On January 16-18, 2019 in Dublin, the 9th meeting of the COST IRACON Steering Committee was held, as well as the 9th meeting of the participants of the project working groups, organized within the framework of the Integrated Wireless Networks Generations 5G and Above program.
February 5, RUDN hosted a seminar "Modern Advances in Ultrasound and Magnetic Resonance Research in the Diagnosis of Liver Diseases", which was attended by practicing hepatologists, gastroenterologists, endocrinologists, and ultrasound diagnostics doctors. Lorenzo Manneli, a professor at Cambridge University (UK) and New York University (USA), shared his experience with colleagues. The fatty pathology of the liver became the first among liver pathologies - 78% of cases of abnormal liver function are associated with steatosis. Standard ultrasound methods can give an accurate picture only with 25-30% changes in the liver. Leading experts on hepatology from the UK and Russia suggested that ultrasound elastogenesis and steatometry of the liver and MRI be introduced more widely into medical practice.
On November 15, at the Faculty of Philology of the RUDN University, with the support of the Institute of Modern Languages, Intercultural Communication and Migration, a public lecture was delivered by Douglas Ponton, Professor, Department of Analysis of Political, Social and Institutional Processes, University of Catania (Italy), Member of the Editorial Board of the Russian Journal of Linguistics .
