You’re now watching to the first episode of the latest initiative by the VinFuture Foundation – the Unveil the Future podcast series. Our mission is to bridge the gap between science and the public, making it more accessible and easily comprehensible for all. Our hope is that regardless of your background or interests, you will find something compelling in each episode as our esteemed scientists share their captivating stories. We are thrilled to have you embark on this journey with us!

To start off this series, we decided to go with someone whose story is a testament of how patience and passion can take you very far.

Renowned for his pivotal role in the invention of the graphite anode, this man stands as a shining example of perseverance, dedication, and fortitude in the realm of scientific pursuit. Despite his groundbreaking work in creating the graphite anode in 1979, he hasn’t received the recognition he deserves through numerous awards.

In the debut episode of the Unveil the Future podcast, we delve into the intellect of this visionary whose innovation resides within the smartphones so frequently used in modern society. Please join me in welcoming Prof. Rachid Yazami, Laureate of the 2023 VinFuture Grand Prize.
