Scientific-popular lecture «Secrets of the genetic code»
February 9 at 17.00 in the State Biological Museum. KA Timiryazev held a popular science lecture "Secrets of the genetic code." About how the information encapsulated in DNA is encoded, transmitted and realized, what mutations are and why they occur, the cat first discovered the secret of the structure of the most important molecule of life, the associate professor of the Moscow Agricultural Academy named after. KA Timiryazev, Candidate of Biological Sciences Lyudmila Semenovna Bolshakova.
The continuation of the lecture program will take place on the 16th of March: you will learn which genes are "conducted" by the development of plants and by the "creation" of beautiful flowers.

RUDN mathematicians investigated the possibility of combining 5 GNR technology and WiGig — a high-frequency range that allows you to transfer data at speeds up to 10 Gbps. This will smooth traffic fluctuations in 5Gnetworks and cope with user requests.
Scientists from the Winogradsky Institute of Microbiology RAS, RUDN University, St. Petersburg State University and the Tyumen Scientific Centre SB RAS studied the microbial communities from several lakes of the Yamal Peninsula. It turned out that methanotrophs (bacteria that use methane as a source of energy) consume methane more actively in the deep mature lakes of the peninsula than in small thermokarst lakes. In this regard, methane emissions into the atmosphere from the surface of deep lakes are low, and only small (relatively younger thermokarst lakes with constitutional ground ice) can make a significant contribution to methane emissions in the north of Western Siberia. Thus, bacteria perform an important function for the climate balance — they reduce the emission of methane into the atmosphere.
RUDN University physicists have described the conditions for the most efficient operation of long mirror-based variant of cyclotron in the autoresonance mode. These data will bring better understanding of plasma processes in magnetic traps.
