In June, 2017 Olga Stanislavovna Chesnokova is Doctor of Philology, professor, professor of department of foreign languages of philological faculty of RUDN participated in the conference: «The russian-spanish dialogue: to the 40 anniversary of recovery of diplomatic relations» with the report «Little-known pages of Spanish studies. Constant Brousilov: philologist and translator». The report has been devoted to the personality, philological and translation heritage of Constant Brousilov, the author of the first translation of the poem «Demon» M.Yu. Lermontov into Spanish.
Biologists from RUDN University working together with their colleagues from the Institute of Molecular Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Flax studied the genes that determine the fatty acid composition in flaxseed oil and identified polymorphisms in six of them. The team also found out what gene variations could extend the shelf life of flaxseed oil. This data can be used to improve the genetic selection of new flax breeds. The results were published in the BMC Plant Biology journal.
The soils of urban gardens and vegetable patches contain a lot of toxicants (including lead and arsenic) in high concentrations which can be harmful to the health of children and people with chronic diseases. A team of soil scientists from RUDN University suggested a remediation method developed based on data collected in a garden of Brooklyn (NY, U.S.).

A team of biologists analyzed soil samples from a pasture and a regularly mowed meadow and found out that grazing lets more carbon get into the soil than mowing. This, in turn, improves the carbon cycle and makes microorganisms more efficient.
