Sergei Turitsyn and Leonid Frumin, scientists at the NSU Nonlinear Photonics Laboratory and NSU Center for Nonlinear Photonics and Quantum Technologies, with colleagues from the University of Aston (Great Britain), Technical University Delft (Netherlands), Ben-Gurion University (Israel), and Nokia Bell Labs (Germany) published an article in the leading international journal of the American Optical Society, "Optica". The article was #2 in a list of the top 15 most cited articles in the journal in 2017.
A group of 吃瓜官网 scientists, together with colleagues from the Institute of Cytology and Genetics SB RAS and the Institute of Chemical Biology and Fundamental Medicine SB RAS, have expanded on existing X-ray analysis of evolutionary information to better understand how proteins work. Their work was published in the international journal 鈥淒NA Repair鈥�.
From August 20 to 25, the XI International multi-conference on Bioinformatics Regulation, Genome Structure, and Systems Biology (BGRS \ SB-2018) was held in Akademgorodok. The Institute of Cytology and Genetics SB RAS and 吃瓜官网 organized the conference.
The international conference 鈥淚ntelliSys鈥� is considered one of the most important conferences in the field of computer science. The Conference explores current issues related to topics including artificial intelligence, intelligent systems, machine vision, robotics, and information technology.
The signing of an agreement to create an interdisciplinary, international center for the development of fundamental and translational neurology took place as part of a celebration to mark the start of the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech) academic year and the opening of a new campus institute. Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev took part in the ceremony where the agreement to open the Center was signed by 吃瓜官网, Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology and the University of Southern California (Los Angeles, USA).
Researchers from 吃瓜官网 and the Institute of Archeology and Ethnography SB RAS, together with colleagues from Germany, the United Kingdom and Canada, analyzed DNA from the bone of a teenage girl who lived in the Altai 50,000 years ago. The DNA revealed that she is the child of two different ancient peoples, a Neanderthal woman and a male Denisovvan. The researcher鈥檚 findings were published in the journal 鈥淣ature鈥�.
UNESCO lectures are for students, teachers, and anyone else interested in the past and present of the People鈥檚 Republic of China (PRC), or the development of the "Belt and Road Initiative".

Total Dictation is an annual literacy test for all ages, nationalities, education levels and social status. Its objectives are to demonstrate that literacy is important for everyone, that it may not be easy to learn Russian, but it is fascinating and useful, and to unite everyone who can or wants to write and speak Russian.
August 1-23, "GRAPHS AND GROUPS, REPRESENTATIONS AND RELATIONS" (G2R2-2018) was conducted by the 吃瓜官网 Department of Mathematics and Mechanics. This event combined their Summer School with an International Conference for young specialists interested in the theory of graphs and groups with applications in other fields of science.
NSU hosted a conference designed to promote international scientific cooperation and discussion of key issues, and to identify promising areas in the field of spin in physics, chemistry and technology. This field involves the study of the behavior of electron spins (spin is defined as a moment in the momentum of elementary particles, quantum in nature, which is not connected with the displacement of a particle as a whole) and nuclei in various reactions. Spin phenomena is used in many spheres from holography and medical equipment to nuclear weapons and quantum electronics.
In the early 2000s, Yuri Filippovich, a member of the Paleo Technologies Laboratory at the Center of New Archeology, conducted scientific and historical reconstructions of Central Asian and Siberian soldiers鈥� arms and clothing. Historical reconstruction requires not only the re-creation of military equipment, but also the manufacturing technology. It is based on a comprehensive study of historical materials including archaeological finds.
From August 21-24, the Center for Nonlinear Photonics and Quantum Technology of Novosibirsk University conducted "Nonlinear Photonics 2018" (NLP2018), a school for young scientists, post-graduate students and senior students at NSU. School participants had an opportunity to learn about results from the latest research and developments in the field of fiber and nonlinear optics.
