Fish App - Young African Mathematicians Help Senegal's Fishermen | Tomorrow Today

  • 9 years ago
In the future, Senegalese fishermen might be able to use an app to calculate how much they can catch today without devastating the fish stocks of tomorrow. That's vital as stocks are shrinking along the country's Atlantic coast, while the population just keeps growing. The app is being tested and developed by researchers at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) in Senegal.
The institute is part of the Next Einstein Initiative, which promotes scientific and technical talent across Africa. It's supported by the Humboldt Foundation and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD)
