A multi-format educational project on a non-profit basis, operating since 2014. The goal is to popularize science and culture with a special focus on educating young people. Format: organizing lectures by leading scientists throughout Russia, recording video podcasts and creating various scientific media content.
The largest community of science and technology popularizers in the Russian Federation with a representative office in each region and in the CIS countries. Hosting more than 300 events and creating more than 500 pieces of content per year.
The project has been operating since 2014. Team expansion. Scaling to regions.

Reproductive medicine is becoming part of long-term life planning. Cryopreservation and genetic technologies enable individuals to treat fertility as a resource — one that can be preserved and used in accordance with medical indications and personal circumstances. In this lecture, you will learn: - what a reproductive biobank is, the challenges it faces, and why for many it represents the only way to preserve the possibility of future parenthood; - how donor programs operate and why only a small proportion of candidates pass rigorous multi-stage screening; - the role of genetic screening in donor selection and the risks it helps mitigate; - how cryostorage technologies are transforming family planning strategies and expanding the capabilities of modern medicine.

Emergency medical services represent one of the most robust and essential pillars of healthcare systems. Over the past 150 years, they have evolved from horse-drawn patient transport to high-tech, near–real-time systems incorporating telemedicine, digital dispatch, and mobile diagnostics. This lecture explores the evolution of emergency care in Russia — how its mission, workforce, technologies, and organizational models have changed — and why the field is now entering a phase of accelerated technological advancement. It examines the historical context, the state of ambulance services in Russia as of 2026 (including workforce, organization, and technology), and future scenarios — from AI-assisted dispatch systems and wearable sensors to fundamentally new models of emergency care delivery.

Is the absence of pain always good? This lecture addresses the genetic basis of pain perception. You will learn how genetic variation influences pain sensitivity, which disruptions can lead to rare conditions — including congenital insensitivity to pain — and how contemporary research and clinical case studies reveal the complex relationship between genetics and the perception of threat. This topic deepens our understanding of human physiology and offers a new perspective on health and the body’s protective responses.

On Tuesday, 28 April, join the lecture “Gut microbiome for longevity” and learn how the microbiota supports health, what current research says, and which solutions are emerging in this field. Science 16+ Topic: “Gut microbiome for longevity” Speaker: Sofya Tsvetikova — head of microbiology at Novabiom, a Medtech resident; lecturer and researcher at ITMO University. Abstract: Did you know there is a whole ecosystem inside us? Trillions of gut microbes influence immunity, metabolism, inflammation, chronic disease risk, and aging. Today, microbiome research opens new paths for preventive medicine and a fresh look at age-related change. You will learn: - why the microbiome is treated as a “new organ”; - what functions it performs; - which lifestyle and dietary habits support gut health and slow age-related change; - how shifts in microbiota relate to age-associated disease; - what biomarker search and machine learning reveal from microbiome profiles; - why microbiota research underpins personalized, digital, and preventive medicine. Please bring ID. Venue: Medtech Technopark, Vernadsky Prospekt 96 (Troparyovo metro), Moscow — see map link on the Russian event page.

We are accustomed to implants designed for permanence — titanium devices intended to last a lifetime, and polymers with variable long-term behavior. However, some materials are designed to function temporarily and then safely degrade once their role is complete. Magnesium is one such material. This lecture examines how biodegradable metallic implants can be engineered to degrade in a controlled manner without harming the body. The work is driven by a megagrant-funded research team: a lab built from the ground up, successive experimental series, animal models from rodents to minipigs, and patients who already receive such implants.
