On December 19, 2024, the eighth and final seminar "Dynamics of environmental management, climate and biological productivity of landscapes of Buryatia and Tuva in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries" was held

Congratulations to colleagues and partners on the upcoming New Year and Christmas!Let the new year bring us new success, projects and publications! We wish you inspiration and good luck!

Scientists at Privolzhsky Research Medical University (PRMU) and the Centre for Language and Brain Studies at the HSE Campus in Nizhny Novgorod have developed methods to diagnose autoaggressive and heteroaggressive tendencies in adolescents using eye-tracking technology. This will allow psychiatrists and psychologists to address this condition in young people before they may harm themselves or others. Anna Khomenko, Senior Research Fellow of the Centre for Language and Brain Studies at the HSE Campus in Nizhny Novgorod, presented the results of the project at the NeuroThursday seminar.

The Möbius Contest, established in 1997, aims to identify the best student research works in mathematics and provide financial support to their authors for continuing their scientific work in Russia. It offers students the opportunity to receive feedback on their initial research results from leading mathematicians.

In 2024, the employees of The International Laboratory for Digital Transformation in Public Administration carried out a complex project to assess the level of digital maturity of the in Moscow. During this project, they not only conducted a comprehensive assessment of the digital transformation process by surveying a large number of indicators, but also created a unique model for evaluating digital maturity among executive authorities in a large region like Moscow.

Dr Gerwin Schalk is a professor at Fudan University in Shanghai and a partner of the HSE Centre for Language and Brain within the framework of the strategic project 'Human Brain Resilience.' Dr Schalk is known as the creator of BCI2000, a non-commercial general-purpose brain-computer interface system. In this interview, he discusses modern neural interfaces, methods for post-stroke rehabilitation, a novel approach to neurosurgery, and shares his vision for the future of neurotechnology.

Daria Popova made a presentation on "Information packaging in constructions with an evidential function" at research seminar "From The Logical Point of View" on December 20.

As part of the XII International Scientific and Practical Conference "Schumpeter Readings," a session dedicated to the digitalization and intellectualization of firms and territories took place. The session was organized and moderated by Mariia Molodchik, Doctor of Economic Sciences, Senior Researcher at the International Laboratory of Intangible-driven Economy (IDLab), and Professor in the Department of Economics and Finance at HSE University – Perm.

As we look forward to 2025, FES professors took part in preparing a joyful video message for both students and colleagues. In this sincere address, they convey their warmest wishes and congratulations, while sharing their aspirations for a year filled with hopes for fruitful endeavors and remarkable accomplishments!

A team of researchers, with the participation of physicists from HSE University, replicated the 1969 experiment on superconductivity and its properties. The scientists induced superconductivity by deliberately deteriorating the interfaces between the layers of superconductors and ferromagnets in the system, resulting in better performance of spin valves compared to the classical version, where the interfaces between the layers are ideal. This approach could lead to the development of more efficient devices for data storage and computing. The study findings have been published in the Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology.
