Geneva: A number of
Muslim inventors from around the Muslim world turned up to showcase
their creations in the International Exhibition of Inventions held at
Geneva, Switzerland. This was one of the world's largest exhibitions
devoted to innovation with some 60,000 visitors. It was gratifying to
see so many Muslim countries including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Oman,
Iran, Indonesia and Malaysia participate and send their mostly young
inventors, some of them women.
The most notable in
this grand event of scientific inventions was that even Saudi women
scientists showcased their creativity. It was very heartening to see a
Saudi woman scientist win three gold medals at the Geneva International
Exhibition for Inventors, which is a truly outstanding achievement and
should be emulated by Muslim women in other Islamic countries.
Ghaida Al-Sulami,
a lecturer at the College of Nursing in Umm Al Qura University won the
medals in a joint collaboration with a team from King Abdullah Medical
City (KAMC). Her project was concerned with the invention of an
electronic screen for communicating with patients in intensive care
units (ICUs). Al-Sulami also won two gold medals from the Portuguese and
Roman Wings. She was overwhelmed with joy
