Stase

What if the tools needed to solve Ghana's environmental problems were also within reach of the scientists studying them? Think about galamsey and the pollution of our rivers. Understanding how heavy metals move through waterways requires computational modelling. Investigating bacteria that can survive in contaminated environments requires computational biology. But specialised scientific software can be expensive, putting these tools out of reach for many young African researchers. That's the problem Stase Intelligence is working to address. The Ghanaian technology research company is building Stase WorkBench, a platform bringing together computational systems for scientists and engineers. Two of its projects caught our attention: NsuGuard: Uses hydrodynamic modelling to reconstruct river environments, study contaminant movement, and support the planning of targeted remediation. ALUKA: Uses machine learning to identify bacterial genomes associated with heavy-metal resistance. And that's not all. Stase is also working on computational systems for embedded technologies and robotics. The company launched a year ago and is building entirely bootstrapped. African scientists are working on problems that affect millions of people. They need tools that help them investigate, experiment, and build solutions. Meet Stase Intelligence.
