Codeforces Founder Will Teach Web Development at ITMO
… I had a very good math teacher, who first exposed me to the beauty of mathematics. That was where I started programming as well. Back then, I didn’t have a PC, so my computer science classes were the only place where I could practice coding. I also realized that I liked competitions and even managed to win a few. Then I entered the university where I met lots of lik…

Two Cities, 200 Participants, One Ride: Bike Ride with Rector 9.0
…a before, but it’s my first time in Sochi, and I’m very grateful for the opportunity to visit the Olympic Park. The weather is fine, and we even tried to swim in the sea. Many scientists are active sports enthusiasts, and I’m no exception. My favorite sports are swimming and skiing. Dragomir Neshev, Australian National University It’s a very interesting ini…

Scientists Develop New Analysis Method of Non-Linear Optical Properties
…Research In their article, published in Optics Letters, the scientists have shown how they were able to use automated image processing to extract and analyze weak nonlinear signals caused by an ultra-short laser beam passing through a sample. The approach is based on analysis and processing of registered axial digital holograms, i.e. diffraction patterns of a femt…

Nobel Prize Laureate Andre Geim: ‘Science is a Lifelong Marathon, Not a 100-Meter Sprint’
…oughly speaking, do not have any width, as one-atom width is as close to that as you can get. In a way, graphene is a little snowball that brought about a massive avalanche in science. This field, however, was that of gradual development. Nowadays, people work with two-dimensional materials which have already been known for ten years at least; we were the first explo…

Master of Sports Anastasia Murzina: “Orienteering Helps Better Understand Multidimensional Space”
…asn’t much, as we mostly focused on physics. After I graduated, I decided that I want to learn to code better. On the other hand, I already had a keen understanding of natural sciences, so I thought: why not continue my education at ITMO University, where they train the world's best programmers? I applied to different universities; in some, I had to take exams, in…

Researchers Investigate Correlation Between Blood Flow and Body Position
…Thanks to collaboration between medical scientists and engineers, new non-contact methods of blood flow parameters investigation are being developed and implemented. The technique of imaging photoplethysmography is among the most popular ones. This optical method allows researchers to detect both the velocity of the pulse wave moving from the heart to tissues and amp…

ITMO.STARS Winners Share Their Experience
…re courses in Pascal, but I was the only one attending. But I still loved programming and when the course ended I continued studying on my own and started programming in C. Science, business, my own company? I don’t really think it’s my thing. But I would really like to launch a company producing innovative products that can make life easier. That was the purpose …
