Denis Manturov visited the Scientific and Production Association of Automatics, part of the state corporation Roscosmos. With the General Director of NPOA Mikhail Izyumov

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov visited the Scientific and Production Association of Automatics (part of the Roscosmos State Corporation), one of the largest Russian enterprises in the field of development and production of control systems and electronic equipment for rocket and space technology. The First Deputy Prime Minister assessed the readiness of the control system for the Soyuz-5 launch vehicle.

Currently, NPO Avtomatiki is completing the manufacture of the control system for the Soyuz-5 launch vehicle. Denis Manturov visited the complex stand where the control system is undergoing development tests.

NPOA CEO Mikhail Izyumov said that the new main unit of the system is four times more compact and lighter than the unit for the Soyuz-2 launch vehicle. The use of a high-speed, productive onboard computer will optimize the communication between the rocket and ground launch equipment. This will simplify the process of preparing the product. The capabilities of the onboard computer will ensure the deployment of all test modes directly on board, and not on ground equipment. Mikhail Izyumov emphasized that the control system will be handed over for flight tests in accordance with the work schedule.

Also, for Soyuz-5, an emergency engine protection system for the first and second stages has been developed and is being manufactured, which will allow cyclically with a duration of several milliseconds to assess the state of the engine based on its operating parameters. The control will help to identify a possible emergency situation, prevent its further development and promptly issue a command to shut down the engine. In the event of an abnormal situation on the first stage engine, it will save the rocket and the launch complex, and during the flight of the second stage, if it is possible to continue the flight on one of the engine blocks, it will turn off two chambers of the emergency block, and two chambers of the second block will work. Such a scheme will be used for the first time on domestic rockets.

Denis Manturov was also presented with the capabilities of NPO Avtomatiki in the production of devices for unmanned agricultural machinery, equipment for the oil and gas production industry, as well as sensors and detectors.

Nine regions of the country have summed up the results of the regional stages of the federal program "Mom-entrepreneur", aimed at supporting women with minor children or on maternity leave. Participants received grants in the amount of 150 thousand rubles to implement their projects.

"For 13 years now, the "Mom-entrepreneur" program has been giving women the opportunity to successfully start a business. This year, the program is only gaining momentum: regional stages will be held in 59 more regions, with about 3.5 thousand women taking part. It is also planned to implement individual thematic tracks," noted Deputy Minister of Economic Development of Russia Tatyana Ilyushnikova.

The program continues to inspire not only the participants, but also those who have already achieved success. Thus, within the framework of the forum of the Agency for Strategic Initiatives "Strong Ideas for a New Time", the partner and ambassador of the "Mom-entrepreneur" program, the finalist of the "Index of Business" rating, the co-founder of the cosmetics company ESTILAB Irina Amosova spoke about her business during a meeting with the President of Russia Vladimir Putin. Irina's company is a recipient of various support measures, from a place in a coworking space to R&D subsidies. This example shows how support at the start helps women scale up projects and bring them to the federal level. At this year's program, Irina will tell the participants how to grow their business within the legal framework, build long-term strategies, build environmentally friendly relationships with business partners and what to get inspired by.

At the regional stages, participants undergo an intensive course from certified trainers of the My Business Centers. During the week of training, they master key aspects of entrepreneurship, including business planning, marketing strategies, and ways to attract clients. The program also includes mentoring sessions with successful businessmen and individual consultations. In the final, mother-entrepreneurs defend their projects in front of experts, and the best of them receive grant support.

In 2025, the program underwent changes — now, when selecting, preference is given to projects aimed at developing key sectors of the economy. An example of such a business direction was the project of the winner from the Leningrad Region, Lyubov Pershina — a 3D printing studio. Her company produces components for industry and the automotive industry, and also creates souvenirs, toys and interior items.

"Participation in the program gave me an exchange of experience with interesting people. I have already opened a 3D printing and 3D modeling studio. Our advantage is high quality and precision. We make exclusive solutions!" – said Lyubov Pershina.

Inga Ankhimova became the winner of the regional stage in the Republic of Karelia. She won with the project "Ekovetvi" – a workshop for creating furniture and decor from living twigs. After receiving a subsidy and training at the Center "My Business", the woman was able to turn her hobby into a successful business. The participant dedicated her victory to her son, who will soon go to serve in the army.

"This business is love at first sight. Last year the program seemed scary, but now I am proud of my work and want to develop further," shared Inga Ankhimova.

Participants in the regional stages of the "Mama-Entrepreneur" program present projects in various business areas. For example, in the Rostov Region, Yulia Naumenko is developing the production of forged designer furniture "Aze le Rido", Alena Patrikeyeva is launching the toy factory "Dzhunto", Irina Chekulaeva – the production of raw-pressed oils "Davil". Professional dog handler Maryana Chernichkina presented an interesting project – a grooming studio and puppy school "Chernika".

The average age of female entrepreneurs is 33–40 years old, most of them are raising two children. These examples clearly demonstrate how the program helps mothers implement business ideas, combining entrepreneurship with caring for their families. The federal program "Mom-entrepreneur" is included in the list of tools of the national project "Efficient and Competitive Economy".

Psychologist from St. Petersburg State University in the podcast "Heinrich Terahertz": "Digital addiction – a new reality or a threat to thinking?" | St. Petersburg State University

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Saint Petersburg State University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Smartphones and social media create the illusion of productivity, but in reality they drain the psyche. Constant notifications, endless scrolling, and the fear of missing out lead to chronic anxiety and a decrease in intellectual abilities. Children, whose cognitive functions are formed in conditions of hyperconnectivity, are especially vulnerable – their thinking may never reach full maturity.

Olga Shcherbakova explained why banning gadgets in schools (as in China, Australia and the EU) improves academic performance and socialization. Modern children, who are called "digital natives", lose their deep thinking skills because their brains get used to working in conjunction with external devices. Even educational content is not always useful – it is important to be able to distinguish educational materials from "digital fast food". A separate problem is "cognitive reserve": if thinking is not trained in youth, this can lead to early cognitive impairments in the future.

The world is not divided into those who are “dependent” and those who “control.” Most people simply do not realize how much their psyche has already merged with gadgets.

Leading researcher of the Faculty of Psychology of St. Petersburg State University Olga Shcherbakova

There is a way out: consciously limiting screen time, returning to analog forms of learning, and creating an environment where the brain is forced to work independently. But this requires efforts not only at the family level, but also at the level of the entire education system.

She explained how to regain your attention and help children avoid digital degradation, and whether it is worth waiting for government regulation or starting with yourself. And why even adults who consider themselves "confident users" are actually susceptible to digital addiction.

Doctors at the N. I. Pirogov Clinic of High Medical Technologies at St. Petersburg State University have made a breakthrough in orthopedics. For the first time in St. Petersburg, robotic surgery has appeared using the MAKO SmartRobotics system — an advanced platform for knee and hip joint replacement. Now patients can have total and partial endoprosthetics with pinpoint precision, unachievable by traditional methods.

© Clinic of High Medical Technologies named after N. I. Pirogov, St. Petersburg State University

N. I. Pirogov Clinic of High Medical Technologies is part of the St. Petersburg University and regularly occupies a leading position among the best medical institutions both in Russia and abroad. Over the past year, specialists at the university clinic have performed more than 35,000 successful operations.

New Bachelor's Degree Program "Physical Rehabilitation" at St. Petersburg State University will prepare rehabilitation specialists for the high-tech branch of medicine.

The day before the operation, the surgeon plans the installation of the implant down to the smallest detail, taking into account the individual characteristics of the patient's anatomy, based on 3D modeling data. Preoperative planning based on CT data is carried out using the MAKO digital ecosystem, which includes intraoperative navigation that visualizes the anatomy in real time, as well as a robotic arm.

"This level of preoperative preparation and intraoperative control radically changes the standards of accuracy and predictability of results. During the intervention, the robot, like the hand of an experienced sculptor, limits the area of influence of the instruments and ensures maximum precision of resections with zero possibility of error," the traumatologist-orthopedist emphasized. Clinics named after N. I. Pirogov of St. Petersburg State University Vadim Klimenko, who performed the first operation.

MAKO SmartRobotics is the only robotic system in Russia officially registered for total hip replacement, as well as total and partial knee replacement.

Unlike surgical navigation systems, which are visualization aids, MAKO has the ability to physically control the movement of instruments. Clinical studies demonstrate significant benefits of robotic surgery: a reduction in revision rates of up to 53%, improved soft tissue balance, shorter hospital stays, reduced need for analgesics, and faster rehabilitation.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The Institute of Civil Engineering at SPbPU has created an environmentally sustainable technology based on microalgae that allows the utilization of carbon dioxide from industrial emissions and the production of biohydrogen, a promising renewable fuel. The results of the study were published in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, and the technology is described in the material onon the RIA Novosti website.

The development was carried out under the supervision of Natalia Politaeva, professor at the Higher School of Hydraulic and Power Engineering. The technology involves the use of bioponds, where microalgae absorb carbon dioxide, forming biomass, which is then subjected to dark fermentation to obtain biohydrogen.

The fuel produced in this way can be used in cars, hydrogen fuel cells or to generate electricity and heat. Implementation of the technology in coal power plants will help reduce the harm from carbon dioxide emissions and increase the energy efficiency of enterprises.

The advantage of the technology is that it combines three functions: carbon dioxide capture, biomass processing and hydrogen production. This makes the system unique in terms of its closed nature and sustainability. Scientists plan to improve the technology after pilot implementation at an industrial facility.
