Herzen University and ITMO Specialists Develop a Bot that Helps Prepare for the Unified State Exam in Chemistry
…The idea Ekaterina Korsakova, the founder of the project and a Master’s student in Herzen University’s Chemistry Education program, says she decided to create this bot several years ago. “The idea came to me a long time ago. I wanted to optimize my job as a tutor in order to avoid responding to the same questions of my students several times a day. As a resul…

ITMO University Researchers Test Innovative Pharmacy Refrigerator
…s is also controlled for during testing. A refrigerator’s compliance with the standards set is not, however, the only thing that needs to be checked. Other important characteristics are its energy efficiency and the amount of noise it produces, for if it is too loud it can badly affect the well-being of healthcare specialists working beside it. It’s no wonder tha…

ITMO PhD Student Dmitry Zhirihin Receives Prestigious IEEE Graduate Fellowship
…ed topological insulators were discovered a while ago (Nobel Prize 2016). These structures act like insulators, because there is no current inside them. The surface of these materials, however, can pass a current. What I am working on are electromagnetic analogs of topological insulators, where the current is transmitted by electromagnetic waves. Thus, these structur…

Scientists Develop Light-emitting Composite Material Based on Perovskite Nanocrystals with Air- and Water Resistant Optical Characteristics
…Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are one of the most investigated objects in modern Materials Science. They possess excellent optical properties, such as pure and bright emission, which make them attractive for implementation in modern laser systems. In particular, the use of perovskite nanocrystals may lead to micro-scale lasers, which can be employed for the vis…

Don’t Leave the Room, Don’t Make a Mistake and Run: Poems Every Russian Knows
…ms by heart and reciting them in front of a class equips us with a belief in the power of words, a chance to develop our public speaking skills and give us loads of practice material for active memorization (as opposed to rote learning). All in all, the idea behind it doesn’t seem so bad, though I won’t claim it always works flawlessly. Lines from classical times …

ITMO Researchers' Improved Text Recognition Algorithm Helps Analyze Century-Old Russian Texts
… Theodora, Fevronia, Iolanta, or Mazepa. These proved to be the key pitfalls for the algorithms. “We proposed additional heuristics that would analyze the extracted material, conduct frequency analysis, and use the results to improve on the extraction parameters,” explains Ivan Smetannikov. “Essentially, we’ve created an additional post-processing unit that …

School Students from All Over Russia and Belarus Take Part in the Congress of Young Scientists
… the Laboratory for Continuous Mathematical Education. For two years straight our school arranged summer expeditions to the Barents Sea. I participated in them and collected material for my research. At the congress, I presented results of studying polymorphism in the populations of gastropod mollusk Testudinalia tesselata in the littoral zone of the Barents Sea. It …
