The interactive exposition of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science as part of the International Exhibition and Forum “Russia” has been replenished with new exhibits. 25 new objects have been added to the exhibition, which has been running since November, including models of the NICA accelerator complex, the Arctic bus "Arktika", the expeditionary research vessel "Professor Molchanov" and others.
The exhibition demonstrates the changes that have occurred over the past 20 years in Russian science and shows the opportunities for self-realization of young people in the field of research and development. 14 thematic halls of the exhibition are dedicated to modern Russian achievements in the field of science, technology and higher education. Visitors can find out what results of Russian scientists are already being applied in medicine, construction, energy and agriculture, what Russian researchers are working on today, how in the near future, thanks to this work, the quality of life of Russian citizens may change, what prospects await young people who decide to connect their life with science.
There is a “Personal Track” system for exhibition visitors: everyone at the entrance can receive a bracelet with an RFID tag, which can be used to answer questions posted in the thematic halls. At the end of the exhibition - when the information is finally read from the bracelet - the algorithm generates personal recommendations for building a career in science.
In total, the exhibition features more than 60 exhibits, including unique solutions:
- robotic medical system and manipulator for 3D bioprinting;
- small spacecraft “Yarilo” No. 5 for analyzing the chemical composition of the atmosphere;
- unmanned aerial system "Kontur" for autonomous continuous monitoring of a given territory in order to detect regime violations;
- optical module of the detector of the BaikalGVD deep-sea neutrino telescope;
- manual autonomous complex of two-component bioprinting for the treatment of wound surfaces “Tissue Gun”;
- mock-ups of megascience class installations NICA and SILA and much more.
Also at the exhibition there is a unique scientific laboratory from the “NASHA LABA” (our laboratory) project. It houses unique research equipment produced in Russia and Belarus, and regularly conducts demonstrations and experiments. The laboratory's topics change monthly. In January, the biological and agricultural laboratory is presented, in February - the physical and engineering laboratory.
The exhibition “A Decade of Science and Technology” is located in pavilion No. 57 at VDNKh.
University weeks are regularly held here, where representatives of higher education and research institutes from different regions of Russia give lectures and talk about the achievements of domestic scientists. Visitors can also learn more about and participate in the Decade's initiatives.
