KAUST Professor Carlos Duarte Wins Prestigious Japan Prize for Pioneering Marine Science Research

Second time a KAUST scientist receives Japan Prize, making it the only university in MENA region to be honoured with global accolade

THUWAL, Saudi Arabia, April 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) is proud to announce that Professor Carlos M. Duarte, Ibn Sina Distinguished Professor of Marine Science, has been awarded the internationally acclaimed Japan Prize for his groundbreaking contributions to marine ecology and his pioneering research on the crucial role of blue carbon ecosystems as a nature-based climate solution. Professor Duarte’s work has transformed the world’s understanding of ocean-based climate solutions and their potential to address global environmental challenges.

The Japan Prize, often referred to as the “Japanese Nobel Prize” and regarded as one of the world’s most prestigious awards in science and technology ––honours exceptional achievements that contribute to global peace and prosperity.

Professor Duarte’s award acknowledges his decades of research on blue carbon ecosystems, including seagrasses, mangroves, and salt marshes. Despite covering only 0.2% of the ocean floor, these ecosystems store approximately 50% of all carbon buried annually in marine sediments. His findings have played a critical role in shaping international strategies for leveraging these ecosystems to combat climate change and restore biodiversity.

Professor Duarte will receive the award in a formal ceremony in Tokyo on April 16th this year, presided over by His Majesty Emperor Naruhito.

“Receiving the Japan Prize is a deeply humbling moment,” said Professor Carlos Duarte. “This honour recognises the extraordinary potential of our oceans in restoring planetary health. I hope this spotlight on blue carbon inspires a new wave of ambition, particularly among younger generations of scientists and leaders, to embrace nature-based solutions and work collaboratively to address the climate crisis”.

“Professor Duarte’s recognition is a testament to KAUST’s commitment to cutting-edge research and to Saudi Arabia’s growing impact in sustainability and environmental science globally,” said Professor Sir Edward Byrne, President of KAUST. “His work exemplifies KAUST’s role in advancing Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and the Saudi Green Initiative, driving innovation in marine conservation, climate innovation, and scientific leadership, both regionally and internationally.”

Beyond his research, Professor Duarte has been instrumental in advising Saudi Arabia on its national marine conservation efforts and national sustainability strategies, ocean stewardship. He has also played a pivotal role in shaping global ocean policy, serving as the Executive Director of the G20 Backed Coral Research & Development Accelerator Platform (CORDAP), which aims to fast-track innovation in coral reef restoration around the world. His expertise continues to influence climate negotiations and marine conservation frameworks worldwide.

Duarte is the second person from KAUST to win the prize. In 2013, a former Vice President of Research, Jean M. J. Fréchet, won for outstanding achievement in the development of chemically amplified resist polymer materials for innovative semiconductor manufacturing process.

Bringing together leading technology and service providers, CeMAT Southeast Asia will offer a one-stop hub for the latest in intralogistics, robotics and automation, warehousing, supply chain management, and materials handling. Attendees can expect cutting-edge product demonstrations, industry-leading solutions, and deep dives into best practices across key sectors, including e-commerce, manufacturing, food industry, pharmaceutical, FMCG, supply chain management and retail.

Organised by Hannover Fairs Asia Pacific, a subsidiary of Deutsche Messe, the event is the premier platform for industry professionals to explore the latest innovations shaping the warehouse of the future.

Events like CeMAT Southeast Asia are more critical than ever providing a platform for businesses to discover resilient, future-ready solutions. Singapore’s strategic role as a logistics hub makes it the ideal host and we are especially excited to welcome more participation from Malaysia and across the region.

The 8th China EdFest Gives Parents a Powerful Voice

SHANGHAI, April 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The 8th China Festival of Education, hosted by Wellington College China, brought together over 70 speakers and more than 800 attendees from around the world. Held on Saturday 12 April at Wellington College International Shanghai, thought leaders in academia, mental health, technology, finance and business discussed the future of education and how it will adapt in the face of rapid societal change. It was a day of insightful workshops and inspiring talks that explored education through the lenses of technology, family-school collaboration, environmentalism and sustainability, wellbeing and so much more.

“Change is the only constant,” said Julian Jeffrey, Wellington College China’s Chief Executive Master, “and with each passing day, the pace of that change only seems to accelerate. By remaining vigilant, informed and flexible we can navigate the challenges and the opportunities these changes present. That’s why events like the Festival of Education are so vital. The discussions we have at EdFest inspire fresh thinking. They equip us with the tools we need to adapt, grow and ensure that our education system keeps pace with the ever-evolving needs of our young learners.”

A Platform for Parents’ Voices

A strong partnership with parents is essential to any successful school. With that in mind, the festival debuted its first-ever parent panel discussions. Many Wellington College China parents are leaders in academics, finance, biotech, AI and robotics, and they have a unique perspective on how we can equip our children for an increasingly complex future. The day was therefore punctuated with panels featuring parent representatives from around the Wellington College China group. They discussed a host of salient issues around preparing our children for the revolutionary technological changes they will likely face in the future.

The Transformative Power of AI in Education

AI and its profound implications for education was a key theme of the day. Yong Zhao, Professor at the University of Kansas and the Melbourne Graduate School of Education, for instance, delivered a keynote address emphasising the importance of leveraging AI’s capabilities while at the same time developing the uniquely human skills that machines struggle to replicate.

Dr Max Zhou, Co-Founder and CEO of DexRobot and a Hiba Academy Nantong parent, led a thought-provoking discussion titled ‘Raising our Children in an AI+Robot World: Should They Be Workers, Players or Shapers?’. In it, he examined how AI is reshaping the future of work and the skills children will need to thrive.

Ryan Lu, Director of IT at Wellington College China, provided an institutional perspective with ‘WCC AI Space: The Evolution of AI at Wellington College China’, showcasing how they are integrating the technology to enhance the infrastructure and curriculum at all Wellington College China schools.

Alex Johnson, Chief Product Officer at UnconstrainED, shared how to personalise learning and make teaching more efficient in his session titled ‘Using AI to Transform Your Teaching’. Moreover, Gregor Markovic, Director of Educational Technology at Wellington College Tianjin, explored ‘Going Beyond General AI Tools for Education’, offering strategies for leveraging advanced AI technologies to enhance classroom practices. 

Attendants walked away with several practical approaches to integrating AI into their daily work without sacrificing important soft skills like critical thinking, creativity and emotional intelligence. 

Exploring Education From Every Angle

Beyond AI, the festival featured a wide range of sessions that tackled pressing issues in education. 

Professor Zhou Jiaxian, Founder of the Research Center for Educational Neuroscience at East China Normal University, discussed why it is important that parents play an active role in their children’s education with a talk titled ‘Evidence-Based Family-School Cooperation from Educational Neuroscience Research’.

Meanwhile, Joanne Zhang, Mental Health Counsellor at ELG, delivered a talk called ‘Compassionate Conversations: Talking to Parents About Seeking Support for Their Child’. She offered several practical strategies for building supportive environments that promote emotional wellbeing.

Alex Aristizabal, Director of Teaching and Learning at YK Pao School, explored how leadership drives innovation and continuous improvement in education with ‘High-Impact Professional Development: A Collaborative Approach’. Tom Sherrington, Education Consultant and co-author of the book Teaching Walkthrus, shared best practices and practical techniques in ‘The Elements of an Effective Coaching Programme’.

Dr Helen Wright, an international education advisor, led a session on ‘The Globally Competent School: Why, What and How?’ that examined how schools can equip pupils with the skills and mindset they need to thrive in an interconnected world.

Dan McCloy, Head of Curriculum at Green School Bali, led a compelling discussion on ‘Experiential Learning Through Regenerative Design’ that showcased how schools can integrate sustainability into their curricula. This naturally dovetailed with ‘Creating Curriculum on the Front Lines of Climate Change’, a talk about practical strategies for teaching environmental stewardship by Abby MacPhail, IB Geography and History Teacher at the United Nations International School

The Art and Science of Teaching & Educating for Wisdom and Versatility

Several Wellington College China teachers weighed in on innovative teaching approaches. Dr Tania Blatti, Head of Upper Primary at Wellington College International Shanghai, focused on strategies for creating impactful and enduring learning experiences with ‘Making Learning Last’. Additionally, Rob Spillane and Jingwen Chen, Assistant Heads of Hiba Academy Shanghai (Nursery), led a discussion on techniques for ‘Developing Oracy to Create Bilingual Language Rich Classrooms’. 

Between the workshops and panel discussions, attendees had the opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals. They were also treated to spectacular dance and music showcases by talented Wellington College International Shanghai pupils. In the spirit of the times, there was even some entertainment provided by a troupe of state-of-the-art robots.

Jeremy Birk, Director of EdFest, said, “We look forward to expanding the reach and impact of The Bridge and Festival of Education through a rich, year-round workshop series featuring global thought-leaders across a range of inspiring and future-focused topics.”

The 8th China EdFest was a resounding success that highlighted the power of collaboration and the transformative potential of education. But this event is just the beginning. EdFest is part of a global mission to build a connected community of lifelong learners, thinkers and innovators. In the coming year, schools within the Wellington College Education group will be hosting EdFests around the world—from China to the UK, the US and Thailand. By bringing together all stakeholders in education—teachers, parents, business owners and more—we can find new ways to equip the next generation with the skills they need to thrive in the world.

Fullerton Health Indonesia Launches First Executive Health Screening Centre Offering Exclusive, Private and Customised Screening in Jakarta

JAKARTA, Indonesia, April 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Fullerton Health Indonesia today officially launched its first Executive Health Screening Centre (EHS) in Jakarta, the fifth such centre in the Fullerton Health Group’s executive health screening portfolio across Asia. The 700-square metre centre on the ground floor of Mandiri Inhealth Tower in Mega Kuningan offers a premium experience, high standard of care, and a tailored approach to screening that eliminates unnecessary tests and examinations, distinguishing the centre from other providers.

The EHS centre offers customised screening that eliminates unnecessary tests and examinations. This represents a competitive alternative to overly comprehensive screening plans. It also represents an upgrade for those accustomed to basic clinic check-ups. Customers can select from three different tiers of screening and opt for add-on tests according to their risk profile, lifestyle, and concerns. These include, but are not limited to, ultrasounds, mammograms, X-rays, spirometry, hormone panels and cancer marker panels. Please refer to Annex A for the different screening plans available.

Each customer will have their screening results reviewed by a medical doctor. They will receive a detailed medical report in the same format as those from Fullerton Health’s EHS centres in Singapore and the Philippines. Consultation with a nutritionist is provided in higher-tier packages and wellness services in weight management, physiotherapy, and mental health are also available on-site if required.

A concierge service will assist with making any necessary follow-up appointments, including referrals to panel providers within Fullerton Health’s network in Indonesia or to panel providers in Singapore. This will enable customers to seamlessly seek consultation at home or abroad. Future enhancements to the service include deploying qualified nurses as health ambassadors to guide customers on next steps after health screening is completed, such as follow-up tests or lifestyle changes.

“Fullerton Health Indonesia is launching the new Executive Health Screening centre at a time when Indonesians are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of healthy living and the role of health screening in preventing disease and early detection. Our centre offers those who prefer a more bespoke screening experience a service that is truly tailored to their needs and preferences,” said Mr Alain Durand, Managing Director, Fullerton Health Indonesia.

“Health screening is a key priority for Fullerton Health as part of our commitment to preventive care and accessible healthcare across Asia. With chronic diseases on the rise and people living longer, it is more important than ever to provide seamless access to screening and care within and across borders. We’re proud to launch this EHS centre as the newest flagship in our Group’s portfolio and look forward to supporting Indonesians in taking charge of their health,” said Ho Kuen Loon, Group Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director, Fullerton Health.

The EHS centre will support companies in promoting healthier living to their employees by conducting wellness talks and events that can be customised to the company’s preferences, in a purpose-built event space on its premises. Employees can participate in these events and attend health screening in a single location. Fullerton Health expects that this service will appeal to companies such as multinational corporations, which tend to have employees who are accustomed to higher standards of care.

The centre is designed to maximise comfort and privacy with eight health screening pods and four private suites. Customers may choose to undergo screening individually, or in groups of up to three people for a more social visit. The centre is located at Mandiri Inhealth Tower, Ground Floor. Jl Prof DR Satrio Kav. E-IV No.6 Jakarta Selatan.
