About the project

On Stars of Science Season 8, Saif had one mission - to ensure the visually impaired have access to the infinite world of Arabic literature. It may have seemed like mission impossible when he first contemplated the idea. Viewers, however, soon found out behind Saif’s calm exterior lurks a vibrant, innovative spirit just waiting to burst out. Lo and behold, in a stealthy fashion Tom Cruise would envy, the young Omani quickly established himself with the SOS jury and audience as a force to be reckoned with.

About the Project

Sadeem took home the top prize in Season 8 with his invention, GenomiQ. The device is all about genetic testing. This type of testing is sometimes required for medical examinations to identify if a person has developed a disease. GenomiQ automates the process of genetic testing, with the ultimate aim of improving testing accuracy, as well as eliminating human error and cross contamination of samples.
