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 University professor together with colleagues from France and the USA has developed a technique for describing blood clotting regarding the individual characteristics of patients. This will help to make more accurately diagnosis and select drugs dosages for the treatment of haemophilia, thrombosis and other blood coagulation disorders.
RUDN chemists have proven the effectiveness of metal complexes for catalysis of cyanhydrin production — substances important for the chemical industry. Chemists managed to achieve 96.3% of the reaction efficiency.
RUDN University chemists obtained a metal-containing complex with an unusual planar architecture. The unexpected structure was formed due to the spontaneous fixation of carbon dioxide from the air during the reaction. This compound exhibits unusual magnetic properties (spin glass behaviour). This can be useful for creating memory storage devices.
