Exploring the Mysteries of the Brain 🔍

Our fellows never miss the opportunity to visit Skoltech, and this time was no exception. The young specialists in medicine delved into the Skoltech Center for Neurobiology and Brain Rehabilitation's exciting work.

Founded in 2018, Skoltech Neuro is engaged in scientific research and innovative developments for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of nervous and cognitive disorders. It strives to be a leader in the field of neurobiology in Russia, driving forward new discoveries and breakthroughs that will transform the understanding and treatment of neurological and cognitive disorders.

As part of their fascinating journey, our fellows attended the Laboratory of Brain-Computer Interfaces and the Laboratory of Molecular Neuroscience. Here, they uncovered some techniques that are used to study the brain and heal neurological and mental diseases:

🧠 transcranial magnetic stimulation that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells and influence the brain's natural electrical activity;

🧠 metabolite extraction from plasma that helps to better understand metabolic changes linked to brain disorders;

🧠 molecular methods for studying biological fluids and tissues.

They also learned how fundamental research paves the way for developing clinical methods used to assess and rehabilitate patients after neurological сonditions.

The human brain holds countless secrets, and with every new discovery, we move closer to understanding its vast potential 🧠

Happy Teacher's Day! ⚡️

As autumn leaves begin to fall, Russia turns its attention to a very special group of people. Today, October 5th, is Teacher's Day – a celebration of the men and women who dedicate their lives to education.

This holiday has been observed in Russia since 1965, initially on the first Sunday of October. In 1994, it was officially moved to October 5th to align with World Teachers' Day. It's a day when students, both past and present, express their gratitude to teachers through kind words, flowers, and small gifts.

For us in the InteRussia program, this day holds a special significance. It's a chance to recognize not only school teachers but also the professional mentors who've guided our fellows through the fellowship.

Share with us about the person who became your greatest teacher during your programme. Let's celebrate these unsung heroes who helped shape your professional journey!

Technological Odyssey Concludes at InteRussia ⚡️

Last month, Skoltech transformed into a vibrant home for bright minds from Azerbaijan, Ecuador, Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Kazakhstan, Mali, Nigeria, Tunisia, and Sierra Leone. These are our fellows in the InteRussia in Agrobiotechnologies and Wireless Technologies. For four weeks, they've lived and breathed innovation, turning Moscow into their laboratory of ideas and cross-cultural exchange.

Here's a snapshot of their adventures:

🔗Immersing in the Innovation Workshop at Skoltech
🔗Exploring agrobiotechnologies at industry giants: Uralchem and PhosAgro
🔗Diving into the world of tech innovation at Aquarius
🔗Engaging with experts from Transtelecom and Agroexport
🔗Experiencing Russian culture through ballet at the Kremlin Palace, visits to Zaryadye Park, and tours of Moscow

The program culminated in project presentations, where our fellows, guided by their scientific supervisors, showcased their work on innovation in wireless technologies and advanced agrobiotechnology research.

As InteRussia wraps up, we're reminded that every ending is a new beginning when it comes to science. Our fellows have left Moscow, but their journey in shaping the future of agrobiotechnologies and wireless technologies is just taking off.
