See the Covid-19 Dashboard by Johns Hopkins University As documented by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering (CSSE) at Johns Hopkins University, Vietnam is ranked #126 out of 185 countries for confirmed Covid-19 cases, with zero fatalities, as of today April, 29th. We are pleased to share some lines from a recent report by the Los Angeles Times. This is a quote from Shashank Bengali, Singapore, taken from the article published on the Los Angeles Times' website. SINGAPORE — Offering a rare and surprising bright spot in the COVID-19 pandemic, Vietnam began easing its nationwide lockdown Thursday following an aggressive containment campaign that has meant few infections and no deaths in an Asian nation initially believed to be at great risk from the coronavirus.(...)And experts caution that the fight isn’t over. Starting Thursday, Vietnam allowed residents across the country to resume small gatherings and restarted buses, taxis and regular domestic flights for the first time in three weeks. But with much...

VNA/VNS Photo Minh Sơn HÀ NỘI — Update: March, 03/2020 - Thousands of students in 59 provinces and cities went back to the school on Monday after nearly six weeks absence due to the outbreak of COVID-19. One of those heading back to class was Nguyễn Thành Long, a second-year student at Hà Nội University of Science and Technology. Arriving at class was that little bit different than before. Long [the student's first name, ed. ] needed to have his temperature checked and had to wash his hands before class started. “I’m very eager to go back to school, I really miss my classmates,” he said. While in theory, an extended break may well be good news, Long found staying at home boring and he was eager to get back to learning. Around 34,000 students went back to Hà Nội University of Science & Technology yesterday. From 6am, staff were on hand to give out masks and hand sanitiser. Đinh...

We are pleased to share here below the transcript of a report by NetViet VTC10 TV channel. https://youtu.be/ihIwkv87Ht4 Speaker In late July 2018, the Vietnamese team attending the 2018 International Biology Olympiad returned to Hanoi as the world's number one. All 4 members of the team won medals, specifically 3 gold medals and 1 silver medal. Particularly, Nguyen Phuong Thao achieved the highest total score among the 261 candidate worldwide, and became the very first Vietnamese student to achieve the highest score at the Inernational Biology Olympiad. In addition, all 5 members of the Vietnamese team attending the 2018 International Physics Olympiad won medals, including 2 gold medals, 2 silver medals and 1 bronze medal. Accordingly, Vietnam made it to the world's top 10 countries with at least 2 gold medals in Physics. Besides, the Vietnamese teams attending the 2018 International Olympiads in Maths, Chemistry and Informatics won at least 1 gold medal each and maintained the achievement of...

Prof. Jean-Marie FRERE is a scientist at the Service de Physique Théorique, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium. His research interests are in Particle Physics and Fundamental Interactions, in particular in some better understanding of the mechanisms at play: unification of the interactions,origin of masscosmological evolution. During his stay in Quy Nhon, he shared with us a simple measurement, as a prelude to an international call for secondary schools (or first years of university students) to measure the horizontal component of the Earth magnetic field, an object which is shared by the whole world population. Measurement of the Earth magnetic field in Quy Nhon Why the grass? Well, it is just to remind us that the experiment needs to be performed outside (to avoid stray currents or steel from the buildings, it is also advisable to be far from power lines). This simple measurement is the prelude to an international call for secondary schools (or first years of university students) to measure the...

This is a news footage from the conference "Reduction of plastic waste to the ocean in Vietnam / Educating the educators approach" by the VTC10 Vietnamese TV channel. The conference was held on August 18th to 20th, 2019, at the ICISE Conference Center, Quy Nhon, Vietnam. [ SPEAKER ] On August 19th, in Quy Nhon City, Binh Dinh Province, the Vietnam Meeting Science Association, the Binh Dinh Provincial People’s Committee and the International Centre for Interdisciplinary Science and Education (ICISE), in collaboration with the Loyola University (USA) and the Global Geographic Society held the opening of the training workshop “Minimizing the harmful effects of plastic waste in the ocean: Educational model for educators”.

International Conference on Medical Physics and School July 29th – August 1st. Cancer is one of the major cause of deaths around the world, it is particularly true for middle to low income countries, where social security and health services are developing or non-existing. Cancer economic impact on these countries is poverty because of the treatment cost or the inability to work.In the frame of growing interest of cancer treatment in Vietnam and South East Asia, the First International Conference on Medical Physics will be held at the ICISE Conference Center. The conference goal is to gather physicists, medical physicists and physicians at all levels to discuss the ways to fight efficiently the disease with an emphasis on radiotherapy and particle therapy. It will be also an opportunity to create networks among the delegates. The conference will be preceded by a school aiming to gather young researchers of the field.
