Good Product Is a User-Friendly Product: ITMO Student Working on Interface Design Framework for People with Dyslexia
…h dyslexia Tell us a bit more about your project. How did you come up with such an idea? It was last year that I chose the topic of my research. In Tallinn, I continued studying this topic, read a lot of materials, talked to lecturers. After a while, it became obvious that there was not so much information about interface design for people with dyslexia and thi…

Bioinformatics Specialist Alexey Komissarov on Gaps in Genomic Studies and Plans to Close Them
…s sable, yellow-throated marten, stone marten, Siberian weasel, and Vietnamese weasel. These samples will be relatively easy for us to get. In the first year, we’ll conduct a study of yellow-throated martens, animals with a yellow-green coloring. This species is part of regional red lists of threatened species in many places in Russia. We’re collaborating with Alexey…

Mahdi Akhlaqi: The Attitude We Have Towards Ourselves Makes Us Who We Are And Who We Will Be
…hat I chose ITMO as my Master’s degree university. When you knew you were coming to Russia, did you have any concerns about education or culture? Because Russia was my study destination, at first, I was caring and thinking more about education and things along those lines. That's why my priority was to research the education system and the academic expectation…

ITMO Scientists and Mariinskaya Hospital Specialists Are Developing a New Thrombolytic Drug
…ots in test tubes. These are test tube remnants of blood samples that are taken from patients as part of biochemical and clinical tests and then disposed of at the end of the study. It’s these clots that we used, they were depersonalized, there were no patients data on them. For us, the clots were what’s important – their sizes, their lifetime, etc. Such tests are…

Daniil Sharov on Being a Physicist and a Science Communicator
… everything to be perfect: the demonstration, the lesson itself, the way you grade their homework. If you liked it that much, why didn’t you start teaching and went on to study science communication instead? When I graduated, I kept wondering whether I could be a good teacher, if I was even capable of presenting my subject in an entertaining way. To get inspi…

Scientists Create Listeriosis-Immune Mice by Turning off Gene in Myeloid Cells
…eria? Biologists and geneticists all over the world seek answers to these questions. In order to understand how the immune system works, scientists conduct experiments and study mice populations in which the animals possess certain non-functioning genes as a result of prolonged targeted cross-breeding. When this approach, known to scientists as “gene knockout”, re…

International Team of Scientists Discover New Phenomenon in Topological Physics
…e was awarded for an associated research. Topological shifts offer an opportunity to substantially change the properties of some materials that are used in electronics. While studying the properties of the topological phase of matter, scientists discovered new materials with unique properties that are called topological insulators. “In nature, there are insulato…
