Ms. Jebunnesa Chowdhury was nominated by the Bangladesh Academy of Sciences (BAS) to attend “Nobel Prize Dialogue Tokyo 2017” held at Tokyo International Forum, Tokyo, Japan on February 26, 2017. Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and Nobel Media AB were the organizers of the event. The event aims to stimulate discussion at the highest level on a topical science-related theme by bringing together Nobel Laureates, the world’s leading scientists, key opinion leaders, policy makers, different interest groups and the general public, online as well as on site. By bridging science and society, it is an opportunity to stimulate thinking, excite imagination and inspire greatness. Ms. Chowdhury actively joined the event by asking questions at the Q&A sessions after the lectures and a panel discussion on “The Future of Intelligence”. Presence of Her Imperial Highness Princess Takamado, at the evening reception on 26 February, was a great honour for the participants.
