The Peninsula Doha: In less than one year since its opening, the Corrosion Center at Qatar Environment & Energy Research Institute is estimated to have saved Qatar’s oil and gas industry millions of US dollars. But this doesn’t feel so big when you look at Qatar’s annual cost of corrosion – estimated at a whopping US $8 billion (National Association of Corrosion Engineering, NACE IMPACT study, 2016), which is approximately five percent of its annual gross domestic product.  “Corrosion costs in Qatar are very high,” said Dr. Hanan Farhat, Senior Research Director of the Corrosion Center at Qatar Environment & Energy Research Institute (QEERI), part of Qatar Foundation’s Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU). “A major contributor towards these costs is the underestimation of corrosion phenomena and their impact on businesses – the business interruptions caused due to equipment failure can add up.

Why Prioritizing Genomic Research Is Critical for The Future of Healthcare

Why Prioritizing Genomic Research Is Critical for The Future of Healthcare April 23, 2021 Contributed Commentary by Said Ismail April 23, 2021 | Over the past 20 years, the field of genomics has undergone significant progress and transformation. We are at an exciting juncture in this field; however, there is more to be done to ensure more equitable access to technologies and support researchers around the world. The global fight against COVID-19 has highlighted the promise of genome sequencing, but its reach extends well beyond this pandemic. I believe the case for prioritizing global genomic research that can help all populations is clearer than ever before.
