Yensi Flores Bueso (United States)
With the GYA, I was not only able to co-lead the first global study on research assessment but also to serve as a steering board member of CoARA. GYA opened platforms for me as a researcher coming from a country without research infrastructure.

🚨 New GYA Research Alert!A team of GYA members and alumni — including EC members Reem Abou Assi and Morita Saktiawati, alongside Isil Aksan Kurnaz, Devina Lobine, Godwin Anywar, Karen Cloete, Mareli Claassens, and Shymaa Enany — has just published an ambitious new paper:🧪 “Sustainable Strategies in Tuberculosis Management: Bridging Ethnobotanical Pharmacology, Advanced Drug Delivery, and AI‑Driven Innovation.”Why this matters:Tuberculosis remains one of the world’s most persistent global health challenges. This paper brings together traditional knowledge, cutting‑edge biomedical innovation, and AI-powered approaches to outline sustainable, equitable pathways for future TB management.🌍 It’s the kind of interdisciplinary thinking policymakers need — and a great example of how #ECRs are pushing boundaries to reimagine global health solutions.👏 Huge congratulations to the authors for advancing the conversation on TB innovation and sustainability.Read the paper online here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jebm.70121 ...
