What's going on with our InteRussia journalism participants? 🔍

On May 23, our fellows visited the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

There, they met with Deputy Director Vasily Kuznetsov, who gave them a crash course on the institute's history and international collaborations. He also shed light on Russia's foreign policy priorities in the Middle East region.

The conversation then took an exciting turn as they delved into the nitty-gritty of security in North Africa, the recent flare-up of tensions between Palestine and Israel, and the current state of Russia-Egypt relations.

Lots of new information for our participants! Keeping our finger on the pulse!

Immersing in the Russian Literature 🪶

Our Russian Studies fellows have embarked on intensive weeks of study at the Pushkin Institute in Moscow. With three lectures per day, these eager learners are diving deep into the fascinating world of Russian Studies and literature.

The lectures cover a wide range of topics, from the interplay between philology and culture to the role of reading complex texts in personal development.

For example, yesterday’s lectures included:

✅ Corpus research in language didactics and the corpus projects of the Pushkin Institute

✅ The phenomenon of the Golden Age and the Silver Age in Russian literature

At the end of each day, the fellows meet with their scientific supervisors to discuss the projects they are working on during their stay in Russia. This hands-on approach ensures that our fellows receive personalized guidance and support as they apply their newfound knowledge to real-world projects.

That's right! This week, our foreign specialists arrived in Novosibirsk, more than 3,000 kilometers from Moscow, for their fellowship that is being undertaken at the Akademgorodok.

Akademgorodok, which translates to "Academic Town," is a unique scientific research center located in the heart of Novosibirsk. Established in the 1950s, It’s home to numerous research institutes, universities, and innovative companies, all nestled within a picturesque forest setting.

The fellows have been divided into three cutting-edge fields:

🌃 Artificial Intelligence in an Urban Environment (Smart City)

🩺 Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

💻 Information Technology and Photonics

During their stay, they will work closely with their scientific supervisors, who are experts in all there fields. In addition to their hands-on work, they will have the opportunity to visit the laboratories of NSU and explore the cutting-edge facilities and equipment available at the university.

As they embark on this adventure in the heart of Siberia, our foreign specialists will not only gain professional experience but also have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the unique culture and breathtaking natural beauty of the region.

Some were stepping into the shoes of a news anchor, others were recording standups, and a few were practicing their voiceover skills. Talk about a multitasking dream team!

But hey, all that hard work is going to pay off. Just imagine the mind-blowing reports they'll bring back home! We can already picture the headlines: "InteRussia Fellows Take Over the Airwaves!"

✏️ Fancy being just like them? Applications are now open for our new programme for journalists from BRICS countries!
