Waad Saftly > Other Awards
On behalf of the L’Oréal Foundation and the National Council for Scientific Research - Lebanon (CNRS-L), I have been selected among the six winners chosen from a pool of scientists coming from five Levant countries to receive the 2021 L’Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science - Young Talents program Award. L’Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science program, honors and empowers Arab female scientists from Levant countries whose findings have contributed to the advancement of scientific knowledge with the firm belief that the “World Needs Science, and Science Needs Women”.
