Representatives of the RUDN University participated in the 30th annual conference of the Society for Light Treatment and Biological Rhythms (SLTBR)

This scientific conference united researchers from various countries of the world studying the effect of photomodulating effects of visible light on the state of the biological rhythms of the organism.
In recent years, phototherapy (exposure to bright light) has been successfully used in clinical practice (mainly abroad) to treat various disorders of the nervous system and higher nervous activity, such as seasonal affective disorders, depression, mania, sleep disorders, etc.
Dr. med. Blagonravov Mikhail Lvovich, head of the Department of General Pathology and Pathological Physiology of V.A. Frolov Medical Institute took part in the conference and delivered the report on: «The effect of brightlight on blood pressure and heart rate in essential hypertension». He made a presentation of new experimental data, that had been obtained using a unique technique of 24-hour radio-telemetric monitoring of physiological parameters in animals in free-motion mode.
The materials of the conference are published in the international scientific journal «Neuropsychobiology», indexed in the Web of Science database (DOI: 10.1159 / 000489584).
On August 14, a Memorandum of cooperation in the field of science and education was signed between the RUDN and the Assam University of science and technology (India). During the meeting, prospects for cooperation in the field of engineering, physical, mathematical and natural Sciences were discussed.
Adherence to the current scientific agenda, interdisciplinary approach to research and the priority of international collaboration have brought the publication activity of RUDN scientists to a new level. In order to encourage our scientific and pedagogical staff special incentive measures have been developed. Lump sum payments within the framework of Russian Academic Excellence Project 5-100 are established for publications in authoritative journals, external citation and publications in the “open access” mode.
Postgraduate student Peter Harin and Master students Elena Makeeva and Valeria Savich from the Institute of Applied Mathematics and Telecommunications of RUDN University underwent a one-week internship in Austria at Johannes Kepler Universität Linz.
