The silver tone here also strongly resonates with the concept of modern technology at play throughout the year. We worked, studied and communicated with each other using our devices and gadgets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The die-cut number 25 allows us to peep into the next page where we can see Fellows online during the Annual General Meeting, a milestone in the history of the Academy as we received the highest number of participation in 25 years. The tagline, \u201cLeading Collaboration in Science\u201d cannot be more apt as we could not have pulled off the year 2020 working alone. We partnered and worked alongside people, organisations and counterparts from across the globe to achieve our goals, vision and mission.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">\u00a9Academy of Sciences Malaysia<br \/>\nWritten and designed by the Academy of Sciences Malaysia<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; full_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;zoomIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1618895361755{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;background-color: #232e63 !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}&#8221; el_id=&#8221;about-asm&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602917813664{margin-top: 35px !important;margin-right: -25px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;margin-left: -25px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;fadeInLeft&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1619228403958{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 10% !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 10% !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;dark&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\">WHO WE ARE<\/h4>\n<p class=\"p1\">ASM strives to be the nation\u2019s Thought Leader for matters related to Science, Technology and Innovation (STI).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">ASM is committed to pursuing excellence in the fields of Science, Engineering and Technology (SET) for the benefit of all.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\">WHAT WE DO<\/h4>\n<p class=\"p1\">ASM supports good science by endorsing activities of highest fulfilment to promote engagement, understanding and literacy in science, technology and innovation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Taking science outside its box is often a delightful journey that leads us to interesting new directions filled with various types of engagements with people.

the last \u201cnormal\u201d month for the world before civilisation was turned on its head.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As one of the youngest Academy of Sciences in the world, we certainly lived up to our age. We wholeheartedly embraced going virtual and have actually been able to thrive in the digital space as we have been involved in more activities to advance the sciences- be it local, regional or global- in the age of COVID-19. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As thought leaders in the sciences, many of our Fellows have risen to the occasion; sharing their insights to ensure that fact-based decisions are made in the age of complete uncertainty as our counterparts around the world threw out convention and collaborated to provide solutions for this pandemic. In addition to this, the Academy had set up a Special Interest Group (SIG) on COVID-19 whose members consist of Fellows and members of the Young Scientists Network- Academy of Sciences Malaysia (YSN-ASM) who authored close to 10 factsheets on the virus. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The close of the year definitely brought about good news thanks to that collaborative spirit. However, we; as Fellows; need to continue ensuring that fact-based information is disseminated and play an active part to quell misinformation in this digital age.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Within the national arena, we have achieved a number of firsts. Our virtual annual general meeting this year, the first for the Academy, saw nearly 50% of our Fellows join the meeting, the highest attendance to date. It was a meeting filled with warm moments as old friends caught up and endeavoured to fulfil the needs of the Academy. Recognising the urgent need to pivot our approach to organising events, we moved online, which has proved to be a beneficial move. Our virtual engagements have been well-received, with a total reach of over 271,000 views for the 25 webinars that were conducted over the last nine months of 2020.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We also took our signature event, the National Science Challenge virtually. The Virtual National Science Challenge (VNSC), which was themed \u201cTowards a Pandemic-resilient Community Through Science\u201d, drew the participation of 1,027 teams. The aspiration behind the theme was to enable the youth to comprehend the full impact of the pandemic and assist with sparking new ideas in the fight against the virus.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">VNSC is run by our able Young Scientists Network (YSN-ASM) who also set new standards in their other endeavours in 2020. One of the main programmes organised under Minggu Sains Negara 2020 is the YSN-ASM Science Caf\u00e9. For the year 2020, there were a total of 11 sessions, which took place both physically (pre MCO) and virtually (during MCO and CMCO). The nine virtual sessions had a record of over 25,000 views, which is impressive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Another first for the Academy, in keeping with the line of thought that the future is about the convergence of knowledge, is the introduction of the ASM ArtScience Initiative. The ArtScience Initiative, introduced at the end of 2019, is an example of the harmonisation sciences &amp; arts. We received close to 60 submissions which will be exhibited virtually in June 2021.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<a href=\"#popup-69d8150d5815a\" rel=\"lightbox\" data-lightbox-type=\"inline\" class=\"popup-link\">Read More<\/a><div id=\"popup-69d8150d5815a\" class=\"popup-content\"><div class=\"popup-inner\" style=\"padding:10px;\">\n<p class=\"p1\">We have also achieved another first in that a brainchild of the Academy, the 10-10 Malaysian Science, Technology, Innovation and Economic (<em>My<\/em>STIE) Framework that has been adopted at the national level. This is one of the efforts that will enable the Academy to strengthen its position at the highest level in the nation and has enabled for the impact that science, technology and innovation have on the economy to be recognised. This has led to the birth of a new area- STIE which links the science, technology, innovation sector and the economic sector.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Thank you to all the Fellows who have played a part to the Academy\u2019s efforts to advancing the sciences in the community. We appreciate all your contributions; be it in terms of time or financial contributions; in making our activities more mainstreamed and far-reaching in its impact.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Here\u2019s to a more successful decade ahead.<\/p>\n<p><\/div><\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; full_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;zoomIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602934821698{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;background-color: #e2e2e2 !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}&#8221; el_id=&#8221;council&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602917813664{margin-top: 35px !important;margin-right: -25px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;margin-left: -25px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_media_grid element_width=&#8221;3&#8243; gap=&#8221;0&#8243; item=&#8221;779&#8243; grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1619238964659-81b21e1e-60a8-6&#8243; include=&#8221;756,1618,758,759,1614,761,762,763,1620,765,766,767,768,769,770,1615&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;fadeInLeft&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1619184529590{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 10px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;dark&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span style=\"color: #fdba12;\">COUNCIL MEMBERS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li class=\"p2\">PROFESSOR DATUK DR ASMA ISMAIL FASc<br \/>\nPresident (2019-2022)<\/li>\n<li class=\"p2\">PROFESSOR DATO&#8217; IR DR A.
