This year, students from pre-professional classes and educational verticals created over 450 projects in biotechnology and bioengineering in collaboration with leading Moscow universities, including I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University, the N.I. Pirogov Russian National Research Institute, the Russian Biotechnology University (Rosbiotech), and the Patrice Lumumba Peoples' Friendship University of Russia. The students developed prototypes of bionic prostheses, orthoses, medical robots, and modern diagnostic tools.

"Moscow schoolchildren from medical and engineering classes create hundreds of biotechnology projects every year. They can present their work at open city scientific and practical conferences. For example, at the "Engineers of the Future" conference, students presented over 200 projects to the scientific community, covering medical instrumentation, bionics, and information technology in medicine. Another 240 bioengineering studies were presented at the "Start in Medicine" conference," the Moscow school's press service reported.

Department of Education and Science.

Roman Pokachev, a member of the medical class at School No. 1535, came up with a way to quickly provide medical personnel with information about a person's health in a critical situation. He developed a prototype bracelet with an embedded chip. It stores a link to an online questionnaire with information about the patient's blood type, allergies, and chronic diseases. To access this information, the doctor simply holds a smartphone near the bracelet.

Roman noted that he had always wanted to study natural sciences, particularly biology and anatomy, and later, medicine became his passion. His mother works in healthcare digitalization, which sparked the idea of developing a project that could also be connected to government digital platforms. The device currently connects to an app developed by Roman Pokachev, but in the future, it will also be linked to an electronic medical record.

Alina Shulgina, a student in the engineering class at School No. 1552, developed highly sensitive sensors for virus diagnostics. These devices are based on special silicon substrates with silver nanostructures that amplify the light signal from viral particles. This method allows for the detection of traces of the H1N1 flu virus that standard tests miss. This research could lead to the development of new rapid tests for rapid and accurate disease diagnosis.

Pavel Rogonov, an engineering student at School No. 1571, has created a prototype device for the safe administration of drugs used in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The robotic arm is controlled remotely via a computer program, and its design includes lead elements for radiation protection. This reduces the risk of radiation exposure for medical personnel to zero. In the future, he also plans to add a camera to automatically detect veins in the patient's arm.

"I decided to enroll in an engineering program because I've been interested in technical devices and computer programs since childhood. In my project, I combined these two interests and created a device controlled by an app. It's a robotic system for the remote intravenous administration of radiopharmaceuticals, eliminating the need for medical professionals to interact with hazardous substances. The device could be implemented in cancer centers and other medical clinics where patients undergo radionuclide therapy," said Pavel Rogonov.

Yegor Bulyndin, a student at School No. 1576, has developed a smart posture analyzer. The device attaches to a corset and uses sensors to detect slouching, then vibrates. Unlike existing devices, this gadget will be able to connect to a smartphone and display detailed posture statistics throughout the day.

Arina Konovalova, Ekaterina Chernyshova, and Daniel Khusnutdinov, students in the engineering class at School No. 138, created a prototype device to assist the blind and visually impaired. The device uses a laser sensor to scan the surrounding area and alerts the user to obstacles using vibration motors. The students designed the housing themselves using a 3D printer, assembled the electronic circuit, and wrote the software. Plans call for a more compact design.

Mikhail Neeshpapa, an engineering student at School No. 2044 named after Hero of the Soviet Union A.M. Serebryakov, has created a functional bionic hand prosthesis, which aims to be an affordable alternative to expensive commercial solutions. He designed and 3D-printed the prosthesis body with a servo drive system. It is controlled by a microcontroller that reads electrical signals from the muscles. A key feature of the development is a haptic feedback system based on strain gauges and vibration motors, allowing the user to feel the force of their grip. Mikhail has made all documentation, 3D models, and software code publicly available.

The young man said he's passionate about prosthetics and wants to become an engineer in the field, so he's studying not only computer science, programming, and modeling, but also biology. For his project, he chose a hand prosthesis because there's currently a significant shortage of good hand prosthetics on the market. Working on the prototype took many months: first, he had to refine the sensor for recording an electrocardiogram, then he struggled to secure the fingers, which required several reassemblies. Ultimately, Mikhail completed everything on time and won the "Engineers of the Future" conference. He's continuing to refine the prosthesis and has already made it so the thumb and index finger can read a phone's touchscreen. In the future, he plans to add a Peltier element to the device, which would detect surface temperatures. Then, the prosthesis could be used to test the temperature of water or an electric stove.

Over 4.2 kilometers of utility lines were modernized by specialists from the Moscow City Services Complex in the Presnensky District of the capital. The work covered water supply and wastewater disposal systems. Nearly three kilometers were built, and over 1.2 kilometers were reconstructed. The diameter of the installed pipes ranged from 100 to 400 millimeters.

Specialists updated networks in the historic development area and also installed utilities for new urban projects—for example, a multifunctional complex with underground parking located on Elektrichesky Lane.

The work involved using modern materials made from high-strength, domestically produced polyethylene. These pipes can withstand external pressure and the stresses of pressurized water transport. The smooth inner surface reduces hydraulic resistance and slows the formation of scale and salt deposits. Furthermore, these materials are corrosion-resistant.

To upgrade and install city utilities, Mosvodokanal specialists primarily used trenchless technologies, which minimizes environmental impact and reduces project implementation time.

The central venues of the Moscow Seasons will be transformed into the backdrop of a captivating winter fairytale. Tall fir trees, adorned with painted ornaments and miniatures of Moscow landmarks, will sparkle on Tverskaya and Manezhnaya Squares. Brightly colored souvenir pavilions will open their doors to guests, and hundreds of garlands of lights will sparkle. This year, the decor is dedicated to the capital: its architecture, history, traditions, and people.

On Manezhnaya Square, you can admire New Year's baubles painted based on designs by Moscow artists. And the facades of the pavilions on Tverskaya Square will be framed by illuminated structures reminiscent of the contours of the capital's ancient streets.

The project's events will take place in this enchanting atmosphere. Winter in MoscowThe whole family can have a warm time there from December 1st to February 28th.

See the capital's brightest spruce tree

The centerpiece of the festive display on Tverskaya Square will be one of the capital's most original Christmas trees. Craftsmen have created it from miniature replicas of iconic Moscow buildings. According to the creators, the eight-meter-tall tree symbolizes a city where past and present intertwine in festive ornamentation. Its branches juxtapose the Bolshoi Theater, the Moscow City Hall building, Stalinist skyscrapers, VDNKh pavilions, 19th-century mansions, and, of course, the Kremlin towers. The appearance of each building has been recreated down to the last detail, and its miniature windows glow with a soft, warm light.

Work on the festive decorations for the tree lasted six months. Craftsmen meticulously crafted every element to maintain the precision of the miniatures. The tree's frame was also meticulously designed. Hundreds of small fir trees and rowan branches will be installed at its base. They will be draped in red-gold velvet curtains and decorated with bullfinch figurines, as if they had flown straight out of a 19th-century Christmas card.

Touch the traditions

Just nearby, on Manezhnaya Square, another New Year's beauty will shine—a natural 22-meter spruce, second in height only to the Kremlin's. Its decoration is inspired by antique Russian toys. Hundreds of painted baubles were created based on exclusive sketches by Moscow artists. According to their vision, the tree is intended to be a touching illustration of childhood, where miracles were a natural part of life.

The baubles are decorated with scenes from Christmas stories, fairy tales, and festive festivities. They are accented with silk flags, long gold and silver icicles, cotton wool figures, and rosy-cheeked dolls in elegant costumes.

In total, over 10,000 ornaments and five kilometers of strings of lights will be used to decorate the tree. Professional tree climbers will help install them.

On November 27, the pre-New Year's film for the whole family, "Letter to Santa Claus," was released. The film, produced with the support of the capital's Department of Culture, will be the year's major release for the Gorky Film Studio, part of the Moscow film cluster. This year, the studio also celebrates its 110th anniversary.

The story centers on Pyotr Bezuglov, a serious lawyer who has forgotten what it means to dream. One day, his son Vanechka discovers his father's childhood letters to Father Frost and sends them through a magical mailbox. Afterward, Pyotr's world is turned upside down: the lawyer is overtaken by all his childhood fantasies—from rivers of soda and living toys to the appearance of Natalia Oreiro, the heroine of his youth. Pyotr embarks on an incredible journey to find that mailbox, cancel his wishes, stop the chaos, and save his family.

Leading adult roles

In the film "Letter to Santa Claus," audiences will see Ivan Okhlobystin, Anton Filipenko, Kristina Asmus, Ekaterina Temnova, Dima Bilan, Anatoly Tsoi, and other renowned Russian actors. One of the film's leading roles is played by world-class Argentine actress and singer Natalia Oreiro. According to director Kirill Kuzin (author of the projects "Sergiy vs. Evil Spirits," "Diagnosis: Lucky," and "Londongrad. Know Ours"), her agreement to participate in the film was a key moment in the film's development—a casting call for Russian actors followed.

The central male role, lawyer Pyotr Bezuglov, was played by Anton Filipenko. The actor is known for his roles in the films "Poplar Fluff," "I Am a Goddess," and "First on Olympus," as well as the TV series "Frozen Land," "Project Anna Nikolaevna," and "Sasha and Peter."

"Every director usually sees two or three versions of their characters. And it's amazing to see how everyone you imagined ultimately turned out exactly how they did, how the actors played exactly what you imagined. For example, we quickly figured out who our hero was and what he was like. Anton Filipenko, while not my first choice for the role, was always on the shortlist. I imagined he would perfectly play a klutz who puffs up like a turkey when people of lower social status are in front of him. And then deflates when he sees his own father," noted Kirill Kuzin.

Ivan Okhlobystin, known for his roles in "Kholop," the series "Interns," and dozens of other projects, played the stern Papa Peter. He was also the only one who didn't have to audition for the role. The director and producers made this decision simultaneously, without consulting. They say this actor, despite his energy, is a grandfather in a good sense—someone with experience and optimism, having seen and lived through it all.

Kirill Kuzmin noted that Ivan Okhlobystin improvised the most on set, while also helping Anton Filipenko and Kristina Asmus, who played the protagonist's ex-wife and mother of his children, develop their characters. The director explained that many actresses auditioned for the lead female role. However, the star of "Interns" and "District Center" was the perfect fit, as she, with the confident gaze of a former athlete, looked the complete opposite of her on-screen partner.

Pro kids and an Argentine star

Casting actors for the children's roles proved challenging. Despite the large number of talented young actors, experience and preparation are crucial for large-scale projects. According to the director, the set can be tense at times, so everyone involved must be prepared to work hard—to never tire or give up.

The film stars established young actors. Ekaterina Temnova, known for her role as Manyunya, plays Alisa, the protagonist's daughter, while her brother Vanechka is played by Konstantin Karimov, who previously starred in Yolki-12, The King and the Jester, and Blood Type. The role of young Pyotr Bezuglov goes to Miron Provorov, familiar to viewers from the projects The Chemistry Between Us and The Bremen Town Musicians.

Kirill Kuzin explained that the main challenge when working with child actors is their rapid growth. A child can undergo a significant transformation in just two or three months. The director cited Konstantin Karimov as an example, whose appearance changed during the film's production. Kuzin also noted the young actor's stamina. He said that even after five consecutive night shifts, when the adult crew members were already tired, Kostya remained energetic—running around, entertaining those around him, and inviting everyone to the set.

The director paid special attention to Natalia Oreiro's preparation for filming. The actress would play one of the lead roles and deliver most of her lines in Russian. Before Natalia's arrival in Russia, she and the director held regular video conferences.

"It was 40 degrees Celsius for her, and -20 degrees Celsius for us. She'd come home from filming tired and immediately dive into her work, trying to grasp Russian phrases and internalize them. But our conversations weren't about pronunciation; the specialists were able to explain that to her without me having to. We were more concerned with what and how we were performing in each episode. Because she had to embody not just herself on screen, but the self of a Russian boy's fantasy. And she had to waltz between that same 'wild angel' and the global superstar Natalia Oreiro, which she accomplished brilliantly," said Kirill Kuzin.

The Gorky Film Studio revealed the secrets of the stunts in the film "Letter to Santa Claus."

Gorky Film Studio is one of the largest in Russia and the oldest film studio in Moscow. It has produced over a thousand films, including "Seventeen Moments of Spring," "Officers," "Morozko," "…The Dawns Here Are Quiet," "Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka," "Guest from the Future," "Moscow—Cassiopeia," "Carnival," "You Never Dreamed of It…," "Pirates of the 20th Century," "Three Plus Two," and many others.

Today, the Gorky Film Studio is one of the main venues of the large Moscow film cluster, actively modernizing its studio complex. The production center produces feature films and documentaries, popular science series, and series for youth and children's/family audiences. The studio also operates sound stages. virtual production studio, costume and props complex, digital content creation studios and a youth creative space Gorky Cinema Campus, and also pass excursionsThe film studio hosts festivals, exhibitions, and professional events for filmmakers.
