As we wrap up the last part of our season finale at the Global Greek Influence, we have embarked on an enlightening journey through materials science, chemical and mechanical engineering, healthcare, cybersecurity, blockchain, innovation, entrepreneurship, leadership, climate change, sustainable economy, education, and AI. The discussions with distinguished guests have illuminated the profound impact of Greek professionals in these fields, showcasing the intricate tapestry of their contributions to global scientific and engineering research.

Although this marks the end of our current season, it signifies a celebration of a four-year journey, a testament to our dedication to exploring cutting-edge science, engineering, and technology research since December 2019.

But our journey is far from over! Join us in June 2024, when more compelling conversations and insightful perspectives from an array of distinguished guests await you.

Thank you all for being a part of this incredible journey. Stay tuned for our return in June 2024. Until then, keep exploring, stay curious, and embrace the ever-evolving world of science, engineering, and technology.

Stefan Ihrig, a Professor of History at the University of Haifa and the director of the Haifa Center for German and European Studies in Israel, has dedicated his career to unfolding the complex tapestry of European and Middle Eastern history. While our discussion might not (seemingly) be of direct interest to Hellenism, we explore what shaped the landscape and our understanding of the late Ottoman Empire and the early days of the Republic of Turkey: the threads that wove through the lives of Greeks during those times. The often overlooked German support to the Ottoman Empire, later to Atatürk, emerges as a significant external factor that also influenced the fate of Greeks in that turbulent period.

Through Professor Stefan Ihrig’s research and books, including “Atatürk in the Nazi Imagination”, we explore genocides of that era and geography, the denial of genocides, historical lessons of illiberal democratic leaders within deficient leadership environments applicable also today. The fascination with totalitarian historical figures adds another layer to the intricate fabric of a nation's founding principles.

Stay tuned for the remaining part of our discussion with Professor Ihrig, focusing on the Pontic Greek genocide, to be released in 2024. Join us as we shine a light on these lesser explored aspects of history, delving deeper into the narratives that often escape mainstream attention.

With Professor Dimitris Drikakis, VP for Global Partnerships and Executive Director for Research and Innovation at the University of Nicosia in Cyprus, and the Defence and Security Research Institute President, we explore the frontiers of artificial intelligence (AI) through the fields of safety, the potential environmental impacts of intensified space exploration in the upper layers of our atmosphere, and the transformative intersections of AI with physics and health crises. Occasionally, we drift away by discussing correlation and causation in scientific research and life, nuclear power in geopolitics, and healthcare in politics.

As we draw our discussion to a close, Professor Drikakis, who was also my guest in the episode 'The AI Age of Predictions', offers a glimpse into the key factor in the future application of AI set to revolutionise the field.
