• ITMO Graduate’s Project Wins Lexus Design Award

  …ople with only one hand are quite narrow a target audience, I got the idea to make the project good for not just them, but anyone. In other words, the carving board had to be both functional and attractive, so that everyone would want one. Why not turn people’s capabilities into opportunities? So, we expanded the target audience. Many people like talking on the ph…

• "Travel Is The Key To A Career In Science": Biophotonics Specialist Maria Borovkova On How To Be Successful, While Studying And Working In Three Countries

  … out light signals to biological samples and analyze the light that comes out, and thus, has interacted with their structure. I conduct such experiments both in transmission and reflection modes. I then analyze the properties of light, which change after interaction with the sample: radiation intensity, spectral composition, polarizatio…

• Fabio Bagarello on Quantum Computing and Importance of Interdisciplinary Research

  …um computers should help in solving this issue of size vs. power. Some of ITMO’s laboratories conduct a lot of research on predictive modeling: of crowd behavior, spreading of infections and other processes. How will quantum computing affect the operation of such models? It’s hard to say now, because we do not have any operational quantum computers yet. So, we …
