National Pharmacy Congress 2023, 19th Edition – Pharmacy today: from tradition to interdisciplinarity and artificial intelligence

More than 1500 pharmacists and health specialists gathered in Cluj-Napoca for the most important event of the year dedicated to the pharmaceutical community in Romania – the National Pharmacy Congress 2023, 19th Edition, organized by the Romanian Society of Pharmaceutical Sciences and the University of Medicine and Pharmacy “Iuliu Hațieganu” in Cluj-Napoca, reports ziarulfaclia.ro.

The opening ceremony of the congress together with the two plenary lectures by the Rector of UMF, Anca Dana Buzoianu, and the special guest of this edition, Andreas Bender, Professor of Molecular Informatics at the University of Cambridge, took place in the elegant hall of the Romanian National Opera. The theme of this year’s Congress is “Pharmacy today: from tradition to interdisciplinarity and artificial intelligence”.

In the first part of the official opening event, Prof. Marius Bojiță, President of the Cluj Branch of AOSR, spoke on behalf of the Academy of Romanian Scientists, according to whom “The theme of the congress was set by the Romanian Society of Pharmaceutical Sciences almost a year ago. With IT gaining ground in various fields, the Pharmaceutical Sciences Society could not fail to be receptive. It is therefore very important that pharmacies increasingly start to incorporate artificial intelligence into their daily work. However, no matter how much artificial intelligence penetrates the pharmaceutical field, the pharmacist remains the one who must communicate with the patient and it is he who must understand his suffering“.

Libraries – Hubs for developing basic digital skills for Romanians

“ Libraries – Hubs for developing basic digital skills for Romanians “
Wednesday 11 October 2023, 10.00 am, at the Carol I Central University Library

Agenda_Ev-Biblioteci-11102023_231009_151914

Event organized by the Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitization in partnership with the Academy of Romanian Scientists and with the support of the World Bank.

The event is dedicated to the re-launch of the call for projects funded by Investment 17. Component 7. Digital Transformation of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan in the NRRP where research tools will be presented in order to define the content of the training of citizens for raising digital competences.

In line with the provisions of the draft NRRP grant:  

  • digital literacy
  • communicate
  • media literacy
  • digital content creation
  • digital security
  • digital entrepreneurship education

Romania aims to increase the basic digital skills of its citizens from 34.4% in 2022 to 80% in 2030 (according to the European Digitalisation Strategy). In this context, the Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitisation, through the Investment “Funding schemes for libraries to become hubs for digital competence development“, (Investment 17. Component 7. Digital Transformation of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan of the NRRP), aims to build on the existing network of public libraries to support the creation of a network of digital hubs to facilitate the development of digital skills.

As part of this, the Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitisation is also implementing a training programme that aims to develop basic digital skills for 100,000 citizens, with priority given to citizens from marginalised and disadvantaged groups.

The technology investment consists of equipping 105 libraries  to become digital skills development hubs and 1030 libraries will benefit from funds to change/upgrade their IT equipment.

A minimum of 1135 libraries will benefit from the investment as follows:

  • 105 libraries, including 5 county library headquarters and 100 municipal or rural libraries, will be renovated and equipped with computers and technical equipment
  • 1030 libraries will benefit from new or upgraded IT equipment

 Achieving these objectives is a the historic opportunity to transform libraries into true digital hubs through which we can increase the digital skills of Romanians. I invite you to be partners in this important step for the digital transformation of Romania in support of improved living  and working conditions for citizens.

Quality education, the path to performance and competitiveness

From World Education Day, The Academy of Romanian Scientists is addressed to all teachers at all levels of the education system, thanks and congratulations for the work of instruction and moral formation of pupils and students and wishes them a school and university year full of successes, achievements, joy and fulfilment!

We live in an era in which Knowledge is assumed programmatically as a means of development on all levels, as a factor of progress and evolution of man, society and civilisation on a European and global level. Education, carried out progressively and continuously, throughout the educational cycles, from pre-school to university and beyond, throughout life, in the lifelong learning paradigm, is the path to Knowledge. In the process of personal development and in the overall progress of society, quality, effective and efficient education is of fundamental importance. The teacher plays a key role in the whole process, and the quality and effectiveness of education and its openness to high performance and competitive results depend on him or her.

The Academy of Romanian Scientists, made up of teachers and researchers, starting from the central role of teachers in the educational process, expresses its respect and gratitude for the work of teachers and its solidarity with their aspirations regarding their status and recognition in society. At the same time, in an era of fierce competition and unprecedented technological progress, AOSR supports quality, efficiency and excellence in education through all its programmes and projects. Quality education depends on quality teachers, who, with dedication, competence, responsibility and dedication, train young generations in the spirit of excellence and performance, thus participating in the building of European Romania, a developed and competitive country through science and knowledge.

Happy birthday to the country’s teachers!

Editorial appearances at the Publishing House of the Academy of Romanian Scientists

We would like to point out two new publications from the Academy of Romanian Scientists:
Nicolae Gabriel-Octavian, Valentin Ciorbea. Our friend Anatole Magrin: artist photographer and diplomat: life and work/ Artiste photographe et diplomate. His life and work/ Artist Photographer and Diplomat. Life and Work.
Bucharest: Publishing House of the Academy of Romanian Scientists, 2023.
English translation – Nicoleta Stanca
French translation – Ion Dumitrașcu
236 pp. 

In exceptional graphic conditions, Gabriel-Octavian Nicolae and Valentin Ciorbea publish a large album in a trilingual edition, Romanian-French-English, dedicated to the first photographer of Dobrogea, Anatole Magrin, the Frenchman from Dobrogea who left to posterity the first images of the region between the Danube and the Black Sea after the union with Romania after 1878. Settled in Constanta in the autumn of 1878, Anatole Magrin carried out a complex activity in the Constantine community and as a diplomat vice-consul of France.

The beautiful achievement of the two is prefaced by Her Excellency Laurence Auer, Ambassador of the Republic of France in Romania, Vergil Chițac, Mayor of Constanta, Romeo Stavăr-Vergea, Honorary Consul of France in Constanta and Dorin Popescu, Cultural Advisor to the Mayor of Constanta.

The authors take their readers through the life of Anatole Magrin, born in France on 9 December 1858, who settled in Constanta in 1878, where he lived until 1928. A gifted photographer, he often left his studio with his camera to capture general images of Dobrogea, details of various localities, etc.

The exceptional value of the album is the illustrations, the photographs of Magrin’s native places, but especially of Constanța and Dobrogea. The preserved photographs, collected with great effort in the personal collection of Gabriel-Octavian Nicolae, allow us to see how Tulcea, Babadag, Mangalia, Adamclisi and Constanta looked like at various times of the evolution after 1878. Streets, neighbourhoods, buildings, the harbour and various ships can be seen. Impressive are the images of the inhabitants of Dobrogea, the photographer Magrin capturing the multi-ethnic specificity of the region. For the value of his work he was awarded a medal in Paris and elevated to the status of supplier to the Royal Court.

Romanian and foreign readers who browse through the impressive album will have the opportunity to appreciate Anatole Magrin’s exceptional contribution to the art of photography and to relations between Romania and France.

Valentin Ciorbea, Adjutant General Paul Teodorescu (1888-1981). Dimensions of creativity
Publishing House of the Academy of Romanian Scientists, Bucharest, 2023, 357 p.

Prof. Dr. Valentin Ciorbea, full member of AOSR, presents readers with a comprehensive monograph on the life and work of Adjutant General Paul Teodorescu on his 135th birthday.

General Paul Teodorescu dedicated his life to the great institutions of the Romanian people: the Army, the School and the Church. The author takes the reader back to his childhood, family life, school years, which the young Paul Teodorescu went through. He began his career as a platoon commander and ended it with the rank of general, division commander. He fought in two wars: The Second Balkan War and the First World War. He did brilliant studies in France. Back in the country, he was a professor at the Higher War School, combining his work at the department with scientific research. As Chief of Staff of the Aeronautics Inspectorate, he played a major role in the organization of the structure and development of this field.

As commander of the “Mihai Viteazul” Guards Regiment, he transformed the unit into a unique model in Romania and made it known abroad.

He was a military diplomat in France and director of the Higher War College, a position from which he reformed military higher education and initiated the construction of the Cotroceni campus. As a minister in ten governments he left remarkable achievements.

During the communist regime he was imprisoned, deprived of his livelihood, forced to fight the authorities for survival.

His scientific research has been exploited in books, studies and manuscripts. The Romanian Academy of Sciences and the Romanian Academy recognized his merits and elected him as a full and corresponding member respectively.

Raised in a family with strong religious convictions, he paid particular attention to the Orthodox Church throughout his life. He was a founder and renovator of places of worship. The most lasting of his achievements is the consecration of the Wooden Monastery as the Holy Place of the Air Force and Navy.

Professor Ciorbea brings in the pages of the book the last years of the General’s life, retired to the Monastery of Dintr-un Lemn, where he was buried in the cemetery of the Holy Place.

In his foreword, the renowned historian Prof. Petre Otu concludes: “As a result of this prodigious effort, Professor Ciorbea has the great merit of having imposed, or rather reimposed, the personality of Adjutant General Paul Teodorescu in historiography, especially in the military and in public opinion. Therefore, the monograph published under the auspices of the Academy of Scientists, of which he is a full member, is a work of synthesis, of maturity, which crowns a remarkable scientific activity”..

Prof. dr. eng. Adrian Badea: “Knowledge is obtained through education”

Interview with Mr. Prof. dr. eng. Adrian Badea, President of the Academy of Romanian Scientists, in the framework of the project “Ambassadors of Science”, born out of Radio Romania’s desire to discover and make known to the public today’s makers of tomorrow.

The project, realized by Radio Romania in collaboration with the Academy of Romanian Scientists, through the Institute for Advanced Interdisciplinary Research “Constantin Angelescu”, promotes the field of scientific research and introduces to the public in Romania and abroad the great scientific personalities of the Academy.

WATCH the video interview here

President of the Academy of Romanian Scientists, prof. univ. dr. eng. Adrian Badea, has 50 years of experience in education and research in energy and environmental protection. Most of his research over the last 25 years has been in the fields of renewable energy sources and environmental protection, and he coordinated the creation of a research platform “Renewable Energy Sources and Sustainable Development”, of which he was the director.

His impressive scientific activity, which began during his studies, has been reflected in his publishing activity: 25 books/monographs and 12 university lectures. His research experience recommended him as Director of the National Research Programme: Environment-Energy-Resources-Risk, the MENER programme that evaluates, monitors and funds research projects in these areas.

A permanent concern of Prof. dr. dr. eng. Adrian Badea is that AOSR gets closer to the young generation that it supports through conferences and research projects with exceptional results that bring more visibility to Romania and young researchers.

Within the Romanian Academy of Sciences there is a nucleus of people with exceptional professional careers, who through their work within the institution bring permanent added value to Romanian society and whom we will present in future interviews.

We’re saying goodbye to Mrs. Professor Mihaela-Angelica Cărbunaru-Băcescu!
