NSU hosted an open lecture by Oleg Grin, PhD in Law, Director of the Scientific and Educational Center for Legal Support of Bioeconomics and Genetic Technologies at the Kutafin Moscow State Law University (MSLU), and Head of the Department of Medical Law. The lecture focused on issues of biolaw.

The Kutafin Moscow State Law Institute is a leading educational institution in Russia. Recently, the university has been developing new areas of law (beyond the civil-criminal paradigm), implementing models of advanced jurisprudence, and working in areas where legal norms have not yet been established (for example, cyberlaw, nanolaw, and environmental law).

This is not the first time Oleg Grin has participated in NSU events. He previously served as an expert at the roundtable discussion "The Role of NSU as a World-Class Campus in the Implementation of National Projects in Biotechnology, Medicine, and Pharmaceutics," which was held as part of the Technoprom-2025 international technological development forum.

"New areas of legal support are crucial for the Institute, as the rapid translation of our scientists' and developers' achievements into practical applications is crucial for the implementation of projects under the Priority 2030 and Creation of a Network of Modern Campuses programs," commented Professor Yulia Samoylova, Director of the Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies (IMMT) at NSU.

A lecture for students and young scientists on biolaw issues is an important step in furthering interactions between doctors, researchers, and lawyers and developing the medicine of the future.

"We've planned a series of events and educational projects as part of the professional development program," explained Irina Sergeeva, head of the Center for Postgraduate Medical Education at the NSU Institute of Medical and Technical Medicine.

From September 1st to 25th, Novosibirsk State University and the House of Scientists in Akademgorodok hosted the ninth annual "Metamorphoses of Culture" event, organized by the Department of History, Culture, and Arts. Humanitarian Institute (GI) NSU.

Each year, the organizers come up with a new theme for the event, one that will be relatable to many and encompass a broad range of history. This year, "Metamorphoses of Culture" focused on the era of Alexander Pushkin.

"At our event, we're discussing the Pushkin era, covering literature, education, criticism, and much more. Pushkin is a timeless classic! And we strive to adapt to modern realities and present information in a vibrant and engaging way. For example, we had a lecture by Maria Sergeevna Berendeyeva, where we discussed Pushkin's portrayal in cinema. A great many films have been based on his works, and how many are dedicated to him! We held a closing lecture-concert, "Music against the backdrop of the era: A.S. Pushkin and M.I. Glinka." Maria Aleksandrovna Timofeeva delivered the lecture and simultaneously played the piano, performing works by Glinka, a contemporary of Pushkin," commented Victoria Vybornova, PhD in History and assistant professor in the Department of History, Culture, and Arts at the Novosibirsk State University Institute of History.

The lecturers included leading scholars and distinguished teachers from scientific and educational institutions in Novosibirsk and Moscow. Anna and Marina Sidorov were invited speakers from the State Archives of the Russian Federation. They shared their insights into the process of publishing sources and the challenges they face when working with them. For example, the lecture "Benckendorff: A Portrait Against the Background of an Era" described how the military leader's diary and letters, written in various languages, were translated. The key to translation is not only to convey the beauty and style of the original but also to preserve the author's intended meaning.

"Today I gave a lecture on the image of Alexander Sergeevich in cinema. My professional interests are as a linguist, but I also study polycode texts, that is, texts that combine different sign systems. Wine is a prime example of such a polycode text, so I have some expertise in certain aspects of cinema. I'm very pleased to see so many people in the audience today. This means that Pushkin's work still holds interest; it attracts and excites people, which is wonderful," shared Maria Berendeyeva, PhD in Philology, Associate Professor in the Department of History of Culture and Arts, and Senior Researcher at the Heritage Research and Educational Center at the Novosibirsk State University Institute of Geography.

Schoolchildren from nearby schools, students, young researchers, teachers and university professors were able to attend the lectures.

"The main audience is, of course, philologists and historians, but it's also nice to see mathematicians, physicists, and economists. We have interested students from various departments, because Alexander Sergeevich is a classic. I recently conducted a seminar at the Institute of Intelligent Robotics at NSU, and one boy recited an excerpt from 'The Song of the Prophetic Oleg' to me. Despite everyone's different specialties, a love of poetry lives within us all," added Victoria Vybornova.

The Association of International Students is a community whose main goal is to support international students in Novosibirsk, strengthen friendships, host events celebrating cultural diversity, provide academic support to students at Novosibirsk universities, and much more.

At the beginning of the meeting, Roman Karbushev, a specialist in the NSU Education Export Department, outlined the key objectives:

This year, we have a lot of work ahead of us, related to the development and promotion of our branch's activities. Our team is full of enthusiastic individuals with plenty of ideas for how to further develop our activities, and I hope there will be even more of them today. The main task today is to present a report on the past year, share our plans for the future, and, of course, welcome new members to our team.

Next, Evgeny Sagaydak, Head of the Education Export Department at NSU, delivered a welcoming speech:

According to last year's data, 9,500 international students from 60 countries were studying in the Novosibirsk Region—a significant number. The region has ambitious goals: to increase the number of students by 50% by 2030. The city is open to welcoming international students, and its universities are also ready to welcome students from abroad. A specially developed regional program for the development of education exports aims to not only increase the number of international students but also create a comfortable environment for them to live in the city, so that during their studies, your university becomes an alma mater you will remember fondly.

Olga Naumova, director of the Yunost art residency, also addressed the participants: "I am pleased to welcome you today, including on behalf of Vasily Viktorovich Noskov, head of the Novosibirsk Region Department of Youth Policy. I hope that your activism and interest in developing the International Students Association will benefit you, the region, and those young people in your home country to whom you will share your experiences in the Novosibirsk Region."

Avishka Alagiyavanna, president of the Novosibirsk branch, presented a report on the AIS's work, sharing with activists what the association has accomplished over the past year.

AIS, together with the leaders of the International Friendship Club, held a joint meeting with Irina Yuryevna Sukhorukova, Head of the Permit and Visa Department of the Main Directorate for Migration Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Novosibirsk Region, where they discussed migration legislation, medical examinations for international students, and other topics. The association plans to hold another meeting with the Ministry of Internal Affairs after the migration legislation has been amended.

A mini-football tournament was held at NSTU, hosting six teams from seven universities. AIS also attended the International Youth Forum "Russia Made Us Friends 2025," which aims to bring together international student leaders from Russia, train them to work at the AIS RF branch, and introduce them to the diversity of Russian culture.

From August 27 to 29, 2025, the Russian Association of Foreign Students Media School was held in the Moscow region. This large-scale event brought together 85 students from 31 countries, representing universities across Russia. Among them were seven students from Novosibirsk, including representatives of Novosibirsk State University.

For three days, participants immersed themselves in the world of media and digital technologies. The Media School program included a media quiz, where students learned to create engaging content; design workshops and Figma sessions; development of new sections for regional AIS branches; and training sessions on teamwork, time management, and an active social media presence.

"When I learned about this forum, I immediately knew I had to participate. The topics covered at the media school align well with my desire to provide as much information as possible to international students coming to Russia to ease their adaptation. Initially, they face a number of challenges related to learning new languages, a different education system, and so on," noted Josué Pudiugo, a second-year doctoral student at the Faculty of Natural Sciences at NSU and a participant in the Media School.

According to participants, the Media School became not only an educational platform but also a place for sharing experiences, pursuing creative pursuits, and expanding their network. Here, students not only mastered current media trends but also met inspiring people, made new friends, and strengthened their international connections.

"Initially, I was offered to attend the 'Heart of AIS' forum, and to be honest, it wasn't a priority for me. But then, when I arrived and saw the atmosphere, my eyes lit up, and I came back so energized that I want to make an even greater contribution to the development of our branch this year. This was my first trip with the guys. I had a great time the entire two days, and I'm glad I met AIS participants from all over Russia and worked with them on content creation," added Laylo Abdurakhmanova, a student at SibUPK.

The Association's immediate plans include holding the traditional Indian festival of Diwali at the Novosibirsk House of Scientists and preparing an event to coincide with National Unity Day.
