It promotes appreciation of the arts towards acculturation of science among Malaysians, via two subprogrammes: the ArtScience\u2122 Prize and the ArtScience\u2122 Engagement Programme.<\/p>\n<p>The ArtScience\u2122 Prize is the first-ever to be established in Malaysia to celebrate the nascent community of artist-scientists that shows promising growth and development. The projects envisioned under the ArtScience\u2122 Initiative aspire to strengthen the research endeavour at the interface of art and science.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the ArtScience\u2122 Coffee Chat and the ArtScience\u2122 Dialogue are two activities under the Engagement subprogramme that features professionals, artists and scientists to enculturate the convergence of art and science. It achieves this by facilitating communication between participants and prominent figures from the art and science communities.<\/p>\n<p>A Task Force member of the Initiative is invited as a guest speaker at the ArtScience\u2122 Coffee Chat. The guest speaker engages with the audience in an interactive session to delve deeper into the concept of convergence in art and science.<\/p>\n<p>The ArtScience\u2122 Dialogue series features worldly panellists with a keen eye on the philosophy of ArtScience\u2122 discussing specific topics, as well as aiding artist-scientists in overcoming hurdles in materialising their concepts and projects.<\/p>\n<div class=\"idea_box\" style=\"\"><div class=\"icon\"><i class=\"icon-lamp\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/div><div class=\"desc\"><em>The ArtScience\u2122 Prize is now open for applications.
