Dr. Hoang Thi Giang shared that the award is a testament to the efforts and good relationships between the Vietnamese research team and French partners throughout the project implementation process.

According to Lecturer Tran Quang Hoa, the topic awarded this time refers to research on theoretical mathematics. However, this research also has specific applications in “rational mapping”, which is used to model objects such as cars, and airplanes, or applied in 3D printing technology. Lecturer Tran Quang Hoa shared that this award would create an opportunity for research teams in Hue and Hanoi to work with leading professors in France.

The international award is given annually by the French Academy of Sciences to honor scientific cooperation projects between France and other countries as well as international organizations. The fact that two Vietnamese scientists received this prestigious award contributes to further promoting bilateral scientific cooperation models.
