Kazakh and Italian scientists discussed cooperation and the
outcomes of joint scientific projects at the «Science and Creativity»
conference held in Astana. The event was organized by Nazarbayev University
(NU) in partnership with the Embassy of Italy in Kazakhstan and the Italian
Cultural Institute. Discussions focused on digitalization, the potential of
artificial intelligence, and the effective integration of the humanities with
the natural and technical sciences. Innovative developments in the creative
industries can serve as examples of such integration. According to experts,
Kazakhstan is currently focused on implementing effective know-how developed by
domestic researchers, while cooperation with Italian scientists further
broadens these opportunities.
«One of our most innovative projects is a research
initiative in cardiology aimed at enhancing diagnostic methods using minimally
invasive technologies. The second project focuses on rehabilitation. Thanks to
collaboration with major Italian innovation companies such as Technobody and
Technogym, we now have the opportunity to provide remote rehabilitation
services to residents of Kazakhstan’s remote regions using telerehabilitation
devices,» said Yeltay Rakhmanov, Instructor at the NU School of Medicine.
«I have to say that the importance that Italy attaches to
the broader collaboration with Kazakhstan is demonstrated in the cultural side
also by the recent creation of the cultural institute. It is based in Almaty,
but of course is working in all the country, bringing several important
projects. And one of the most significant will be the translation of Italian
masterpieces of our literature in Kazakh language,» said Antonello De Riu,
Ambassador of Italy to Kazakhstan.
