The recently concluded PhD Camp 2025 brought together a dynamic group of young researchers from Pakistan, Iran, Nigeria, Tunisia, Algeria and South Africa. This academic event served as a dynamic platform for emerging scholars to present their research across a broad spectrum of disciplines, reflecting the diversity and strength of scientific and technological innovation in the region.
Throughout the camp, we were honored to host a panel of esteemed experts and professors
Jean-guy Alex Fontaine- founder of Jean-guy Lab, National-level Talent
Remo Proietti Zaccaria- head of the DELTA lab at the ltalian Institute of Technology (IIT),
Director of the SIC, Provincial-level Talent
Khalid Zahouily- founder of Zhejiang Adventa New Materials Co., Ltd, National-level Talent
Masood Varshosaz- professor at Shaoxing University
Amar Missoum- CEO of Shaoxing Amar Missoum Technology Co., Ltd., Research Fellow of UNISA
who evaluated each project with thoughtful insight and rigor. Their international perspectives added great value to the discussions, helping guide the candidates in refining their work and exploring potential applications beyond the academic realm.
Award Announcement
We are pleased to announce the recipients of this year’s PhD Camp awards:
Honor award:
Miracle Adegun- graduated from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, his research background was focused on Design and Development of Radar Absorbing Materials and Coatings
His research demonstrated exceptional innovation, clarity of vision, and strong potential for real-world application.
Runners-Up:
Atif Ali- graduated from Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE), his research background was Defect Passivation by Incorporation of Additives to achieve Super Stable and Efficient metal Halide Perovskite Solar Cells and Modules
Summaira Jabeen- graduated from Zhejiang University, her research background was Dual Branch Neural Network for Speaker Recognition
These candidates were recognized for their strong academic contributions and promising research directions.
To recognize their exceptional efforts and innovative ideas, we awarded three prizes and presented certificates to all winners and finalists. These awards are not only a celebration of their achievements but also a token of our confidence in their potential to shape the future.
Opportunities Beyond the Camp
Beyond recognition, the PhD Camp 2025 also focused on facilitating long-term opportunities for participating candidates.
Access to the Keqiao Talent Program: From this camp we selected three candidates who will apply to the Keqiao Talent Program and we also encouraged to apply other participants. This initiative offers outstanding support for researchers to launch their own startups and bring their ideas to life in a thriving innovation ecosystem.
Postdoctoral Pathways: One of the candidates get an offer by one of the expert to apply for the postdoc position in his group.
The next round details will be announced in August.
