Thxs to🇨🇭Ambassador to 🇩🇯 Pietro Mona - and EDA - DFAE for making it possible for TRSC to have such a privileged meeting with Swiss Federal Concillor Ignazio Cassis in Djibouti and to update him the EPFL-based initiative he launched 5 years ago in person.

Congratulations Jonathan Sauder for your achievement and such a groundbreaking innovation. Clearly a source of pride for you and devistuia at EPFL, and a critical tool for TRSC in the Red Sea as part of Swiss science diplomacy. EDA - DFAE

An artificial intelligence developed at EPFL can produce 3D maps of coral reefs from camera footage in a few minutes. It marks a leap forward in deep-sea exploration and conservation capabilities for organizations like the Transnational Red Sea Center.
