By Kane Webb Here is a look at the USC Trojans’ college football schedule in 2022 with a rundown of their opponents. The USC Trojans finally had enough of mediocrity and jettisoned Clay Helton to the outer orbits of college football, where he truthfully belongs. Helton was a mediocre talent evaluator and an even worse developer of the talent he had. In this year’s draft, USC once again had seemingly little to offer the NFL. A grand total of 33 players were drafted throughout Helton’s six-year tenure, and that includes the six that were picked in 2015, the year he took over. So, if you remove t…

Research paper published as healthtech company gains fresh insight into Africa’s diverse genomic data

LAGOS, Nigeria, May 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — 54gene, the health technology company advancing African genomics research for improved global health outcomes, has through its non-profit initiative, the African Centre for Translational Genetics (ACTG), completed its first consortium-led publication on over 100,000 Nigerians as commissioned in 2020 at its launch. The Non-Communicable Diseases Genetic Heritage Study (NCD-GHS) consortium has published a paper in the esteemed journal, Nature Genetics, entitled “Promoting the Genomic Revolution in Africa through the Nigerian 100k Genome Project”. 54gene Completes Initial Phase of the Landmark Nigerian 100K Genome Project

Through 54gene’s ACTG, the consortium operates as a unique public-private partnership involving leading African scientists guided by a team of global genomic leaders as the Scientific Advisory Board to achieve the mission of the ACTG. The consortium, which is made up of scientists from 54gene, the Nigerian Institute of Medical Research, and the Center for Genomics Research and Innovation at the National Biotechnology Development Agency as well as researchers from multiple academic institutions in Nigeria and London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, is built on a shared vision of positioning African populations to benefit from advances in genomic science.

According to the paper, as of January 2019, approximately 3% of genomic data being used for genome wide association studies (GWAS) came from people of African descent, with this statistic dropping to 1.1% in 2021. The paper details efforts in building an important resource that could significantly enable African populations to benefit from the global efforts at achieving precision medicine for various diseases. This has been achieved through the production of a comprehensive catalog of human genetic variation, examining the characteristics of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in 100,000 adults in Nigeria seeking to understand the genetic basis of the highly prevalent illnesses such as cancers, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, chronic kidney and sickle cell disease, among others. Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) kill more than 41 million people every year, accounting for 71% of all deaths globally. The prevalence of NCDs is projected to become higher than that of infectious diseases in Africa by 2030^{^[1]}.

The study spans the breadth of the Nigerian population with data gathered from the 6 geopolitical zones in the country and sampling from the majority of the more than200 ethnolinguistic groups, with ethically consulted participants being recruited falling under two categories: disease cases recruited from disease specialist clinics, and community cases which are individuals with initially unknown diseases recruited from communities through household surveys.

54gene Logo 54gene Founder and CEO, Dr. Abasi Ene-Obong, said, “Along with our partners, we are proud to be leading the new frontier of African genomics. Precision medicine goes against the one-size-fits-all approach to disease treatment as it is more inclusive, with people treated on their unique genetic makeup. With more than 200 ethnic groups and 500 different languages, Nigeria has one of the most diverse ethnolinguistic concentrations in the world. This pioneering study from the Nigerian population provides an excellent window into the representation of diversity across Africa. With recruitment nearly complete and the commencement of data generation and bioinformatics analysis, we are excited at how this study makes the promise of precision medicine more attainable to Nigerians, Africans and the global population.”

Dr. Segun Fatumo, co-lead NCD-GHS and the first author of the landmark paper said, “I am so proud of what NCD-GHS has achieved in only about two years. In our own eyes, 100K genomes of Africa are emerging from more than 300 diverse ethnic groups in Nigeria. The current lack of genomic diversity has resulted in significant missed scientific and medical opportunities, but NCD-GHS strategic vision to drive new large-scale studies with rich African genome datasets would help fill some gaps. I am deeply honoured to be a co-lead of this initiative. The NCD-GHS’s public-private partnership with 54gene pioneers a model to increase diversity in genomic studies, including capacity building and plan to develop more genomic leaders in Africa.”

Speaking on the publication of the research paper, Colm O’Dushlaine, Vice President, Genomics and Data Science at 54gene, said, “The 100k project supports 54gene’s core mission to equalize precision medicine, by building rich genomic datasets that will be used to generate powerful insights for the benefit of African, and other global populations. African populations are among the most diverse in the world. In the context of genome-wide association scans, more variation – more shots on goal – can help to provide new insights into the etiology of disease and drive novel therapeutic target discovery. The broader strategic objectives of the NCD-GHS are far-reaching. They include a focus on the creation of genomics leaders in Africa, efforts to increase the number of skilled African genomics scientists to help drive new studies and discoveries, initiatives that drive progressive health policy and practice, and the promotion of discourse and thought leadership on ethical, legal and social issues in genomics research and precision medicine. All of these are central to 54gene’s mission and values.”

Aminu Yakubu, VP Research Governance and Ethics, said, “Building on the legacy of the H3Africa project, the capacity building objective of the NCD-GHS in the 100K Genome Project is a strategic undertaking that would catalyse the future we envisage – of Africans with the skillset and knowledge, able to lead genomic insights generation and development to address health challenges faced by Africans over the long haul. It is a people-facing impact creation initiative that puts the social value of the work we do at the center, facilitated through the African Center for Translational Genetics. The focus of one of the NCD-GHS agendas on governance and ethics was deliberate to ensure that we are aligned with existing country-specific and international best practices. Our commitment to also support academic thought leadership on ethics and governance issues in genomics research would allow us to evolve as we learn of better ways to protect the welfare of research participants and ensure fairness in research collaborations.”

Post author By admin
Post date May 9, 2022

The 1:1 NFT plus the last physical Aventador Coupé auction closed at $1.6MM – placing the purchase price in the top 10 brand new Lamborghinis ever sold at auction.

New York, NY, May 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — [INVNT GROUP] The Global BrandStory Project, in collaboration with Lamborghini, leading metaverse artist Krista Kim, 2x Grammy-nominated artist Steve Aoki, and the historied collector car auction house, RM Sotheby’s, sold the world’s first supercar 1:1 NFT connected to the last physical production supercar Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae Coupé ever produced. Leading brands and organizations into the future of Web3, [INVNT GROUP] curated the strategic partnership and developed, designed, and produced the ‘Lamborghini Ultimate’ campaign globally.

Achieving 562MM+ Global Media Reach Impressions and 4.65MM+ Social Media Impressions, the exposure resulted in a closing auction bid of $1.6MM – over 3x the standard suggested retail of a Lamborghini Aventador Coupé – making it one of the 10 most expensive brand new Lamborghini’s ever sold at auction.

To achieve these results, [INVNT GROUP], led by President and CEO Scott Cullather, leveraged the skills and services of its digital innovation division, INVNT.ATOM™, its digital content studio, HEVĒ™, and team members across four of its nine offices, around the globe.

Committed to brand storytelling and boundless innovation, driven by strategy, design, and technology, The GROUP recently announced its expanding global presence through the Web3-focused digital innovation division, INVNT.ATOM, which powered the ‘Lamborghini Ultimate’ project, including the NFT production. INVNT.ATOM helps brands and organizations navigate, activate, and create new storytelling opportunities at the digital frontier. The team, located in INVNT’s Singapore office, consists of strategists, creators, and community-builders specializing in digital-first campaigns, emergent technologies, and engaging brand experiences calibrated for the new era of Web3.

“This collaboration, sitting at the intersection of art, music, entertainment, design, and technology, was an epic project for our group. It represents every aspect of our ongoing commitment to helping brands and organizations tell stories that connect with their most important audiences in engaging and relevant ways. Leveraging Web3 technology in partnering with Lamborghini, Steve, Krista, and RM Sotheby’s, we brought communities from around the world together in unimaginable ways,” Scott Cullather President and CEO of [INVNT GROUP]

INVNT.ATOM together with HEVĒ, [INVNT GROUP]’s creative agency and production studio, led the creative, strategy, design, content, and marketing communications. Through public relations, and social and influencer partnerships, the campaign reached a global audience of over 500MM+. HEVĒ spearheaded the creative direction and production of the Behind the Drop video featuring exclusive interviews with Krista Kim, Steve Aoki, and Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini.

In the historic campaign, Automobili Lamborghini auctioned the last production Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae Coupé with a 1:1 NFT. Lamborghini and [INVNT GROUP] united three forms of art: design, music, and cutting-edge technology, to create a never-before-seen collaboration that will go down as one of the most prolific 1:1 NFT drops of the year.

The Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae Coupé exclusive one of one was brought to life in both the NFT and physical car by contemporary artist Krista Kim, who created the visual artwork and her signature gradients. The gradients also appear in the bespoke customization of the physical Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae Coupé, and NFT visionary artist Steve Aoki who consulted on the design of the NFT, physical car and provided a custom-developed soundtrack.

“We had this approach of: “how do we bring upon the higher states of consciousness, and how does that translate and transmute the beauty of the power in the V12 engine of Lamborghini. As a luxury super sports car company, I think that this company is really pioneering web3,” said Krista Kim.

Steve Aoki continues, “I’m honored to be partnering with Lamborghini, Krista Kim, and [INVNT GROUP] on this historic project. It truly has its own story, & therefore I wanted my music track to reflect its soulful energy – the vibe, the spirit, and the power. The digital imprint of who we are has a serious meaning to our lives. As we step into web3, having identity through things like NFTs, like this car, are going to be more and more important to us.”

An exclusive preview of the NFT was hosted on BZAR Future of Community™, [INVNT GROUP]’s patent-pending, decentralized, content-led metaverse; established as a marketplace for physical and digital transactions, NFTs, entertainment, social, and gaming experiences.

The owner of the world’s first super sports car 1:1 NFT now holds in their possession the first-ever Lamborghini luxury super sports car for Web3; with capabilities via the exclusive GLB files, the winner can drive the one of a kind NFT in the Web3 platform of their choice pending platform mechanics.

Marking the end of an incredible era for Lamborghini; the brand is now looking to the future and electrifying its complete line-up by 2024. As Lamborghini charges into the digital era the lucky owner will be part of the brand’s legacy, owning the last naturally aspirated V12 Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae Coupé, and the exclusively designed NFT – the first Lamborghini luxury super sports car for Web3.

“Partnering with [INVNT GROUP], Steve Aoki and Krista Kim on the design and production of this incredible moment in Lamborghini’s history – the very last Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae Coupé ever produced was amazing. These creative minds coming together to design and produce, the 1:1 physical super sports car and NFT package with one of a kind utilities, has created something very special that can be shared for generations to come – making it part of Lamborghini’s iconic legacy,” Christian Mastro, Marketing Director, Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A.

‫ LONGi تصدر تقريرها السنوي لعامي 2021 والربع الأول من عام 2022

Post author By admin
Post date May 9, 2022

شيان، الصين, 9 مايو 2022/PRNewswire/ — أصدرت LONGi تقريرها السنوي لعامي 2021 والربع الأول من عام 2022 للمساهمين العالميين، كاشفة عن أن الشركة حافظت على عمليات مستقرة وحققت شحنات عالمية كبيرة من المنتجات طوال هذه الفترة.

وقدر التقرير الإيرادات التشغيلية لشركة LONGi لعام 2021 ب 80.932 مليار يوان صيني، بزيادة سنوية قدرها 48.27%. وبلغ صافي الربح المنسوب للشركة الأم خلال الفترة 9.086 مليار يوان صيني، بما في ذلك 8.826 مليار يوان صيني من صافي الأرباح المقتطعة من المكاسب والخسائر غير المتكررة المنسوبة إلى مساهمي الشركات المدرجة. وبلغ الهامش الإجمالي الموحد 20.19% ونسبة الأصول إلى الخصوم 51.31%، بانخفاض 8.07% عن العام السابق.

ومن حيث نتائج الربع الأول من عام 2022، حققت الشركة إيرادات تشغيلية بلغت 18.595 مليار يوان صيني، بزيادة قدرها 17.29% مقارنة بالفترة نفسها من العام السابق، وتواصل ريادتها لصناعة الكهروضوئية. ترى LONGi إمكانات كبيرة لانتقال الطاقة العالمي وفرصًا مرتبطة بالسعي لتحقيق الحياد الكربوني في جميع أنحاء العالم، وقد وضعت لنفسها هدفًا يتمثل في تحقيق إيرادات تشغيلية تزيد عن 100 مليار يوان صيني في عام 2022.

إنتاج الرقاقة والوحدات يشهد نموًا سريعا وتظل الشحنات رقم 1 عالميًا

في عام 2021، حققت LONGi شحنات رقاقة من 70.01 جيجاواط، مقسمة بين المبيعات الخارجية من 33.92 جيجاواط و 36.09 جيجاواط للاستخدام الداخلي وشحنت 38.52 جيجاواط من الوحدات أحادية البلورية، والتي شكلت المبيعات الخارجية 37.24 جيجاواط والاستخدام الداخلي 1.28 جيجاواط. وخلال الفترة المشمولة بالتقرير، صنفها أداء المبيعات العالمية للشركة وحصتها في السوق وتأثير علامتها التجارية في المرتبة الأولى في العالم، حيث تجاوز إجمالي حجم شحناتها من الوحدات المحلية والمصدرة المرتبة الثانية بأكثر من 10 جيجاواط.

في الربع الأول من عام 2022، حققت LONGi 18.36 جيجاوات في شحنات رقاقة السيليكون أحادية البلورية، مقسمة بين المبيعات الخارجية البالغة 8.42 جيجاوات و 9.94 جيجاوات للاستخدام الداخلي وشحنت 6.44 جيجاوات من الوحدات أحادية البلورية، والتي شكلت المبيعات الخارجية منها 6.35 جيجاوات والاستخدام الداخلي 0.09 جيجاوات.

واعتبارًا من نهاية عام 2021، وصلت الطاقة الإنتاجية للشركة للرقائق والخلايا والوحدات إلى 105 جيجاوات و37 جيجاوات و60 جيجاوات على التوالي، مع زيادة أهداف السعة لعام 2022 إلى 150 جيجاوات و60 جيجاوات و85 جيجاوات.

أصدرت LONGi أهداف شحن 2022 بقيمة 90 جيجاواط -100 جيجاوات (بما في ذلك الاستخدام الداخلي) للرقائق و50 جيجاوات -60 جيجاوات (بما في ذلك الاستخدام الداخلي) للوحدات.

استراتيجية العولمة والتوطين تمكن سوق الأعمال من دخول مرحلة جديدة

وباعتبارها لاعبًا رئيسيًا في تنفيذ استراتيجية العولمة والتوطين، حققت LONGi مكانة رائدة في حصة السوق للصين الكبرى وآسيا والمحيط الهادئ وأوروبا والولايات المتحدة والشرق الأوسط وأفريقيا، ووصلت مبيعات الوحدات إلى القيادة الشاملة عالميًا في عام 2020 مع تعزيز مكانتها في عام 2021. وقد أنشأت الشركة الآن مرافق تصنيع وشبكات مبيعات في أكثر من 150 دولة ومنطقة في جميع أنحاء العالم، وتوظف 49,967 موظفا بدوام كامل في الشركة، مع 9,827 موظفًا خارج البر الرئيسي للصين يمثلون 7.59% من الإجمالي الإجمالي.

مع النزاعات التجارية ( WRO ) وغيرها من القضايا المخصصة التي لها تأثير على الصناعة الكهروضوئية في الصين، فإن ميزة LONGi في عدم الاعتماد على سوق واحدة تسمح لها بالأداء الجيد باستمرار وتلبية توقعات النمو. ومن شأن استكمال التحول التقني لخطوط الإنتاج الحالية أن يعزز التنسيق العام للمبيعات العالمية في مختلف المناطق، وأن يقصر وقت عبور المنتجات، وأن يزيد من مستويات شحن المنتجات.

الاستثمار المستدام في البحث والتطوير التكنولوجي يقود الابتكار في الصناعة

تحافظ LONGi على التزام طويل الأجل بالبحث والتطوير في مجال التكنولوجيا. من إدراج الشركة في عام 2012 إلى عام 2021، بلغ معدل النمو السنوي المركب للإيرادات التشغيلية 53.52% وارتفع إجمالي إيراداتها من 1.71 مليار يوان صيني إلى أكثر من 80 مليار يوان صيني، بزيادة قدرها 47 ضعفًا. معدل نمو الاستثمار في البحث والتطوير خلال هذه الفترة متزامن تقريبًا، حيث بلغ مجموعه أكثر من 10 مليارات يوان صيني.

اعتبارًا من عام 2021، حصلت LONGi على ما مجموعه 1,387 براءة اختراع معتمدة واستثمرت 4.394 مليار يوان صيني في البحث والتطوير التكنولوجي، وهو ما يمثل 5.43% من الإيرادات، بزيادة سنوية قدرها 69.55%. في العام الماضي وحده، حطمت LONGi الرقم القياسي العالمي لكفاءة تحويل الخلايا 7 مرات عبر مختلف التخصصات التقنية وطالبت بالريادة الشاملة في تقنيات الخلايا الجديدة عالية الكفاءة بما في ذلك TOPCon من النوع n-type و p-type ومن HJT النوع n-type و p-type . وسيتم طرح تقنية الخلايا الشمسية الجديدة للشركة في الإنتاج خلال الربع الثالث من عام 2022.

المنظمات الدولية تصادق على العلامة التجارية الشهيرة لشركة LONGi وجودة منتجاتها

في عام 2021، اعترف مركز اختبار الطاقة المتجددة الأمريكي ( RETC ) ب LONGi كـ “متفوق” للعام الثالث على التوالي في تقرير مؤشر الوحدات الكهروضوئية ( PVMI ) الخاص به، كما حصلت LONGi على وضع أفضل أداء في بطاقة أداء موثوقية الوحدة الكهروضوئية من PVEL .

في Intersolar 2021 ، تم الاعتراف ب LONGi كفائز في فئة الخلايا الكهروضوئية عن وحدة سلسلة Hi-MO 5 (182mm) عالية الكفاءة، وهي الجائزة الممنوحة للشركات التي تقدم مساهمة كبيرة في الصناعة من خلال الابتكار التكنولوجي.

في عام 2021، تم الاعتراف ب LONGi مرة أخرى في مؤتمر TÜV Rheinland “All Quality Matters ” للطاقة الشمسية، حيث فازت وحداتها عالية الكفاءة Hi-MO 4 و Hi-MO 5 بجوائز عن عائد الطاقة في الهواء الطلق (مجموعة أحادية الوجه) ومحاكاة عائد الطاقة (مجموعة أحادية البلورية ثنائية الوجه) على التوالي.

تعزيز مفهوم البيئة والاجتماعية والحوكمة ( ESG ) لتحقيق الاستدامة

تنفذ LONGi بنشاط جهود التنمية المستدامة. في عام 2021، أعلنت الشركة عن تعهد طموح في مؤتمر الأمم المتحدة للتنوع البيولوجي ( COP15 ) بتحويل قاعدة إنتاج الشركة في باوشان في مقاطعة يوننان إلى أول “مصنع صافي الصفر” بحلول عام 2023. وسيشهد الإعلان عن التعهد بداية “صافي الصفر LONGi ” وإنشاء حقل اختبار لمفهوم التنمية المستدامة “الطاقة الشمسية من أجل الطاقة الشمسية” للشركة.

شهد عام 2021 أيضًا إصدار LONGi أول كتاب أبيض لها حول العمل المناخي في قمة COP26 . ووفقًا للوثيقة، ستواصل الشركة الوفاء بنشاط بالتزامها بتعزيز تنفيذ المبادرات الدولية الأربع، RE100 و EV100 و EP100 و SBTi .

بالإضافة إلى ذلك، يشير التقرير السنوي لعام 2021 إلى أن LONGi قد وصلت الآن إلى 40.19% من استخدام الكهرباء المتجددة في عملياتها العالمية وخفضت انبعاثات غازات الدفيئة بمقدار 1,687,933 طنًا، من خلال التخصصات الثلاثة لمرافق توليد الطاقة المملوكة ذاتيًا، وشراء مرافق توليد الطاقة من طرف ثالث والشراء التعاقدي للطاقة الخضراء.
