Varied programme, bright reports and discussions
On 21 - 25 October, the 11th International Conference "Mathematical Modeling and Computational Physics" (MMCP 2024) was held at Yerevan State University (YSU, Armenia). The event was dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the outstanding scientist in the field of elementary particle physics, theoretical and mathematical physics, Director of JINR (2006-2010) Academician Alexey Sisakyan (14.10.1944-01.05.2010). The Conference was organized by the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, A.I.Alikhanyan National Science Laboratory (ANSL) and the Institute for Informatics and Automation Problems of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia (IIAP NAS RA).
Photo exhibition "Keep the balance": cycling as a way of life
Currently, the photo project of the JINR Press Office "Keep the balance" is presented at the exhibition hall of the Cultural Centre "Mir". It consists of two parts: the exhibition and the corporate calendar of JINR for 2025 with photographs and quotes from the Institute's employees - beautiful, brave and active cyclists in recognizable places of Dubna. Different ages, genders, nationalities and laboratories are united by a common topic - a bicycle that helps to maintain a life balance, training to maintain tone and clarity of thought, walks and trips for inspiration.
