• NSP2018: Scientists Discuss Nanostructures in Photonics

  …here so far? The first experiments began in September, and I’ve just received the first results, which will soon be published. Right now we’re focused on two of the laser’s instruments, which are used for structural biology and femtosecond chemistry research; you could say that these are the top-priority areas of research for us. We’ve already got some very good r…

• Scientists Develop Improved Model for Study of Zika Virus

  … in each cell. "This data helped us monitor the cell response to the infection. This is what our research is about. We compared the changes in the cells caused by two strains of the Zika virus: natural and mouse-adapted. It turned out that the activity of genes for the production of interferon, the main modulator of the immune response, was the same for both str…

• ITMO University Invites Young Scientists to Study Graphene-Type 2D Materials

  …which are produced when an exciton interacts with a photon. Exciton-polaritons are incredibly interesting and lead the way to studying such unusual physical phenomena as Bose-Einstein condensation and polaritons superfluidity. Exciton-polaritons have practical applications, too, for instance in the creation of polaritons lasers with ult…
