Bashkortostan Head Says Number of Young Researchers Under 29 Has Risen

Bashkortostan Head Radiy Khabirov shared a new social media post about the growing number of young scientists in the republic. Over the past two years, the number of researchers aged 29 and under rose by almost 40 and now exceeds 900. Khabirov called this a very worthy result.

Khabirov said the inter-university student campus of the Eurasian Scientific and Educational Center is one of the main projects. It houses 24 laboratories, including a youth laboratory. Research carried out there, he said, is used in medicine, industry, agriculture and many other sectors.

Over five years, 133 people received republic budget subsidies to improve their housing, and more than 500 completed internships at leading research and education institutions in Russia and abroad. Khabirov said the second stage of the campus will be completed soon.
