to seek heath care in the private sector and would create an online patient self-service scheduling system. Committee Chairman Mike Bost says the bill would help veterans avoid waiting for medical appointments.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
