Also, Academician Andrey Rudskoy, as Vice-President of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) and Chairman of the Saint Petersburg Branch of the RAS, visited the M. N. Mikheev Institute of Metal Physics of the Ural Branch of the RAS. This is the largest academic institute in the Ural Federal District, conducting research in magnetism, physical materials science, spintronics, and computer modeling of materials. The meeting was also attended by the Vice-President of the RAS, Chairman of the Ural Branch of the RAS, Academician Viktor Rudenko. During the meeting with the institute director, Academician Nikolay Mushnikov, and RAS Academician Alexey Makarov, the sides discussed prospects for deepening cooperation between the scientific schools of Saint Petersburg and the Urals, the transition from fundamental research to practice-oriented projects, as well as issues of technological sovereignty.
INNOPROM is a key platform for demonstrating scientific achievements that define the technological leadership of industry. The visit to IFM Ural Branch of RAS confirms the enormous potential of Ural science. I am convinced that combining the competencies of the Saint Petersburg and Ural Branches of RAS will raise the creation of critically important technologies for the country’s sovereignty to a new level. We need to shift from fundamental research to practical-oriented projects within the framework of state programs, — Andrey Rudskoy.
