The winner of the contest is RUDN Journal of Psychology and Pedagogics. The editor-in-chief is Victoria Kurilenko - Professor, Head of the Russian Language Department of the RUDN Medical Institute, holder of an Advanced Doctorate in Pedagogical Sciences.
The journal will receive financial support for its activities in implementing the 2020 development program submitted to the competition.
On January 29, 2020, after the expert assessment, a working meeting was held between representatives of the editorial boards of 8 RUDN scientific journals of the University with leading experts of the Elsevier Russian representative office Galina Yakshonok and Andrei Mikhailov. Colleagues answered the editors' questions and made recommendations for further improvement of the editorial policy in the context of the entry in the International Scientometric Databases.
In 2020, the Moscow City Government will begin to monitor urban trees using devices created by RUDN scientists. This was announced by the head of Moscow Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection Anton Kulbachevsky during the 20th anniversary meeting of the Panel of the Department. The event was held on March 2, 2020. Elvira Dovletyarova, head of the Department of Landscape Design and Sustainable Ecosystems of the Agrarian and Technological Institute of RUDN University took the floor as a visiting expert.
A chemist at RUDN University has invented a new method for the synthesis of a large group of complex poly-heterocyclic organic compounds, which draw interest as possible future medications. The researcher turned to a two-step reaction, in which he used affordable and cheap organic reagents and catalysts based on gold, which allowed him to synthesize as many as 28 new molecules. This approach will significantly expand the libraries of biologically active substances. The work was published in Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry.
RUDN University soil scientists visualized for the first time the activity of the phosphatase enzyme in the soil surrounding the roots of a plant by simultaneously using zymography and a fibre optic acidity sensor. This helped them to see how the plants “adjust” their root system to the environment. The study was published in the journal Soil Biology and Biochemistry.
