World Science Day 2020 – The Child Prodigies In The Field Of Science

“Science is the process that takes us from confusion to understanding in a manner that’s precise, predictive and reliable.” – Brian Greene.

World Science Day 2020 : Science plays a significant role in society. So it is essential to engage more and more people in debates on emerging scientific issues. The World Science Day for Peace and Development is celebrated every year on 10 November. The motive behind celebrating the international science day is to highlight the importance of science in our daily lives. It aims to ensure that all the people have information about developments in science. It also underlines the role of scientists in broadening our understanding and making our societies more sustainable. 

We all have heard about the numbers of scientists who keep inventing new things and exploring the existing ones. Usually, these scientists are not 10-15 years old; they do it after a certain age. But, can you believe that some kids who are still in school are doing successful inventions? Let’s get to know about the child prodigies who are doing remarkable things in the field of science on World Science Day.

1. Aswatha Biju

Aswatha Biju is a budding and young palaeontologist from India. She has a collection of a whopping 114 fossil specimens, including many like vertebrates, invertebrates, chordates & flora. The young palaeontologist has collected many fossils after identifying and recognizing them. She does all this based on self-taught research and knowledge. 

The child prodigy wants to spread knowledge about the lesser-known field of palaeontology. With this intention, she has also been conducting various seminars and workshops in schools, colleges, and even geology or palaeontology institutes. The Global Child Prodigy awarded Aswatha for her remarkable work at such a young age.

2. Adeeb Alblooshi

At only 15 years of age, Adeeb Alblooshi is one of the most recognized inventors of the UAE. He has already applied for seven scientific patents. He is now the CEO of his own company.

Adeeb’s father, who used a prosthetic leg, first inspired Adeeb to develop a medical apparatus. His father could not swim in the water because the prosthetic leg his father had was not waterproof. So Adeeb decided to upgrade his father’s prosthetic leg, and he got successful in doing so. Adeeb is the head of the  Arab Youth Council for Integrated Development’s young inventors and innovators committee. Also, he won the Global Child Prodigy Award in January 2020 for his inventions.

3. Soborno Isaac Bari

As all high school seniors wait eagerly for acceptance letters from prestigious institutes, Soborno Isaac Bari has already lived the dream. When Soborno was 2, his parents got a message requesting them to change his name to Isaac, after Sir Isaac Newton. This was because he used to grasp concepts quickly he hadn’t been taught.

Soborno began receiving letters from presidents and chancellors of various universities like Oxford. He got a letter from President Barack Obama too, speaking of how proud he and Michelle were of Isaac Bari. Soborno received the Global Child Prodigy Award in January 2020 for his incredible skills.
