Doha, Qatar:

After intense challenges and rigorous evaluations, five contestants on Season 15 of Stars of Science – Qatar Foundation’s Arab edutainment TV show that promotes scientific innovation in the region – have proceeded towards the next stage of the competition, known as the ‘design’ stage.

With two more participants eliminated in the last two rounds, the remaining five innovators now stand ready to present their prototypes to the jurors. Displaying ingenuity in promoting animal welfare and modernizing traditional sports in this season of Stars of Science, are contestants Mohammed Laouacheria, and Amir Mattar Jaber Alenezi.

Algerian contestant, Laouacheria, has turned to AI for monitoring animal health.
