Reports on the use of the spine corrector in the treatment of children’s scoliosis were made by Professor A. A. Laka, Professor M.T. Sampiev, and Dr. D. Keizer (Germany).
Doctors from Germany, England, Belgium, Brazil and Spain attended. Russian professors’ master class where the latter demonstrated the main stages of surgical intervention, which aroused great interest among specialists who asked to implement this technology in their countries, create training centers, publish books and manuals on this technology. RUDN professor N. Zagorodny expressed hope for the great success of Russian innovations in the field of scoliosis treatment both in children and adults, as well as fruitful cooperation with SIGNUS.
A RUDN chemist has obtained a new compound — a dumbbell-shaped phosphate-bridged molybdenum cluster. The cluster accelerates the reaction of the formation of sulfides from oxides and can be used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic manufacturing.
Mathematicians from RUDN University have studied the properties of compositional operators in spaces with mixed Lebesgue norms. It will help describe the diffusion of liquids in materials with cracks and in porous materials. Such spaces are also useful for obtaining estimates for solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation.
A biophysicist from RUDN University and his colleagues modelled the molecular dynamics of growth of microtubules, the most important elements of cell activity. The researchers have built a model for the interaction of microtubule subunits, which takes into account their internal and external connections. The results will help form a more complete model of the dynamic instability of microtubules. It will allow choosing chemical agents for the treatment of certain diseases, including neoplasms and neurodegenerative pathologies.
