Service capabilities Mospitometz The mos.ru portal has been expanded. Now, users can not only choose a pet from a city shelter but also receive care recommendations, learn more about programs supporting homeless animals, and join these projects. The service features information about the services offered by city veterinary clinics and helpful articles on animal hygiene, microchipping, and much more. The service also helps users schedule appointments with veterinarians and other pet care professionals. A special section, "Helping Homeless Animals," explains how to volunteer at city shelters.

"The Mospitometz service offers future pet owners a range of useful solutions. It helps them find a pet from a shelter, learn about the services offered by city veterinary clinics, book appointments or grooming appointments, and receive detailed care instructions. A special quiz helps users determine which animals they are compatible with, allowing them to make an informed decision and lay the foundation for a long and happy life together. For those who aren't yet ready to adopt a pet but want to help, the service has created a section on supporting homeless animals, where they can learn about volunteering or making a donation," the Moscow city's press service reported.

Department of Information Technology.

The Mospitometz super service contains dozens of useful instructions, including information on preparing for the appearance of a pet in a home. Specialists have developed a step-by-step plan that details how to set up a home, what documents are needed, and how to help the animal adjust. The instructions also explain the specifics of caring for shelter pets and the veterinary procedures you should schedule first.

There are 24 state-run veterinary clinics in Moscow, including those specializing in exotic animal care. In a separate section You can learn more about their services and which specialist to contact if needed, how to make an appointment with a doctor and receive veterinary care at home, as well as view a map of clinics and find the nearest facility.

Another chapter Provides detailed information on pet hygiene procedures and grooming appointments if owners want to entrust their pet to professionals. And in the section Helping homeless animals Information on how to become a volunteer at city shelters, marked on the interactive map, is available. You can also support the shelters by making a donation through Charity service on mos.ru, which features non-profit organizations helping cats and dogs. You can quickly access its page directly from this section.

The Mospitometz service launched in October of this year. One of its key features is to help prospective owners choose a cat or dog by reviewing profiles of existing pets and scheduling a visit to the shelter.

"Currently, the Mospitometz catalog contains over a thousand profiles of dogs and cats living in 13 city shelters. All animals are socialized, microchipped, and vaccinated, so future owners won't have to waste time with a veterinarian. Pets are handed over with documents detailing all vaccinations, microchip, gender, weight, color, and other characteristics," noted the press service of the Moscow City Services Complex.

When choosing a pet, users can use filters to select the animal's type (cat or dog) and specify its gender, age, size, coat length, and color. Additionally, prospective owners can take a special quiz to help them find the most suitable four-legged friend. The service asks users to answer six questions—it takes no more than two minutes.

Each pet's page features photos, a description of their appearance and personality, and shelter contact information. To meet the animal you like, click the "Book Now" button and provide your information. Only authorized mos.ru users with a standard or full account can do this. After receiving your request, a shelter staff member will contact you to confirm the date and time of the visit. The service will also automatically suggest profiles of other pets similar to your chosen one.

If after meeting at the shelter a person decides to take the little tail they like home, they will be asked to sign agreement, which outlines the owner's rights and responsibilities—three days are allotted for this. This will allow the future owner to weigh their decision and prepare for the pet's arrival.

The creation, development and operation of e-government infrastructure, including the provision of mass socially significant services, as well as other services in electronic form, corresponds to the objectives of the national project Data Economy and the Moscow regional project "Digital Public Administration."

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The "Engineering League of St. Petersburg," an intensive educational program for schoolchildren, concluded at the Polytechnic University. Over 100 young engineers worked on their projects, which they presented at the final conference. The program was organized with the support of the St. Petersburg Employment Center.

Over the course of a month, participants immersed themselves in the world of modern technical creativity, going from idea to working prototype. Each project was supervised by experienced mentors from among Polytechnic University faculty and students.

Andrey Shirokikh, an engineer at the I. I. Kirillov Turbine Engineering Laboratory, and Nikita Izbyakov, an engineer at the Higher School of Power Engineering, taught the "3D Modeling of Aircraft" course. Participants mastered 3D modeling in KOMPAS-3D, working their way from designing the main components of an aircraft (chassis, fuselage, wings) to final model assembly, with a particular focus on additive manufacturing and 3D printing.

The "Virtual Designer" course focused on the fundamentals of shipbuilding. Together with Alexander Tupikov, an assistant at the Higher School of Mechanical Engineering, the students learned the basics, mastered 3D modeling, and learned how to calculate catamaran propeller parameters. This became the final project for the KOMPAS-3D modeling and propeller calculation course.

The "Circuitry" program focused on the fundamentals of designing devices using CAD and 3D printing, as well as practical application of Arduino programming. Under the guidance of Alexander Cheledkov, a student at the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Materials, and Transport, the students created a smart lighting system and a home delivery robot for transporting small loads.

Participants in the "Warehouse Industrial Robotics" program, led by Ivan Baranov, a student at the Institute of Computer Science, completed a comprehensive study of modern warehouse technologies. The program included CAD design and process automation programming, which enabled the development of a robotic loader for the smart warehouse of the future, capable of optimizing logistics operations.

The "Prototyping and Circuit Design Fundamentals" course was taught by Maxim Ruzakov, a research assistant in the Industrial Stream Data Processing Systems laboratory. The program included a sequential dive into the full device creation cycle: 3D modeling in Kompas-3D, circuit design, working with microcontrollers, and Arduino programming. The final project was a car with a collision avoidance system.

The 3D Printing and Prototyping course was taught by student Artem Lekhnovich. Participants learned 3D modeling and slicer tools, applying their knowledge to project work. The end result was a machine for producing filament from recycled plastic, addressing the challenge of sustainable development.

At the final conference, the best projects were presented, selected from each of the six areas. Participants presented functioning prototypes, demonstrating not only technical skills but also their ability to work in a team, solve complex engineering problems, and effectively present their developments to experts.

"The Engineering League is much more than just an intensive educational program. It's a launching pad for future engineers," commented Artem Egupov, Director of the Applicant Services Center. "Here, students gained invaluable project-based experience, worked with modern equipment, and saw their theoretical knowledge materialize into real devices. We don't just teach them engineering; we help them believe in themselves and understand that they are the future leaders who will shape the technological development of our country."

The project's main idea is to give young people the opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of technology and engineering solutions right during class. Classes held at the Polytechnic University created the necessary atmosphere and provided access to modern equipment. This helps clearly demonstrate that the engineering field is developing dynamically and is full of interesting challenges. The project's main goal is to demonstrate to young people the appeal of technical specialties and inspire them to choose the professions of the future. "That's why I consider our initiative important and am pleased with its successful implementation," noted Anna Shakhova, Head of the Career Development and Professional Development Department at the St. Petersburg Employment Center.

All participants received certificates, and the authors of the best projects were awarded diplomas and prizes. The "Engineering League of St. Petersburg" project has proven its effectiveness in early career guidance and developing a talent pool for high-tech industries.

An NSU graduate student demonstrated for the first time the influence of various compounds with a similar structure on the formation of new forms of carbamazepine.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Novosibirsk State University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The template effect of a small amount of additives of compounds with a similar structure (various saturated carboxylic acids and alkanes) on the process of self-assembly and crystallization of the channel trigonal structure of carbamazepine using a mechanochemical approach, crystallization in solution and melt was demonstrated by a first-year master's student in the Chemistry program and the training profile "Methodological support for physicochemical studies of condensed phases" Faculty of Natural Sciences of Novosibirsk State University (NSU Natural Sciences Department) Daria Zheltikova, under the supervision of Evgeny Losev, a research fellow at the Boreskov Institute of Catalysis SB RAS, senior lecturer in the Department of Solid State Chemistry at the NSU Natural Sciences Department, and candidate of chemical sciences. The key focus of her research was studying the phenomenon of polymorphism and the conditions for the formation of new solid forms of medicinal compounds, particularly carbamazepine, as well as methods for their controlled production. The effect of the compounds examined in the study on carbamazepine had never been previously studied.

Polymorphism is the ability of the same substance to exist in different crystal structures (polymorphic modifications). These structures differ in the arrangement of atoms (or molecules) and may have different physicochemical properties (e.g., solubility, melting points).

"The pharmaceutical industry is focused on studying the conditions for the formation of new crystalline forms of medicinal compounds, investigating their structures and physicochemical properties, and their interconversions. These processes address such important issues as the reproducibility of obtaining the desired substances, establishing the stability of drugs prone to polymorphism, and improving fundamentally important pharmaceutical characteristics: dissolution rate, bioavailability, storage stability, hygroscopicity, and other properties. To screen new crystalline forms, we primarily used a mechanochemical approach. This is a common method for screening the conditions for obtaining new solid forms of molecular compounds. Thanks to the wide range of parameters available for mechanochemical experiments, researchers can comprehensively study a selected system and draw conclusions about the putative mechanism of the processes occurring during the experiment. In recent years, mechanochemical reactions and transformations initiated by mechanical stress have been actively studied using various in situ methods using synchrotron radiation," explained Daria Zheltikova.

The young researcher's object of study was carbamazepine, a drug with antiepileptic and anticonvulsant properties, widely used in the treatment of nervous system disorders. According to the biopharmaceutical classification system, carbamazepine belongs to class II drugs, meaning it has low solubility in aqueous solutions and high intestinal permeability. Currently, five polymorphic modifications of this drug are known, which is quite unique and places carbamazepine in the class of highly polymorphic molecular compounds. Each polymorphic modification has a different crystal structure and molecular packing. In 1987, polymorphic modification II of carbamazepine, which has a trigonal space symmetry group, was first isolated and characterized. A distinctive feature of the crystalline structure of this form is the presence of extended tubular voids (channels) formed by the CH groups of the benzene fragments of the carbamazepine molecules. This substance is a good model object for studying the influence of experimental parameters on the selective production of specific polymorphic modifications and crystalline forms. The knowledge and patterns gained can be further transferred to other systems prone to polymorphism.

— The trigonal structure of carbamazepine, since its elucidation in 1987 and for several decades, was considered a polymorph. However, using a combination of physicochemical methods, it was recently established that the trigonal structure, which should have consisted solely of carbamazepine molecules, is a host-guest inclusion compound, where the carbamazepine molecules form a channel-type framework with solvent molecules embedded within the voids. The inclusion molecules will vary depending on the experimental conditions. It is the inclusion molecules that stabilize the trigonal crystal structure and enable its formation. Currently known inclusion compounds of carbamazepine are characterized by the presence of a small number of guest molecules in a highly disordered state, making their study quite labor-intensive. Various inclusion bodies of the trigonal form of carbamazepine can be classified as clathrates—compounds in which molecules of one substance (the "guest") are trapped within the crystal lattice of another substance (the "host"). The host molecules form a framework, while the guest molecules are located within it and held in place by weak intermolecular interactions, explained Daria Zheltikova.

Research into carbamazepine polymorphism and its formation of various crystalline forms began quite some time ago and was conducted as part of several projects implemented over the years with support from the Russian Foundation for Basic Research, the Russian Science Foundation, and the Priority-2030 program. The results were published in peer-reviewed international journals. This study continues work conducted earlier in the previous stages of the NSU Physics Faculty's youth competition "X-ray, Synchrotron, and Neutron Methods of Interdisciplinary Research," with support from the Priority-2030 program.

The aim of this study is to optimize the conditions for obtaining single crystals of carbamazepine clathrates with various guest molecules using various crystallization techniques and their analysis using a set of physicochemical methods.

Such exploratory work, despite its significant fundamental component, often leads to the establishment of the existence of new, previously unknown polymorphic modifications of medicinal compounds, which has direct practical significance, and also establishes correlations between the parameters and results of crystallization experiments, which can be useful in the study of systems similar in structure and properties.

One of the new scientific results obtained in this study is the demonstration of the template effect of small amounts of structurally similar compounds on the self-assembly and crystallization of the channel trigonal structure of carbamazepine using various methods—a mechanochemical approach, solution crystallization, and melt crystallization. Saturated carboxylic acids and alkanes—compounds containing a long, unbranched carbon chain—were used as structurally similar compounds. The template effect observed in the preparation of carbamazepine clathrates is based on the ability of the template (in this case, various carboxylic acids and alkanes) to organize the reactant (carbamazepine) molecules around itself, enabling the formation of a seed cluster, which serves as a precursor for the targeted formation of the final crystalline structure. All newly obtained compounds are clathrates of the trigonal form of carbamazepine, that is, the structure of carbamazepine contains inclusion molecules of the corresponding acids and alkanes.

— Currently, we are focused on optimizing methods for obtaining single crystals of various carbamazepine clathrates for further study and investigation of their stability at elevated temperatures. We obtained nine clathrates with saturated carboxylic acids and alkanes under various conditions. Our study examined six carboxylic acids and three alkanes. We have focused on only a few compounds from each group, as obtaining single-crystal samples for each individual compound is quite labor-intensive due to differences in formation conditions and certain experimental details. The compounds obtained have an acicular morphology—in simpler terms, they are thin, needle-like crystals. In some cases, the needle size is so small that it precludes single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis using laboratory diffractometers. For this reason, not all of them have had their crystal structures determined yet. We characterized compounds whose crystal structures had not been obtained using Raman and NMR spectroscopy, said Daria Zheltikova.

Source: Moscow Government – Moscow Government –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

This year, several major improvement projects were implemented in Moscow's Northern Administrative District. The following article describes how parks and other public spaces have been transformed: blog Sergei Sobyanin said.

Avtomobilist Park: for children and sports enthusiasts

For example, Avtomobilist Park in the Savelovsky District has been renovated. It's a popular place for walks and recreation for local residents, especially families with children. The playground has been renovated, creating a play area for children of all ages.

"Young explorers have access to science modules, rope climbers, and a mini-climbing wall with varying levels of difficulty. They can not only practice dexterity but also develop their thinking and fine motor skills. A Stylophone will help develop their love of music, and children take their first steps in learning new things with the "Listen to the City" and "Floating Lighthouse" modules," the Moscow Mayor wrote.

Swings, trampolines, and balance beams were installed here, and a safe surface was laid for comfortable play.

For active recreation enthusiasts, the sports area has been upgraded, with workout equipment featuring horizontal bars and rings. Athletes can also practice parkour here.

Walking with your pets has become more convenient and varied: the renovated dog park now features modern training equipment.

For a quieter place to relax, the park benches were replaced and an area with a pergola swing was created. Paths were also repaired and modern streetlights were installed. Additional landscaping was added throughout the area, with trees and perennials planted.

Golovanovsky Park: an eco-style play area

Golovanovsky Park has been improved in the Aeroport district. A modern, eco-style play area has been created for children. They can frolic on swings, balance beams, and carousels, while a climbing frame and slides help develop their motor skills and dexterity.

Ping pong enthusiasts are enjoying their time on the court with new table tennis tables.

The park's pedestrian paths have been renovated and its lighting systems upgraded, making walks pleasant at any time of day. You can now relax on new benches and swings.

People's Park: workout, exercise equipment, and a play area for children of all ages

The People's Park in Khovrino has also been transformed. A large play area for children of all ages has been created here. A playground with slides, walkways, and climbing frames has been installed. Swing-nests, balance beams, trampolines, and developmental panels have been installed. Younger children will enjoy the sandbox and a play area shaped like a steam locomotive. Comfortable benches are also available nearby.

For active recreation enthusiasts, a workout zone and outdoor exercise equipment for all muscle groups have been installed. Table tennis tables and a multi-purpose court for soccer and basketball have been added. Parkour and rock climbing skills can also be practiced here. Morning jogs have become more comfortable thanks to a new treadmill with a rubberized surface.

The park's walking paths have been updated and recreation areas with benches and swings have been created. Modern lighting poles have also been installed and additional landscaping has been added.

Transformation of Botkinsky Boulevard and the square on Leningradsky Prospekt

Two public areas have been improved in the Begovoy district. Now you can stroll comfortably along Botkinsky Boulevard. Pedestrian paths have been renovated and additional trails have been created. Modern gazebos and new benches are available for quiet relaxation. A new area with park swings and lounge chairs has also been created.

They haven't forgotten about our four-legged friends either—they've set up a special area with training equipment for their pets.

Another project in this area is a park on Leningradsky Prospekt.

At the request of teachers from the nearby art school, a sports area was built. Now, students can play soccer and basketball on the multi-purpose court and develop strength and agility in the workout zone.

Younger children are drawn to the new playground with climbing frames, slides, and play structures. Swings and roundabouts have also been installed, along with a safe surface for active play.

Skate park in the Molzhaninovsky district

Residents of the Molzhaninovsky District now have new opportunities for sports and recreation. A skate park for extreme sports enthusiasts has been established between buildings 6a and 6b of the Perspektiva School, located on 1st Sestroretskaya Street.

The kids practice their skateboarding skills on ramps and rails. Here, young athletes also practice tricks using boxes, simulated stairs, and other elements. The complex's concrete structure provides good traction, reduces noise, and prevents wear on skateboard wheels.

The area around a small pond has been landscaped. Now, the school's immediate vicinity offers a green space for quiet strolls by the water. The project included renovation of existing pedestrian paths and the creation of additional ones to improve access to public transportation stops.

Improvement in the Beskudnikovsky and Golovinsky districts

In the Beskudnikovsky District, the area around residential buildings within the boundaries of Beskudnikovsky Boulevard, Svyatoslava Fedorov Street, and Dmitrovskoye Highway has been transformed.

The playgrounds have been renovated, and now children of all ages have a great time on the colorful slides and climbing frames. Modern swings, merry-go-rounds, and trampolines have been installed. While the children play, parents can relax on the covered benches.

Active recreation enthusiasts now have the opportunity to work out close to home using strength and cardio equipment. A workout zone has also been set up nearby.

They didn't forget about pets either – they created a dog walking area.

To make strolling around the area enjoyable, pedestrian paths have been improved and quiet relaxation areas with park swings and comfortable benches have been created.

In the Golovinsky District, the walking area on Kronstadt Boulevard has been improved. Convenient, illuminated pedestrian paths now lead from public transportation stops to homes.

"The 2025 improvement projects in northern Moscow have expanded high-quality public space and made parks and squares even more comfortable and attractive for residents," the Moscow Mayor noted.
