    The Ufa plants Bashneft-Novoil and Bashneft-Ufaneftekhim have launched industrial production of PG 64-28* road bitumen with improved performance characteristics. The new material can withstand increased transport loads and has an extended operating temperature range. This allows for a significant increase in the resistance of road surfaces to defects, which is especially important for Russian regions with large daily temperature fluctuations.

    Development of technological potential is one of the key elements of the Rosneft-2030 strategy. The company prioritizes innovation activities and defines technological leadership as a key factor in competitiveness in the oil market.

    To determine the physical and chemical properties of the new grade of bitumen PG 64-28*, the laboratories of Ufa oil refineries were additionally equipped with high-tech analytical equipment, including domestically produced equipment, which determines the quality indicators of both the original and artificially aged bitumen. Work on the implementation of the new technology was carried out jointly with specialists from the corporate research institute in Ufa.

    Unlike the “classic” bitumen binder, the new chemical composition of the PG brand allows for the product’s behavior in asphalt concrete to be predicted in advance and with high accuracy at low and high temperatures. With this approach, road services have the opportunity to select the most suitable bitumen for the construction, reconstruction or repair of roads located in a specific area of a particular climate zone.

    The use of PG grades allows to increase the service life of roads up to 12 years, reduce the costs of repair work, and improve road safety.

    Reference:

    * PG grade bitumens are produced for the construction of highways, where advanced asphalt concrete mixtures with high operational reliability are used. The numbers in the name of the bitumen PG 64 and -28 indicate the maximum and minimum operating temperatures.

    The company produces bitumen at 10 oil refineries located in the Central, Volga and Siberian Federal Districts.

    Rosneft’s key asset in the Republic of Bashkortostan is the Bashneft company. The branches Bashneft-Novoil and Bashneft-Ufaneftekhim are part of the Bashneft oil refining complex.

    At the All-Russian scientific and practical conference “Innovative approaches in urban development: science, education, practice”, organized by the Institute of Civil Engineering of SPbPU, the Committee for Urban Development Policy of the Leningrad Region and the Research Institute of Advanced Urban Development under the patronage of the Russian Academy of Architecture and Construction Sciences, a panel discussion entitled “Digitalization in Urban Development and Architecture” was held.

    Director of the Civil Engineering Institute Marina Petrochenko and Deputy Chairperson of KGIOP Alexandra Komissarova spoke about the joint work of KGIOP and the Polytechnic University to create a methodology for digitalizing the subject of monument protection, presenting a report “Digitalization of Cultural Heritage Sites”. Using the example of the MetaCampus Polytech project, Marina Petrochenko shared her experience in creating digital models of cultural heritage sites and protected items.

    The subject of protection of a cultural heritage site is a document that takes into account all the features of a cultural heritage site that are the basis for its inclusion in the register and are subject to mandatory preservation, including its architectural decoration and design characteristics.

    Work on digitalization of the subject of protection is carried out within the framework of the agreement on information interaction between KGIOP and SPbPU, signed in December 2024.

    In 2024, the Union of Restorers of St. Petersburg outlined the need to create a GOST that could methodically ensure the transition of the main parameters of the subject of protection of a cultural heritage site to digital information models of monument buildings. Today, each expert tries to interpret this document in their own way. We collect successful practices, systematize them and want to offer a methodological development that can facilitate the transition to digital models of protected objects. This will eliminate duality and subjectivity in the interpretation of the subject of protection. As part of cooperation with the Polytechnic University, we are implementing a project to prepare such a GOST, – commented Alexandra Komissarova.

    We are talking about GOST R “Works on the preservation of cultural heritage sites. Rules for the formation and maintenance of an information model of a cultural heritage site. Subjects of protection” (TC 082, TC 505).

    The KGIOP representative also spoke about the features and diversity of cultural heritage sites in St. Petersburg, the documents required to organize work with monuments, the promising possibility of creating a digital model of a cultural heritage site at the design stage, as well as the need to coordinate legislation on the protection of cultural heritage sites and construction legislation.

    Representatives of the Ministry of Construction of Russia, the Russian Academy of Architecture and Construction Sciences, the Committee for Urban Development Policy of the Leningrad Region, the Committee for Urban Development and Architecture of St. Petersburg, the Government of the Leningrad Region, the SAR, the State Institution “GRT LO”, St. Petersburg Polytechnical University, Moscow Architectural Institute, National Research University of Metrology and Civil Engineering, St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, St. Petersburg State Forest University, St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, St. Petersburg State University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics, the Unified Institute of Spatial Planning of the Russian Federation, the Research Institute of Industrial Geosciences, the Research Institute for General Planning of Moscow, the Research Institute for IGSP, LabGrad and others took part in the conference.

    The reports of the panel discussion participants were also devoted to digitalization in urban development and architecture, historical stages, tools and methodological mechanisms of urban development in Russia, as well as the problems of modern master planning.

    On February 17, the Day of Russian Student Teams, a cooperation agreement was signed between Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University and the St. Petersburg regional branch of the youth all-Russian public organization “Russian Student Teams”. The document was signed by the rector of SPbPU Andrey Rudskoy and the commander of SPbRO Alena Chuprova.

    The signed agreement envisages cooperation in the following areas: development of the student brigades movement in St. Petersburg, organization and implementation of events, projects and programs aimed at developing labor, patriotic, spiritual, moral and civic education of students, as well as information interaction.

    Like many Polytechnic University graduates, I have great respect for this movement, since I myself worked as part of construction teams, found real friends and invaluable life experience there. I am glad that student teams are still relevant today, and more and more guys are trying to join them, – noted SPbPU Rector Andrey Rudskoy.

    The meeting was attended by the Vice-Rector for Youth Policy and Communication Technologies of SPbPU Maxim Pasholikov, the commander of the Polytechnic headquarters Anri Oganisyan and the commissioner Alena Vasilyeva, as well as the commander of the North-West Federal District of Russian student brigades Yuri Komolyatov and the chairman of the SPbRO branch Semyon Kiselev. Andrei Rudskoy said that he began working in the SSO from his second year, worked in Karelia, the Leningrad Region, Dombay, the Sayano-Shushenskaya hydroelectric power station, and was the commissioner of the zonal detachment. The rector of SPbPU also shared his memories of his trip in 1978 to the festival of youth and students in Havana.

    We would like to note the enormous contribution of the Polytechnic University to the development of the student brigades movement not only at the university, but also in St. Petersburg. It is safe to say that SPbPU serves as an example to which the headquarters of educational organizations of our city and other regional branches follow, – emphasized the commander of SPbRO Alena Chuprova.

    The Polytechnic University traditionally holds the opening line of the youth patriotic campaign “Nevsky landing”, and this action in St. Petersburg began with the student teams of the Polytechnic University. The SPbPU headquarters has the largest number of linear student teams. The Polytechnic University has most often won the competition for the best headquarters of the SPbRO student teams and the best press center.

    In memory of the meeting, the participants exchanged gifts. Representatives of the SPbRO presented Andrey Rudskoy with a personalized windbreaker of “Nevsky Desant” and a “brick” – a limited badge from the student teams.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Sergey Netesov: “You have to root for the positive”

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    At the popular science marathon “Darwin Week”, a doctor of biological sciences, professor, academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, head of the laboratory of bionanotechnology, microbiology and virology spoke with a report “Evolution of a set of respiratory infections” Faculty of Natural Sciences of NSU Sergey Netesov.

    Evolution of the virus

    In Russia, doctors register 28 to 33 million cases of acute respiratory infections every year, but these are official statistics. When seeing a patient, the doctor fills out a statistical form, which is sent for processing to the health authorities, where statistical data is collected. However, not everyone comes to see a therapist, especially if the disease is mild, preferring to endure it “on their feet” or use home remedies to fight the infection. Such patients are not included in these statistics. Therefore, experts assume that the actual number of cases exceeds the official data at least twice.

    Acute respiratory infections (ARI) are caused by viruses, bacteria, mycobacteria and mycoplasma. In addition, most likely not all pathogens of ARI in humans have been discovered yet.

    Previously, doctors officially diagnosed ARVI without specifying the pathogen and specifically – influenza viruses, and even then the diagnosis was made by the doctor, guided only by the symptoms observed in the patient, and the laboratory diagnostic methods that existed before the 2000s were lengthy, inaccurate and insensitive. More or less reliable test systems for diagnosing influenza viruses based on the polymerase chain reaction PCR method appeared only in the late 90s, and for diagnosing other pathogens – only in the last 5-10 years. The data from a study of the causes of ARVI using the example of one of the counties of the state of Michigan (USA), published in 2002, surprised epidemiologists: influenza was not in the leading positions – its share was only 9%, while ordinary coronaviruses – 14%, rhinovirus – 34%. Unknown infections then accounted for 23%. Later, metapneumoviruses were identified, and their share in the structure of pathogens was about 10% in the category that was previously designated as “unknown infections.” Common coronaviruses, as a rule, have “overtaken” the flu in the share of infected people in the last 20-30 years, but did not pose a serious danger in the form of fatalities – until SARS-CoV-2 appeared, which took millions of lives around the world. At the initial stage of the pandemic, it posed a very serious danger with a mortality rate of up to 6%, but over time, due to the evolution into much less pathogenic variants, it almost equaled the mortality rate of the common flu – 0.1 – 0.2%.

    — The high mortality rate from the new coronavirus infection was due to vascular thrombosis, which was classified as a circulatory disease at the initial stages of the pandemic, and a cytokine storm — an overly aggressive immune response of the body to a viral infection. It manifests itself in different ways, depending on the chronic diseases of the infected person — in the form of circulatory diseases, pneumonia, complications of type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and sometimes — digestive organs. In the first six months of the pandemic, there were no reliable diagnostics for SARS-CoV-2 markers. Partly due to this, some cases of death from the new coronavirus infection were attributed to serious chronic diseases that the deceased patients suffered from – diseases of the circulatory system, respiratory system, endocrine system, etc. In addition, unlike most respiratory diseases, people died from the new coronavirus not during the first two weeks of the disease, but within a month or two, so it was believed that the patient’s death was the result of complications rather than an acute viral disease, explained Sergei Netesov.

    Over the past few years, the deadly coronavirus has evolved towards changing its antigenic properties and reducing pathogenicity, and is no longer as dangerous in terms of mortality as before. Large-scale vaccination of the population, as well as the immunity formed in those who have recovered, have also had an effect, but in terms of morbidity, this virus still sometimes outpaces the combined influenza viruses A and B, and mortality from it has not been reduced to zero. Last fall, 20-30 people died from Covid every week in Russia. These were mainly elderly people with serious chronic diseases.

    Currently, another pathogen of ARVI, the respiratory syncytial virus, is no less dangerous in terms of severe progression and mortality. In certain periods of the 2023-2024 season, its share in the causes of the overall incidence of ARVI was 40%. Scientists and doctors have long found out that it is one of the main causes of severe pneumonia in children and the elderly. Since last year, trials of vaccines against this virus have begun in the European Union and the United States.

    In the winter of 2024, rhinovirus was the leading cause of acute respiratory viral infections in Russia. It has unpleasant symptoms because it causes inflammation of the nasal sinuses, but does not pose a danger to humans.

    — Only in rare cases is the cause of ARI or ARVI only one pathogen, more often two or three. It often happens that the same patient has one or two ARI pathogens — viral and one — bacterial. In this case, the picture of the disease becomes complex. Viral infections, as a rule, prepare the ground for infection with pathogenic bacteria, — said Sergey Netesov.

    Reliable protection

    To reduce the risk of severe respiratory viral infections, it is necessary to get vaccinated in a timely manner, and it is advisable for people at increased risk of severe acute respiratory infections to wear medical masks in public places. Sergei Netesov also spoke about the influenza vaccines used in Russia. According to him, it is necessary to choose, if possible, four-component drugs with a share of 15 micrograms of antigens of each subtype of the virus. At the same time, the probability of severe disease is reduced by about 20-30 times. And for unvaccinated people, increased risks of severe acute respiratory infections remain for people with impaired immune systems, diabetics and representatives of other risk groups.

    In favor of the effectiveness of masks, Sergei Netesov noted that the mask will not hold a single viral particle, because the size of its pores is too large for this. But viruses in the form of single particles do not fly through the air. They move on microdroplets of fluids in our bodies, released from the body when talking, singing, coughing or sneezing. But these drops have a larger diameter and do not pass through the pores of the mask. And even the most primitive mask holds about 75-80% of such particles, of course, if you cover both your mouth and nose with it. And for infection, the size of the pathogen dose that a person receives is very important. Reducing this dose often leads to zeroing out the infection or getting a very small dose – then the disease does not develop quickly, and the body copes with it much easier.

    The flu virus is constantly evolving, and this process is aimed at an important goal for it – to “break through” the previous immunity and infect as many carriers – susceptible people – as possible.

    In early 2024, several publications were published in the United States stating that cow milk yields in some regions of the country had begun to decline; later, veterinarians identified the H5N1 subtype of avian influenza in them. The influenza virus of this subtype was first isolated not only from birds, but also from some sick people in 1997 in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Vietnam. The virus also affected people, with a very high mortality rate. The reason was soon revealed: in most cases, it was a rare mutation characteristic of the inhabitants of these countries, in which one of the receptors in their lungs turned out to be similar to a similar receptor in birds. This feature is not typical for residents of other countries. And so in 2024, the virus spread not only among birds, but acquired new mutations and “switched” to cattle and more. Several dead cats that had previously drunk cow’s milk were found near the barns with sick cows. The cause of their death, like the illness of the cows on the farm, was the avian influenza virus. And although humans and animals do not have many common infections, this virus has become one of them. It turned out that at the end of 2023, the virus acquired mutations that allowed it to move from birds to cattle. From the beginning of 2024 to February 2025, 68 cases of infection of dairy and poultry workers were noted worldwide. It seems that this flu virus has not yet spread widely, but careful monitoring of its evolution is necessary.

    Race for survival

    Scientists believe that the more common this subtype of the virus becomes, the more likely it is to acquire a combination of mutations that will increase the risk of infection in humans. On the other hand, this subtype of flu has been circulating in various bird species and causing rare sporadic infections in humans for more than two decades, but so far there has been no pandemic. This is one of those cases where a pandemic could start next week or never.

    — Not only pathogens of viral diseases evolve, but also our immune system. It is a kind of race. Therefore, it is necessary to study not only pathogens, but also the parameters of our immunity. Increase the number and effectiveness of vaccines, increase the volume of vaccination. This really improves the quality of life of the population and increases its duration. At the same time, long-term monitoring studies are needed to study the occurrence of pathogens, their molecular genetic diversity and molecular evolution, including drug resistance. Russia has the necessary instrumental and material-reactive bases, including its own high-tech production of many (but not all) modern vaccines and diagnostics. But their wider implementation in practice is required. It is also necessary to develop new vaccines against a number of viral and bacterial pathogens. Unfortunately, so far the diagnostic algorithms in our compulsory insurance medicine have been worked out to a minimum — primarily due to underfunding. But it is possible to distinguish a bacterial infection from a viral one using a very simple test for the content of procalcitonin and some other markers in the blood, said Sergei Netesov.

    The scientist also noted that when fighting a viral disease, regardless of what virus caused it, the patient’s psychological state and the support of loved ones are also important. It is important to be sick in a good mood, then recovery will be faster.

    — You should always be positive when you are sick! A person with a bad emotional background is objectively sicker. You need to look to the future with confidence and optimism and tell your body: “Get well.” The human body is a very complex unified system, where all components influence each other. In this case, you need to establish positive feedback between the body and the brain, try to create a good mood for yourself and, of course, follow all the doctor’s recommendations, — said Sergey Netesov.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Limits instead of blocking – banks will receive new tools for working with clients from the fraudsters’ database

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Sours: Mainfin Bank –

    Why is the Central Bank of the Russian Federation easing restrictions on suspicious individuals?

    Federal Law No. 161 regulates the procedure for blocking accounts of clients whose data is contained in a unified database of information on cases of transactions carried out without consent. Also bank has the right to suspend service if information about fraud came from law enforcement agencies. However, tough measures affected not only real criminals – the accounts of legitimate citizens whose data were stolen and used to issue, for example, virtual kart.

    The easing of restrictions is aimed specifically at protecting honest clients who themselves suffered at the hands of fraudsters. Such persons will be able to use bank cards during the inspections, including transfers, but with a maximum amount limit. The sanctions will be completely lifted only after the information is removed from the Central Bank database.

    How will banks respond to suspicious transactions?

    The amendments currently being considered by the State Duma introduce a gradation of measures against suspicious citizens. It is assumed that after the bill is adopted:

    a complete blocking of banking services will be carried out only for clients included in the Central Bank of the Russian Federation database in the presence of an open criminal case; partial restrictions (transfer limit of 100 thousand rubles per month) will be allowed to be set by banks for persons included in the fraudsters database, but who were not subsequently involved in dubious schemes; clients from the “green zone” who were not included in the database or subject to measures of influence by the law enforcement system will be able to be served without restrictions.

    “Partial restrictions will be used when the amount of information received is insufficient, for example, when there are doubts that the client was involved in fraudulent schemes,” the lawyer notes.

    Experts are confident that the relaxations will not affect obvious drops – intermediaries in the activities of fraudsters will continue to be effectively blocked. The choice of restrictive measures will fall on the bank – credit institutions will be able to independently introduce bans and blocking depending on the nature of suspicions.

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Novosibirsk State University – Novosibirsk State University –

    RB.RU is a media outlet for business owners and those who want to become one. RB Chuyka — an annual special project in which the media selects 100 promising Russian company projects. The goal is not just to highlight companies that have shown themselves in the past year, but also to introduce readers to new faces on the market, as well as to show which niches are promising for startups and investors.

    Startup Lexis Voice from NSU Catalist— a special acceleration program from NSU Startup Studios, which helps to reveal creative and scientific potential, create and bring technological projects to the market, was included in the RB Choice rating. Its founders are students of the Higher College of Informatics of NSU and the Faculty of Economics of NSU.

    The Lexis Voice project is a practical simulator for training managers in “cold sales” using artificial intelligence. The system simulates dialogues with clients, analyzes the results and offers recommendations for improving sales skills. This solution frees experienced employees from performing the standard procedure for training newcomers.

    “We help companies with sales departments that want to improve the skills of sales managers and reduce the time for their training through our AI Model, which is able to parody the client’s behavior and give personalized recommendations for training the manager based on his conversation with it,” they write in their telegram channelfounders of the project.

    In 2024, Lexis Voice entered the TOP-5 projects of the Phystech.Idea accelerator from MIPT and successfully conducted a pilot project with Rostelecom. The main goal of the experiment was to identify the key problems that sales managers face during the onboarding process, as well as to assess the potential of the Lexis Voice product being developed to solve these problems.

    — During the experiment, we focused on the following aspects. The first was to analyze existing training methods and their effectiveness. The second was to test the hypothesis that our AI-based training algorithm could significantly reduce the onboarding time for new employees. The third was to evaluate the potential increase in manager performance in the long term. The approach we used included a comparison of the standard employee training process and the updated process we offer, — the developers say.

    The team divided the employees into two groups of four people each: one group underwent the training that the company provides, and the other followed the new algorithm that underlies the product. Results:

    1. The adaptation time was reduced by 5 times in the group that followed the new method.

    2. Managers from the AI group achieved their KPIs faster.

    3. The level of skills in handling objections and closing deals increased by more than 30%.

    More details about the results of the experiment can be found by link.

    It is safe to say that the guys’ hypothesis was confirmed. Acceleration of training, reduction of the workload of senior managers and increase in the efficiency of new employees are indicators that can be reproduced in other companies.

    There is a high probability that this approach can revolutionize this conservative area and significantly change the standard methods of training employees.

    “We are confident that these achievements can be scaled and benefit companies and, most importantly, the people who work in them,” the students conclude.

    Currently, more than 10 companies from various fields, from fitness centers to remote sales departments, are showing interest in implementing the solution.

    In addition to Lexis Voice, the list of 100 promising startups in Russia also included the MPlays project, a service that analyzes external advertising traffic on marketplaces. The startup from Novosibirsk received support from the Innovation Assistance Fund and the federal project University Technological Entrepreneurship Platform.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Marat Khusnullin: In the Siberian Federal District, about 123 thousand people moved from emergency housing

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Government of the Russian Federation – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    Reducing the number of dilapidated housing stock is an important task set by the President for the Russian construction industry. Since 2019, when the program for resettling people from uninhabitable buildings became part of the national project “Housing and Urban Environment”, more than 2.2 million square meters of such housing have been resettled in the Siberian Federal District. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

    “All federal districts in the country are involved in the work on resettling emergency housing. The government has been actively working on the issue of resettling residents from outdated houses for many years. The implementation of this program is a serious and important step towards improving the quality of life of people who live in unsuitable conditions. Since 2019, about 123 thousand citizens have moved from emergency housing to new apartments in the Siberian Federal District. The deterioration of houses is a constant and, unfortunately, irreversible process. Therefore, we continue to work on solving this problem,” said Marat Khusnullin.

    According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the largest volume of emergency housing in the Siberian Federal District was resettled in the Kemerovo Region – Kuzbass – 664.3 thousand square meters, Irkutsk Region – 580.8 thousand square meters, Krasnoyarsk Territory – 360.9 thousand square meters, Novosibirsk Region – 188.6 thousand square meters, Altai Territory – 149.6 thousand square meters.

    The program for resettling citizens from emergency housing stock is supervised by the Russian Ministry of Construction. Its operator is the Territorial Development Fund.

    “Regions are taking a responsible approach to solving the problem of reducing the unsuitable housing stock and improving the quality of life of residents of such houses. In order to speed up the solution of this problem and provide people with modern housing, many regions are additionally resettling emergency houses using their budgets. In the Siberian Federal District, thanks to such work, more than 37 thousand people from the total number of program participants have improved their housing conditions,” said FRT General Director Ilshat Shagiakhmetov.

    Since 2025, the resettlement of houses recognized as unsafe in the regions will continue under the national project “Infrastructure for Life”.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Joint Statement by the Saudi Finance Minister and IMF Managing Director at the conclusion of the Inaugural Al Ula Economic Conference for Emerging Market Economies

    Source: IMF – News in Russian

    February 17, 2025

    Al Ula, Saudi Arabia – February 17, 2025: A two-day inaugural annual global Conference on Emerging Market Economies was held in Al Ula, Saudi Arabia from February 16-17, co-hosted by the Saudi Finance Ministry and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Mohammed Aljadaan, Finance Minister of Saudi Arabia, and Kristalina Georgieva, Managing Director of the IMF, made the following statement at the end of the conference:

    “We would like to thank Emerging Markets policymakers, academics, and representatives of the regional and international financial institutions for joining us and helping to make this first-ever Al Ula Economic Conference for Emerging Market Economies a successful forum for building greater collaboration and discussing the specific challenges facing emerging markets (EMs).

    “Over the past two days, we have discussed how emerging economies can navigate the risks and, importantly how they can embrace the opportunities ahead. One common emerging theme is the importance of unity of purpose and the need to continue working together to sustain EM economies’ resilience to shocks and sustain growth. Three takeaways to highlight:

     “First, this is a time of sweeping transformations—from technology to trade, or climate to capital flows. And these changes are reshaping the global economy. How all these changes will unfold remains to be seen. But we know that in a more uncertain and shock-prone world, building resilience through sound macroeconomic and financial policies must continue to be a priority.

    “Second, emerging markets are seizing these transformations to make their economies stronger. With widespread digitalization and ambitious policies, the prospects for harnessing the benefits of AI are promising. Tapping the potential of AI would enhance Emerging Market Economies’ productivity and resilience, but it will require reforms to boost investments in digital infrastructure and human capital. Deeper regional trade and financial integration would also be important.

    “Third, while these transformations offer great opportunities, we must work together to help avoid the very real risk of some countries falling behind. The first line of defense will of course be strong domestic policies and reforms to help seize these opportunities. But the international community can also support countries and reduce the risk of growing divergence.

    “We are proud to have co-hosted the first global forum that is focused solely on the economic prospects for Emerging Market Economies and we look forward to continuing the discussions in the year ahead and at the second Al Ula conference next year.”

    Tatyana Golikova and Veronika Skvortsova opened the Center for Cognitive and Psychoemotional Health of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia

    Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova and the head of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency Veronika Skvortsova opened the Center for Cognitive and Psychoemotional Health of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia, which was created as a reference model for further scaling throughout the country.

    The center was opened on the basis of the Federal Center for Brain and Neurotechnology of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia, which combines the latest diagnostic and rehabilitation technologies, scientific and human resources potential and is one of the leading medical institutions in the country.

    “Today we have looked a little into the future. This is a unique innovative, scientific, educational, medical and production complex that allows us to develop the latest technologies. The technologies that have become possible here will be distributed throughout the Russian Federation, to those medical institutions that will use these methods and promote them. This is a huge part of the work that the Federal Medical and Biological Agency has done on behalf of the head of state. The development of these technologies became possible as a result of the implementation of the national project “Healthcare” and within the framework of the national projects “Long and Active Life” and “New Health Preservation Technologies” that have been “moving across the country” since January 1, 2025 – a technological leadership project that is designed to develop and promote technologies related to both maintaining health and achieving goals throughout the country,” said Tatyana Golikova.

    The tasks of the Center for Cognitive and Psychoemotional Health include scientific activities, development of new methods of treatment and diagnostics, implementation of new standards of therapy, creation of a system of objective assessment and support of human cognitive health.

    The best specialists are gathered here – neurologists, psychologists, psychotherapists, rehabilitation specialists and psychiatrists – for comprehensive work on the preservation and restoration of cognitive functions.

    In addition, the center’s work focuses on interaction with healthy people. Its goal is to prevent cognitive and psycho-emotional disorders, as well as to draw attention to the need to take care of one’s own mental health.

    “It is important that this reference center for cognitive and psycho-emotional health was created in the high-tech Center for Brain and Neurotechnology, which allows, when signs of ill health are found, to accurately identify the cause of these signs using a variety of diagnostic methods – genetic, morphological, visualization methods, neurophysiology and other functional methods. Thus, to help each person in a personalized, most targeted way,” Veronika Skvortsova emphasized.

    For the first time, a multidisciplinary approach and correction methods and protocols that have proven themselves in neurorehabilitation carried out at the Federal Center for Brain and Neurotechnology of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia have been applied to the correction of cognitive and psychoemotional disorders, which traditionally belong to the field of neurology and psychoneurology. It is rehabilitation approaches that have proven effective in the correction of neurological syndromes.

    A technological algorithm has been created that allows any person, healthy or sick, to undergo testing for basic cognitive functions – memory, attention, speed of thinking and others, to identify anxiety, subdepression, depression, internal excitement and so on.

    The structure of the center includes a scientific department of cognitive disorders, which has access to all the advanced diagnostic and treatment capacities of the Federal Center for Brain and Neurotechnology, and they are also available to the center’s patients. This allows for not only treatment, but also educational and scientific activities. Educational programs have been developed for training specialists of multidisciplinary “cognitive” teams, transfer of the center’s methods – both on the basis of the Brain Center and in a remote format.

    Many cognitive and psycho-emotional health disorders in adulthood and old age have their roots in problems that appear in childhood. Therefore, the Center for Cognitive and Psycho-Emotional Health also accepts children, for which purpose multidisciplinary teams have been created, consisting of leading pediatric neurologists, speech therapists, physical and rehabilitation medicine doctors, and psychologists.

    In addition, the Center for Cognitive and Psycho-Emotional Health implements advanced instrumental methods on unique equipment, mainly of domestic development. In particular, this is a biofeedback complex for improving the psycho-emotional state using machine learning algorithms, devices for visual color-pulse therapy and transcranial electrical stimulation, which help reduce tension, improve sleep and increase resistance to stress.

    This year, it is planned to open 10 such centers in the Federal Medical and Biological Agency system in all federal districts. Round-the-clock telemedicine communication has been established, special educational programs have been developed for each module.

    Alexander Novak took part in the board meeting of the Ministry of Economic Development

    At the meeting, the participants of the board of the Ministry of Economic Development summed up the main results of the department’s work for 2024. The priorities were identified as maintaining macroeconomic stability, mitigating risks in industries and increasing the potential for economic growth.

    “Despite the ongoing sanctions pressure from unfriendly countries, our economy has demonstrated a high degree of resilience. Moreover, it has shown unprecedented growth rates. GDP growth rates in 2024 amounted to 4.1%, over the past two years – 8.4%. They were the highest in the last decade. The achieved indicators are higher than the global average and significantly higher than the growth rates of Western economies. In nominal terms, since 2020, Russian GDP has doubled and amounted to 200 trillion rubles at the end of last year. Budget revenues were doubled, and the share of oil and gas revenues was reduced. This indicates the diversification of the Russian economy,” said Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak, opening the board meeting.

    Taking into account the current challenges, the work of the Government and the Ministry of Economic Development, in particular, is focused on solving three main tasks, noted Minister of Economic Development Maxim Reshetnikov in his report. “The first is ensuring macro stability. Together with the Bank of Russia and the Ministry of Finance, we are working on the interrelationship of monetary and fiscal policy,” he explained and recalled that this topic was discussed in January at a strategic session led by the Prime Minister.

    The second task is to mitigate risks in individual sectors due to the consequences of tightening monetary policy. The third block of questions is related to the growth of the economy’s potential. “We estimate the economy’s potential at 3% per year and believe that this parameter is achievable,” the minister confirmed.

    The head of the department emphasized the need for further support of investments in the regions and the development of existing support mechanisms. Thus, last year, special economic zones appeared in three regions (Rostov and Tver regions, Mordovia), and were expanded in seven. “A record 230 new residents came. There are 1,300 of them in total, which means that every fifth investor came last year,” he said.

    With the support of the State Duma Committee on Economic Policy, the criteria for creating SEZs have been updated to allow for the development of individual specializations. The entry threshold for investments in technical sovereignty projects has been lowered. The ban on residents pledging lease rights to state-owned land has been lifted so that investors can attract loans at the construction stage.

    The first stage of work on mechanisms that help build infrastructure for investors has been completed. “This year, the task is to restart them, preserving the main principle: to focus on projects that have effects for the economy. They will generate taxes, not costs,” added Maxim Reshetnikov.

    “We will continue to improve the business climate: reduce costs and barriers within the framework of the TDC [transformation of the business climate], reengineering the rules of industrial construction, regional and municipal investment standards. Now, together with the Agency for Strategic Initiatives, we are restarting the national business model,” the minister said.

    Speaking about other priorities for work in 2025, the head of the Ministry of Economic Development emphasized the importance of developing state statistics. A large-scale project has already been launched to digitalize statistics, collect information, and combine data with departmental systems. The task is to create a single digital statistics platform, take all interactions to a new level, reduce data processing time and the reporting burden on businesses, he noted.

    Another important area is the OKVED reform. A law has been passed that assumes that the OKVED code will not be what the enterprise once determined during registration, but will reflect the real economic structure of its activities. A lot of interdepartmental work is ahead to switch to the new system. “This is important for the formation of adequate statistics. On the other hand, we will receive an instrument of mass support for enterprises,” the minister said.

    “The Federation Council has developed very productive relations with the economic bloc of the Government. We meet almost weekly to discuss further measures to ensure the stability of the financial sector and various sectors of the economy,” said Deputy Chairman of the upper house of parliament Nikolai Zhuravlev.

    “There are many joint issues on the agenda of the relevant committees of the Federation Council. Among them are the implementation of the Strategy for Spatial Development of Russia, support for long-term investments, and reduction of the administrative burden on business. And of course, the key task for the Federation Council remains the work on improving the investment climate in the regions,” he added.

    Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Economic Policy Maxim Topilin, in turn, noted the importance of the extensive legislative work carried out by the Ministry of Economic Development. As an example, he cited the law on creative industries, on technology policy, and changes to the law on concessions. In addition, according to him, existing support measures need to be accumulated within a single Internet platform, similar to government services.

    “Even seven or eight years ago, government services existed, in essence, in the form of a description of certain administrative regulations. Today, most of them can be obtained electronically. For business structures, it is necessary to set the task of creating similar access to the full range of support measures, everything related to preferential regimes,” the deputy said.

    Source: Central Bank of Russia –

    In 2024, 34% of citizens who took part in cyber fraud encountered various typessurvey Bank of Russia. At the same time, 9% of those who contacted the criminals lost money. Based on this and other data, the regulator compiled portrait of the victim cyber fraudsters.

    As well asa year earlier, in 2024, women aged 25 to 44 with an average income and secondary education most often fell for the tricks of intruders. As a rule, these are city dwellers who should be more careful about following the rules of cybersecurity: use a strong password, do not share bank card details or codes from SMS messages with strangers. Last year, the proportion of elderly people among victims increased slightly.

    Telephone and SMS fraud, as well as fraud via messengers, still prevail. Among the most popular methods of deception is also gaining access to people’s accounts on Gosuslugi. It is noteworthy that victims usually follow the link sent by the attackers and also voluntarily transfer money to them.

    Most of the victims noted that their losses due to the actions of fraudsters did not exceed 20 thousand rubles. However, the share of large transfers increased: from 100 to 500 thousand rubles. Most of the respondents (more than 70%) lost their own savings after communicating with the attackers, and 15% of the victims gave them the credit money. The deceived began to report thefts more often: 42.8% contacted their bank, 30% – the police.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Congratulations on the Day of Russian Student Teams

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: State University of Management – Official website of the State –

    This year marks the 66th anniversary of the Russian student brigade movement. And 10 years ago, by Decree of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin, an official holiday was established for the participants of student brigade groups.

    The spring of 1959 is considered to be the time when the detachments emerged, when a group of 339 students from the Lomonosov Moscow State University went to work on a construction site in the North Kazakhstan region, where virgin lands were being developed at the time. However, this date is also very conditional, since university students had been involved in agricultural work, large construction projects, and laying railways since 1920.

    In the summer of 1962, the commanders of student detachments from leading Moscow universities wrote a collective letter to the General Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee Nikita Khrushchev asking him to support their movement. He gave the go-ahead, and on November 15, 1963, the first All-Union Rally of the VSSO took place in the Kremlin Palace of Congresses, where a single Charter for all student detachments was adopted.

    Since then, the movement has acquired a truly grand scale. Student brigades participated in the development of virgin lands, the development of gas fields in Tyumen, the construction of the BAM, the Moscow metro, the VAZ and KAMAZ plants, the Sayano-Shushenskaya hydroelectric power station and other large facilities. Thanks to their activities, many settlements were founded, including the cities of Bratsk and Ust-Ilimsk. Over the years of the movement’s existence, tens of millions of students passed through it. The apogee was reached in 1982, when the one-time number of construction brigade fighters reached almost 550 thousand people.

    During their student years, the current President of Russia Vladimir Putin, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergey Lavrov, the Chairperson of the Federation Council Valentina Matviyenko and many other famous people had the opportunity to work in construction teams.

    Of course, this movement did not pass by the State University of Management, which in the heyday of student brigades was called the Moscow Engineering and Economic Institute. The modern campus of the university was built with the most active participation of its students. Among them were the current professor of the Department of Information Systems Vladimir Godin, professor of the Department of Project Management Alexey Lyalin, deputy chairman of the primary trade union organization of GUU employees Nikolay Nesterov, professor of the Department of Management Theory of the Institute of Public Administration and Law Alexander Raichenko and others. We talked with the latter about the history of student brigades at GUU.

    Alexander Vasilyevich, please tell us how the student work brigade movement began at our State University of Management and about your experience in them.

    — It all started for us much earlier than I started participating in it. I first came to the construction team in August 1968, after I was enrolled as a first-year student. That year, we were sent to prepare the construction site of the university complex in the garden near the metro station, which is now called Vykhino. In addition, we already had construction teams in the Moscow region and teams that were engaged in harvesting agricultural products on state farms in the Moscow and Astrakhan regions. Then, starting in 1969, we began very large-scale construction of our complex.

    Every year, 300 to 700 students worked here – this was our main construction site. Some worked not only in the summer months. In connection with this, their curriculum was redrawn, but they completed it in full. The next most important detachment was the agricultural harvesting detachment of approximately 600 people, who went to work in the Astrakhan region almost every year from 1969 to 1981.

    Where else in the country, besides Astrakhan, did our detachments work? After all, the movement is known for its all-Union construction projects.

    — Large construction teams worked in Siberia. Every year, two or three teams worked on the construction of the first line of the Baikal-Amur Mainline. We worked on the construction of the Khrebtovaya-Ust-Ilimsk branch, the settlement of Igirma. 120 of our students worked there for two years. And some time later, we worked for another two years in the settlement of Zvezdny, also on the BAM. We also had teams in the Gorno-Altai Region. In 1969, there were about eight teams there, from each faculty. And in the Uzhur District of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, in the settlement of Shchetinkino, they were building a large residential complex. There were also some rather exotic places to work. One of the teams worked on industrial and civil construction in the settlement of Mirny, in Yakutia, the diamond capital of Russia. This was an unexpected appointment for us, but our students showed themselves well there.

    What practical benefits did these works provide to students?

    — The experience that students gained in construction teams was very helpful. I know more than 30 current managers who gained their first experience in production activities in student teams. Today they hold respectable positions, from the head of the construction and installation department to the governor of the region.

    And who from the current faculty of the State University of Management used to work in construction teams?

    — I know more than 20 people working at the university today who had such experience. The thing is that this work was considered as industrial practice. Rector of MIEI Olimpiada Vasilyevna Kozlova defined this activity as the first immersive industrial practice. It was not industry-specific, but it provided real and useful experience. Almost 100% of students, with the exception of those who could not participate in the work due to physical condition, were involved in one or another detachment. And the most active did this throughout the entire period of study. That is, every year, starting in May, when our quartermasters left, and ending in October, when the final results were summed up and we settled accounts with our customers, they actively participated in this work.

    We have an archive photo of MIE students in Czechoslovakia. Did our guys go anywhere else abroad?

    — What you are talking about was an interesting practice, it was called “currency-free exchange”. Student teams from our university were sent to four countries: the German Democratic Republic, Czechoslovakia (Charles University was a major partner of ours), Bulgaria (we had strong and long-term ties with it, our teams went there almost every year), and there were also ties with the Polish People’s Republic, although to a lesser extent. The same number of students from the universities with which we cooperated came from these countries. They worked for us, as a rule, on the construction of buildings for our university. Our students abroad worked at various sites, on construction sites of the national economy and the like.

    Today, RSO is 400 thousand young people from 85 regions of Russia who cooperate with more than 1000 employers, including Russian Railways, Rosatom, Gazprom, EkoNiva, Artek and other large organizations. Thus, students not only gain practical skills in professional activities, but also help solve important economic problems, form the country’s personnel reserve.

    “This is a unique school of life that shapes not only professional and personal qualities, but also the desire to live and develop in the native country. We are proud that the guys are becoming part of a big cause – strengthening the economy and social sphere of Russia. The contribution of the student brigades is an investment in the future of our country,” said the head of the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs (Rosmolodezh), associate professor of the Department of State and Municipal Administration of the State University of Management Grigory Gurov.

    Let us recall that at the end of last year, the State University of Management signed a cooperation agreement with the RSO and this spring will begin active joint work in the area of pedagogical and educational activities, as well as the work of service departments.

    We congratulate everyone involved in the movement on the holiday! We wish you success in work and study, as well as a lot of pleasant impressions from business trips and communication with new acquaintances.

    Source: State University of Management – Official website of the State –

    On February 13-14, 2025, the XXII International Forum “Gas of Russia 2025” was held in Moscow, organized by the Union of Oil and Gas Industry Organizations “Russian Gas Society”. Advisor to the Rector’s Office of the State University of Management Sergey Karseka took part in it.

    The Gas of Russia Forum is a specialized event that annually brings together professionals and experts in the gas industry, heads of Russian government bodies, the largest Russian and foreign oil and gas companies, representatives of industry science and higher education institutions. The main goal is a professional discussion of the most pressing issues of the development of the Russian gas industry in the context of events on the global energy market.

    The key theme of the XXII Forum is the development strategy of the industry and overcoming the main challenges.

    During the event, the participants discussed the following issues: – training personnel for the oil and gas industry in modern conditions; – strategy for the development of the oil and gas industry for 10 years; – improving legislation in the interests of the development of the industry; – challenges and solutions to technological problems of the industry.

    Greetings to the Forum were sent by Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak and Minister of Energy of the Russian Federation Sergey Tsivilev.

    The main moderator was the President of the Russian Gas Society, the President of the Union of Employers of the Oil and Gas Industry, and the First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Energy, Pavel Zavalny.

    At the opening of the event, State Secretary – Deputy Minister of Energy of the Russian Federation Anastasia Bondarenko noted that by 2029, the Russian economy’s need for personnel will grow to 3.1 million people.

    “At present, the task is to formulate a forecast in the structure of needs for specialists,” the deputy minister concluded.

    In his speech during the session “HR Podium: Open Dialogue between Employers and Students,” Sergey Karseka outlined a wide range of topics and areas of potential cooperation between the State University of Management and oil and gas universities and enterprises.

    “It is very important to train specialists, but without basic knowledge of the fundamentals of management, the efficiency of managers in the oil and gas industry will be reduced. On this path, the State University of Management offers its assistance and cooperation in solving the personnel problems facing employers,” noted Sergey Ivanovich.

    Specific issues of cooperation and details of the implementation of joint projects were discussed with key representatives of the oil and gas and energy industries: Marina Voronina, Head of the Oil and Gas Academy project of the Russian Gas Society, Yulia Dunayevskaya, Head of the HR Department of Gazprom Transgaz Moscow LLC, and Violetta Kiushkina, Head of the Department of Energy Security and Infrastructure of the Russian Energy Agency of the Ministry of Energy of Russia. Of particular interest was the experience of the State University of Management in interaction with other ministries: Violetta Kiushkina invited the university experts to participate in the working events of the Ministry of Energy, noting the lack of management expertise and alternative approaches when discussing important industry issues.

    Denis Manturov visited the International Defense Industry Exhibition IDEX-2025 in Abu Dhabi

    First Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Denis Manturov, who heads the Russian delegation to the UAE, visited the international conference and exhibition of the defense industry IDEX 2025 in Abu Dhabi. The Russian exposition was also visited by Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi Khaled bin Mohammed Al Nahyan.

    This year, the Russian exposition, the total area of which exceeds 2 thousand square meters, will feature a record number of new weapons, military and special equipment from 40 leading domestic companies. Some models are being demonstrated abroad for the first time. For example, the T-90MS tank in an updated appearance based on the experience of real combat operations, which has unique tactical and technical characteristics. Among the world premieres are also the Pantsir-SMD-E air defense missile and gun system with new guided missiles for destroying UAVs, the Kub-1-1E and Kub-2-2E loitering munitions, and the Kornet-EM ATGM with a remote control and a Bulat guided missile. The Lancet-E loitering munition and the Berezhok combat compartment are being presented in the Middle East for the first time.

    “We selected the most high-tech models that have proven their performance in real combat. The Russian models presented here are different from the others shown at the exhibitions in that they can interact in a complex, successfully resist and defeat the equipment of competitors, who are also present at the exhibition, in real combat,” Denis Manturov noted.

    At IDEX 2025, Russian helicopter manufacturers presented a line of helicopters for the effective work of emergency services. Among them are the latest modification of the Ka-32A11M firefighting helicopter, the Mi-38 helicopter with a high-comfort cabin, as well as the Ansat in two versions: ambulance and police.
