The meeting was attended by Gennady Krasnikov, President of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Deputy Chairman of the Commission; Vladislav Davankov, Deputy Chairman of the State Duma; Maxim Kolesnikov, First Deputy Minister of Economic Development; Dmitry Afanasyev and Denis Sekirinsky, Deputy Ministers of Science and Higher Education; Olga Koludarova, Deputy Minister of Health; Sergei Glagolev, Deputy Minister of Finance; Pavel Kadochnikov, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade; Ekaterina Priezzheva, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade; Veronika Skvortsova, Head of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia; Anna Popova, Head of Rospotrebnadzor; Yuri Zubov, Head of Rospatent; Sergei Kabyshev, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Science and Higher Education; Mikhail Kotyukov, Governor of Krasnoyarsk Krai and Chairman of the State Council Commission on Technological Leadership; Viktor Sadovnichy, President of the Russian Union of Rectors and Rector of Moscow State University, and others.
During the meeting, issues related to the implementation of the most important innovative projects of national importance, industry strategies, and fundamental scientific research programs were discussed.
One of the main topics was the development of approaches to working on the most important innovative projects of national importance.
The Scientific and Technological Development Commission approved the draft strategy for the development of the rehabilitation industry of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2030 in terms of personnel and scientific support for its implementation, subject to taking into account comments.
The draft strategy under consideration is aimed at ensuring a sustainable level of development of the rehabilitation industry in our country.
"The project presents a comprehensive picture of the development of the entire industry: from fundamental science and personnel training to production and logistics. It was prepared taking into account fundamental documents for the sector, including decrees of President Vladimir Putin and orders of the Russian Government. It is expected that the implementation of the strategy will, among other things, promote Russia's national interests in rehabilitation technologies, science, personnel development, and production," stated Dmitry Chernyshenko.
Ekaterina Priezzheva added that the project was sent to more than 230 interested organizations and presented to an expert community and the heads of large enterprises.
Gennady Krasnikov reported that the Scientific and Technical Council of the Scientific and Technical Revolution Commission carefully reviewed the draft strategy: "It provides for truly priority research, including the development of neural interfaces, the use of artificial intelligence, the creation of biocompatible materials, and other important studies. Furthermore, it provides for the integration of medical organizations with leading scientific organizations, and a detailed review of human resources policies is underway. We believe that the convergence of nanotechnology, robotics, and neurosciences envisioned in the strategy will enable the creation of cutting-edge, competitive products. Following its review, the Scientific and Technical Council recommends supporting this project."
Veronika Skvortsova presented the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia's cutting-edge practices in high-tech comprehensive rehabilitation: "I would like to thank you for your support of the world-class scientific center—the Center for Cybernetic Medicine and Neuroprosthetics, established within the Federal Center for Brain and Neurotechnology of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia. Thanks to the agency's close collaboration with Motorika, fundamentally new technologies have been developed and are already being implemented: biocompatible implants, innovative methods for combating phantom pain, prosthetic sensing systems and bionic prostheses, and neuromicroprocessor interfaces. These unique developments are currently being tested on their first patients."
In conclusion, the Scientific and Technological Revolution Commission reviewed the 2024 report on the implementation of the Fundamental Scientific Research Program in the Russian Federation for the long-term period.
Last year, the Academy of Sciences worked to improve the model for coordinating fundamental and exploratory scientific research, as well as the evaluation of scientific results. RAS Vice President Stepan Kalmykov discussed this work in detail.
Denis Sekirinsky highlighted key aspects of the program implementation report and announced changes to the indicator system: "I would like to separately inform you that today we made changes to the fundamental research program: the indicators have been revised and are now fully aligned with the indicators for the implementation of the Strategy for Scientific and Technological Development of Russia, which were previously approved at a meeting of the commission and the Council for Science and Education."
