Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University actively participated in the 15th anniversary A.N. Chilingarov International Forum "The Arctic: Present and Future." The forum, which traditionally brings together over 2,000 experts from Russia and abroad, is a key platform for summarizing the Arctic agenda and identifying development strategies for the Russian Arctic zone. The event was held with the support of the Federation Council, the State Duma, the State Commission for Arctic Development, the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East, and other relevant agencies.

The Polytechnic University was represented by Dmitry Tikhonov, Vice-Rector for Continuing and Pre-University Education, as well as faculty and students from the Institute of Civil Engineering. The comprehensive business program included plenary sessions across eight thematic tracks and over 40 sessions featuring over 400 speakers.

The Institute of Civil Engineering was represented by Marina Petrochenko, Director of the Institute of Civil Engineering, Dmitry Sharapov and Vladimir Konyushkov, Associate Professors of the Higher School of Hydrotechnical Engineering and Economics, Maria Drebezgova and Elena Ladik, Associate Professors of the Higher School of Hydrotechnical Engineering and Economics, Liliya Talipova, Senior Lecturer of the Higher School of Hydrotechnical Engineering and Economics, and students from the programs "Hydraulic Engineering, Hydraulics, and Engineering Hydrology" and "Environmental Safety in Industry."

Dmitry Tikhonov presented the university's extensive experience in this field. In his presentation, he detailed practice-oriented projects for students in critically important Arctic areas such as logistics, robotics, IT, and drone development. Particular attention was paid to systematic work with schoolchildren and parents aimed at shaping a "vision of the future" and understanding promising professions in the region.

Dmitry Tikhonov also emphasized the importance of exporting educational technologies to Arctic regions, citing teacher training and master classes in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug as examples. The keynote of his presentation was a comprehensive model for attracting and retaining employees, which creates a sustainable talent pipeline for the Arctic. This model covers the entire process—from early career guidance for schoolchildren to practical training for students and their involvement in real-world projects.

"For the Polytechnic University, working on the Arctic agenda is a systematic effort with plans for years to come," Dmitry Vladimirovich emphasized. "Our educational programs and scientific developments are already in demand by industrial partners working in this strategic macro-region, and demand is constantly growing."

Elena Ladik and Maria Drebezgova spoke at the youth section "Meeting of Generations." It featured educational lectures, quests, quizzes, and other activities. The lecturers presented their professions to the students, shared their experiences working in harsh polar conditions, and discussed the development prospects of the Arctic and Antarctic. Polytechnic University specialists introduced the students to the traditional dwelling architecture of the indigenous peoples of the Russian Arctic and Far North, the application of historical experience in modern design for innovative solutions for the architectural environment in the Arctic zone, and demonstrated conceptual designs for residential and tourist modules for harsh climates. Over 800 students participated in the event.

"I believe it was very important to discuss with the students the historical experience of designing residential environments in the Arctic and the Far North, as well as to draw the attention of the younger generation to the development prospects of Russia's northern territories," said Elena Ladik.

Students of the Civil Engineering Institute took part in the youth

The participants attended the session and visited the exhibition located in the ExpoForum pavilion. The future specialists were delighted to see specialized equipment, interact with representatives of Russia's nomadic peoples, and listen to a firsthand lecture about life in the Far North. The future builders were particularly intrigued by the presentation on the features of traditional Nenets tents.

Arctic development is a priority for our country, and the SPbPU Institute of Civil Engineering contributes to this by training personnel in Arctic construction and conducting research projects on Arctic development. "I consider educational outreach to schoolchildren, through which we share the opportunities that lie ahead in the Arctic, a special mission," noted Marina Petrochenko.

A second-year master's student at the Department of Biomedical Physics is conducting a study on boron accumulation in tumor cells after the administration of boron preparations as potential delivery vehicles for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). Faculty of Physics of Novosibirsk State University Ksenia Kuzmina is working on this study as part of a large research team that includes Novosibirsk State University, the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics SB RAS, the Lebedev Physical Institute RAS, the Prokhorov General Physics Institute RAS, and the Shemyakin and Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry RAS. Her supervisor is Anna Kasatova, a senior researcher at the INP SB RAS and a PhD candidate in medicine. The work is being carried out as part of the strategic technology project "Center for the Integration of Personalized Biomedicine, Pharmacy, and Synchrotron and Binary Technologies" of the Priority 2030 program.

Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a binary form of radiation therapy based on the selective destruction of malignant tumor cells. The key principle of this therapy is the selective destruction of only those cells that contain sufficient amounts of the isotope boron-10. Targeted boron delivery agents are essential for successful implementation of BNCT. Conducting studies on the accumulation of boron-containing agents is an important step in BNCT planning.

This therapy method works by injecting a boron-containing drug into the patient's body, which accumulates specifically in cancer cells. The patient is then irradiated at the INP SB RAS using the VITA (Vacuum Insulated Tandem Accelerator) neutron source. Neutrons interact with the boron accumulated in the tumor, triggering a nuclear reaction that produces heavy ions and alpha particles. These particles destroy the tumor during the nuclear reaction but spare healthy cells, which do not accumulate sufficient boron. Currently, boron-phenylalanine, a second-generation drug for this purpose, is primarily used in clinical practice for targeted boron delivery. Despite promising results obtained in clinical trials, the limited ratio of boron in the tumor to normal tissue in patients treated with boron-phenylalanine requires the development of more effective and selective boron delivery systems. Our Moscow physicist and chemist colleagues synthesized elemental boron nanoparticles, functionalized them with a biocompatible Silane-PEG coating to improve their pharmacokinetic properties, and sent them to us for study of the suitability of this drug for BNCT as a potential agent for boron delivery to tumors, said Ksenia Kuzmina.

Studies of the biodistribution and cytotoxicity of boron nanoparticles were conducted both in vitro (on living cell cultures) and in vivo (on laboratory mice). Two human tumor cell lines—breast carcinoma (BT474) and glioblastoma (U87)—were used in the in vitro study, as well as healthy cells—human fibroblasts (BJ-5ta). The studies established that these nanoparticles were nontoxic for all three cell lines at the concentrations required for successful BNCT. The greatest BNCT effect was observed for the BT474 cell line; according to clonogenic analysis, the proportion of surviving cells was less than 1%. The proportion of surviving U87 cells in the BNCT group was 35%, which significantly differs from the result obtained in the control group.

To study the in vivo biodistribution of boron after intratumoral administration of elemental boron nanoparticles to mice bearing the BT474 tumor, the scientists used inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. The boron concentration in the tumor was 163 μg/g 30 minutes after administration, and 64 μg/g after 90 minutes. Boron-10 concentrations in the blood and muscle were significantly lower. The tumor-to-normal tissue ratio of boron concentrations was 15 and 4 at the 30- and 90-minute time points, respectively, exceeding the ratio for second-generation targeted delivery agents. This indicates the greater selectivity of the nanoparticles studied.

"Research into the accumulation of boron nanoparticles in tumor and healthy cells is ongoing. Our goal is to find a delivery system that will accumulate very well in tumors but retain minimally in the blood, kidneys, liver, and brain. With the launch of the Siberian Ring Photon Source (SKIF), we will be able to screen new compounds for the development of targeted boron delivery systems, study the mechanism of this process, and determine the molecular structures of these substances. We hope to be among the first users of SKIF," said Ksenia Kuzmina.

On December 11-12, Novosibirsk State University is hosting the interregional scientific and practical conference "University Meetings. Novosibirsk—a Center for Innovation in Medicine." The event is organized by Novosibirsk State University, the Center for Postgraduate Medical Education of the Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies (CPME IMMT) of NSU, the Novosibirsk Region Ministry of Health, the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and the Association of Doctors.

The program includes scientific reports, master classes with leading specialists in dermato-oncology, psychology, and cardiology, a roundtable discussion on problem areas in medical services, and discussions with colleagues from various cities across the Russian Federation on their development as specialists. This year, the main topic of the University Meetings is obesity.

The conference was opened by Chief Scientific Secretary of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Doctor of Medical Sciences Andrey Tulupov.

NSU Rector and RAS Academician Mikhail Fedoruk also delivered a welcoming speech.

— We were the third in the country to launch medical education at a classical university, after Moscow and St. Petersburg. Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies of NSU "IMT NSU is one of the youngest departments at NSU. Medical education is becoming increasingly important to us, which is especially relevant given the infrastructure upgrades and the opening of the new educational and research center of the Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies at NSU in 2026. I am confident that IMT NSU will develop successfully, in particular through conferences such as these, which bring together students, residents, postgraduate students, and leading medical specialists," noted Mikhail Fedoruk.

At the beginning of the conference, Irina Sergeeva, Director of the Center for Preventive Medical Research at the NSU Institute of Medical and Technological Technologies, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor, and Professor of the Department of Fundamental Medicine at the NSU Institute of Medical and Technological Technologies, delivered an introductory presentation on the history of medical education and focused on the current state of medical education and its future.

"Medical universities are transforming into polytechnics; almost every medical university is incorporating technologies and product-focused departments. Another trend is artificial intelligence, which will be used in both education and practice. Technological innovations, such as digital twins, are becoming especially important, as they can replace real people in patient care," Irina Sergeeva emphasized.

Health maintenance and prevention are also very important for people today, and general health assessments—checkups—are becoming a fashionable trend, which is also influencing medical education.

"According to some medical approaches, a doctor treats illnesses, not health. Meanwhile, conducting a checkup and responding to the tests conducted should not only be aimed at identifying the disease but also at interpreting the results and supporting the patient's health, which is what most of our patients request," noted Irina Sergeeva.

In medical education, a certain tension between the personal and the social will persist, as education in other fields is more rapid, while medical education takes longer. The trend toward interdisciplinarity will also persist.

Following Irina Sergeeva's presentation, a plenary session began, dedicated to various aspects of obesity. The session was interdisciplinary and featured a new scientific kaleidoscope format—short presentations from various fields of medicine on the topic of obesity.

Elena Aksenova, Deputy Minister of Health of the Novosibirsk Region, noted in her report that among the main risks for developing non-communicable chronic diseases, along with poor diet and low physical activity, are excess weight and obesity as a diagnosis. Obesity reduces life expectancy, and the higher the stage of obesity, the higher these risks, as confirmed by research. Therefore, the government is taking a number of measures aimed at reducing risk factors. One of the projects being implemented at the federal level is the "Health for Everyone" project. It aims to expand preventive services, such as health centers and preventive medical centers and departments. It also includes strengthening municipal and corporate programs at enterprises and resuming occupational health care at enterprises, where screenings and medical observations are conducted in the workplace.

As part of the University Meetings, an exhibition is being held featuring the city's medical institutions that serve as clinical training sites for NSU students and residents. The exhibition also showcases NSU's IMMT pilot project—an exhibition of prototype simulators for practicing practical skills.

On December 11th, three sections on various topics were organized after lunch: cardiology and neurology; allergology, dermatology, and cosmetology; and gastroenterology and endocrinology. That same day, a roundtable discussion on medical services was held, attended by the heads of the Zdravitsa Family Medicine Center, the Pasman Clinic, and the Krasnoozersky Sanatorium. At the roundtable, Marina Kudaka, PhD, Associate Professor and Director of the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology at ChSU, presented the results of a survey conducted among patients, doctors, and clinic managers on their priorities in medical services.

On the second day, December 12, a meeting will be held at which guests from NSU—Irina Smirnova, President of the Association of Specialists in Diseases of the AGO; Elena Kurnyavkina, Chief Physician of the Krasnozersky Sanatorium; Yulia Krinitsyna, Honorary Professor of the Institute of Medical Technologies and the Golden Dermatoscope Award winner; Daria Luchinina, Director of the Institute of Chemistry and Ecology at Vyatka State University; Lyudmila Vlasova, First Chief Physician of the Zdravitsa Medical Center; and Olga Letyaeva, Editor-in-Chief of the South Ural Medical Journal—will discuss possible career paths in medicine with students and residents.

The event will conclude with a situational role-playing game, "HIV. An Insider's View," jointly organized by students and psychology faculty from the NSU Institute of Medical and Technical Medicine. The game will address issues of social adaptation for patients living with HIV.

Opening of the competition. In the presidium (from left to right) are Andrey Nikulin, Ilya Gladushevsky, and Dmitry Ulrikh.

The St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering held a test as part of the "Digital GTO" project. Participants—high school and college students—were required to answer 100 questions on construction, design, and 3D modeling in one hour. A score of 75 or higher earns five additional points toward their Unified State Exam score. The university will hold a ceremony in the spring, where the winners will receive personalized certificates.

The "Digital GTO" is an interactive test within the "I am the Builder of the Future!" career guidance project of the Public Council under the Ministry of Construction of Russia. It is implemented with the support of industry associations and construction companies. The "Digital GTO" is designed to help prospective students determine their level of digital competencies in the construction industry. The project's goal is to expand admission opportunities, promote the training of in-demand professionals, and address the engineering skills shortage.

Welcoming the participants, Andrey Nikulin, Dean of the Faculty of Civil Engineering, noted that digitalization in the construction industry is rapidly developing, and modern engineers need to combine fundamental professional training with digital skills: "Your desire to master digital technologies is absolutely correct and promising. Today, construction companies are increasingly seeking specialists capable of working with digital products. Employers say it's easier to teach a civil engineer IT than vice versa. Therefore, competitions like these open up additional opportunities."

Dmitry Ulrikh, Dean of the Faculty of Environmental Engineering and Urban Management, emphasized the importance of participating in such projects for building applicants' portfolios: "Getting five points higher on your Unified State Exam score is a significant advantage. Sometimes, even half a point can decide the outcome of an admissions campaign. Accumulate your achievements—this is your foundation for your future profession. I really hope to see you among our university's students!"

Admissions Committee Secretary Ilya Gladushevsky wished all participants confidence and a desire to learn new things: "Every step you take today brings you, future applicants, closer to a successful professional career. The university has opened its doors for you, and now the most important thing is to boldly follow your digital path."

On December 11, representatives of the State University of Management spoke at the 13th meeting of the Coordinating Council of the scientific and educational consortium "Eurasian Network University" (ENU), which was held in a mixed format at the National Research University "MPEI".

The event brought together heads of leading universities and experts from countries of the Eurasian Economic Union to review the year's results and identify prospects for further cooperation.

Key figures in Eurasian integration participated in the council's work, including Alexey Vedev, Director of the Macroeconomic Policy Department of the Eurasian Economic Commission, and his deputy, Kanybek Azhekbarov. Also present in person were Vladimir Stroyev, Rector of the State University of Management; Mikhail Shvetsov, Rector of the Mari State University; Igor Alekseyev, Rector of the V.N. Tatishchev Astrakhan State University; and other representatives of the academic community.

The meeting was opened by Nikolai Rogalev, Chairman of the ESU Coordinating Council and Rector of the National Research University "MPEI," who noted the impressive growth momentum of the alliance: seven new universities joined the alliance this year, bringing the total number of members to 41.

The central element of the agenda was a detailed report by the head of the ESU Secretariat, Vice-Rector of the State University of Management, Dmitry Bryukhanov, on the results of the consortium's activities in 2025.

"This year has been eventful. Three meetings of the Coordinating Council and five working group meetings were held, six joint continuing professional education programs were developed and launched, with 196 students from EAEU countries already enrolled. Research and development activities have been actively developed, and two new specialized centers were established: the Center for Digital Energy and Engineering at MPEI and the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics at MSTU STANKIN. The second ESU Olympiad for applicants to master's programs was a success, with 40 winners and runners-up, including from Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Belarus, and Armenia," said Dmitry Yuryevich.

The SUMU Vice-Rector noted that educational initiatives were an important component: the Summer School at the M. Ryskulbekov Kyrgyz University of Economics, the Winter School on Marketing at the State University of Management, and an internship for faculty with in-person modules at the Eurasian Economic Commission and the O.E. Kutafin Moscow State Law University (MSAL).

Council members discussed the results of the 3rd ESU Forum in Osh, which brought together 264 participants, a series of three scientific and educational exhibitions in Yekaterinburg, Bishkek, and Osh, and three international scientific and practical conferences.

"A significant event in 2025 was the ESU consortium's victory in the prestigious "Symbols of Eurasian Integration" competition, organized by the Agency for Strategic Initiatives. The Eurasian Network University was awarded first place in the "Human Capital" category, recognizing its contribution to training personnel for the Eurasian space," Dmitry Bryukhanov concluded his report.

The agenda continued with presentations by Irina Shkolyar, Director of International Cooperation at the Russian Foreign Trade Academy, on the results of the "Art of Negotiation" Negotiation Marathon, and Arapbaev Nurmamatovich, Vice-Rector for Research at Osh State University, who presented a report on the establishment of the "Center for Innovative Technologies of the Eurasian Economic Union" at Osh State University.
