MOSCOW, November 24 - RIA Novosti. The RAS ruled out the possibility of officials leaving the academy, since membership in it is for life. At the same time, the organization noted that each applicant for an “academic” place made the decision to participate in the elections independently.

The day before, President Vladimir Putin threatened to fire academic civil servants in order to leave them time for scientific research.

Tulokhonov: only officials are prohibited from combining work with membership in the RASThe President spoke unequivocally about the executive authorities, about the civil service, in which it is really impossible to combine activities; this “absolutely does not apply to parliamentarians,” said Senator Arnold Tulokhonov.

At the end of October, 25 officials stood for election to the Russian Academy of Sciences, 14 of whom eventually received academic titles.

In particular, Senator Arnold Tulokhonov became an academician, and Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs - Head of the Investigation Department Alexander Savenkov, Head of the FSB Registration and Archive Funds Department Vasily Khristoforov and Deputy Director for Science of the Russian Foundation basic research Igor Sheremet - Corrami member.

Scientific work only

At a meeting of the Council for Science and Education, Putin recalled that at the end of 2015 he asked his colleagues not to take part in the elections to the Russian Academy of Sciences. The head of state then explained his position by saying that it is difficult to combine scientific and managerial activities.

This also applies to governors: Putin reminded about the rules of membership in the Russian Academy of SciencesA person cannot occupy large, visible positions that require him to devote time and effort and at the same time engage in serious research work, noted the Russian President.

“However, some of our colleagues from the Presidential Administration, from the Ministry of Education, from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, from the Ministry of Defense, from Federal service Security, from the FSB and from some other departments took part in the election (to the Academy of Sciences) and were elected,” Putin said.

President of the Russian Academy of Sciences Vladimir Fortov told the president that all candidates assured that they had received permission to participate in the competition. As a result, officials passed the tests “without any exceptions or exceptions.”

“I think that I will have to give them the opportunity to engage in science, because, apparently, their scientific activity is much more important than the performance of some routine administrative duties in government and government bodies,” Putin said.

"The question arises whether they can engage scientific research in full with the desired results,” the president added.

Personal initiative

Peskov assessed the chances of officials elected to the RAS to retain their postsThe head of state promised the employees of the Presidential Administration, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the FSB, elected to Russian Academy sciences, provide the opportunity to study only scientific activities instead of working in government.

The chief scientific secretary of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Mikhail Paltsev, said that each official personally made the decision to participate in the elections. At the same time, he admitted that the academy knew about Putin’s recommendation.

“We accepted them according to scientific criteria. Everyone who participated in the elections met these requirements,” Paltsev said.

According to the procedure, each candidate must speak to the academicians six times, and after each speech, the current members of the academy vote on the candidates.

Meanwhile, a RIA Novosti source at the Russian Academy of Sciences said that if the official members of the academy decide to renounce the title, they will not be able to do so.

“These appeals will not be accepted at all, because they do not comply with the charter (of the Russian Academy of Sciences),” said the agency’s interlocutor.

The head of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Vladimir Fortov, later said that none of the newly minted scientists had yet asked to be expelled from the academy.

The end goal is clear

Meanwhile, presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov noted that Putin has clearly stated his position on this issue.

“All relevant departments clearly listened to what the president said. They are now looking into this situation,” Peskov told reporters.

“But the final goal is clearly outlined by the president,” Peskov concluded.

What does an academic title give?

RAS is the largest state academy Sciences in Russia, now it includes 944 academicians, all of them are elected for life.

Formally, the title "academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences" is not considered academic title, however, provides a number of privileges. These include the right to a monthly supplement to the official salary at the place of work.

Academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the list of which is replenished every year, are the holders of the highest status in national science. A citizen can count on the title of academician Russian Federation, publishing scientific works of great social importance in all possible fields of knowledge. As of 2017, there are almost a thousand RAS academicians in Russia, 932 to be precise. According to the charter, their main and only goal is to enrich science with their achievements.

How to become an academician?

In 2012 he became a Doctor of Science. His research interests also include electron beam cooling, beam generation, storage rings, and object-oriented programming.

Academician at 32 years old

Before anyone else alive, another physicist received the title - Alexander Nikolaevich Skrinsky. He was born in Orenburg in 1936.

He worked on experimental problems and studied accelerators and high-energy physics. With his participation, the latest types of colliders were developed and created. Since 1968, corresponding member. At that time he was only 32 years old. Two years later he received the title “Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences”.

Subsequently, he developed a method for electron cooling and detection of polarized beams. He played a decisive role in the development of applied physics, as well as in the creation of the latest types of lasers and beam technologies.

Physiologist-academician

In 2016, full members of the RAS accepted physiologist Lev Girshevich Magazanik into their ranks. To receive an honorary title at such an age is a kind of record, at least among living academicians.

Lev Girshevich was born in Odessa in 1931. In his area scientific research- the work of ion channels, the effect of neurotoxins on various types and types of receptors. Among his inventions are unique instruments that made it possible to study the organization of molecules in membranes.

The store conducted joint research with foreign scientists around the world - in France, Switzerland, Great Britain, and Germany. The result of his work was the creation of new drugs that help establish interaction between neurons in healthy and sick people

Doctors among academicians

Academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences are currently elected in 12 departments and sections. Medicine occupies one of the key places on this list. The majority of academics here are women. One of them is obstetrician-gynecologist Leila Vladimirovna Adamyan.

She was born in Tbilisi. She received her education in Moscow. From 1989 to the present day, he has headed the department of operative gynecology at the corresponding research institute. In 2004 she was awarded the title of academician.

Leyla Adamyan is famous for her perfect command of all types of gynecological operations known to science today. The objects of her research are the use of x-rays in reproductive medicine. He works a lot on the treatment of pregnant women and children.

Thanks to it, modern surgical technologies are used today, which have made it possible to at least halve the severity and consequences of adhesions that occur after gynecological operations.

Academic mathematicians

Another area of ​​knowledge that is traditionally preferred by academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the list of which is subsequently replenished, is mathematics.

Nowadays, one of the most famous scientists in this field is Ludwig Dmitrievich Faddeev, who became a member of the RAS back in 1976. He specializes in the field of mathematical physics.

Most of his works and research are devoted to solving three-body problems in quantum mechanics. IN modern science this problem is known by its name - the Faddeev equation. He also works on the Schrödinger equation. He is the author of two hundred scientific works and monographs.

They can be proud that RAS is among them. Mathematicians devote a lot of time to theoretical work, but it is often appreciated. In 2008, Ludwig Faddeev received the Shao Prize in Hong Kong, awarded annually to the best scientific minds in the world. He received the award in the “Mathematics” category with another compatriot Vladimir Arnold. Their contribution to the popularization of mathematical physics was appreciated.

The Russian Academy of Sciences was replenished with 176 new academicians, 323 corresponding members and 63 foreign members. Gazeta.Ru found out how complicated the nomination procedure is and what the status of a member of the academy gives today, with the help of academicians.

As the President of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Academician Vladimir Fortov, noted in his speech, the procedure for nomination and election of the Russian Academy of Sciences is complex; he himself counted either six or five secret ballots that candidates for membership in the Academy undergo.

And indeed, the procedure itself began back in April, when it was published distribution of vacancies among departments and sections of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Depending on the situation within the sections, the number of available vacancies for the title of academicians and corresponding members of the RAS was announced.

Moreover, the rules are such that vacancies were indicated separately with and without age restrictions (up to 61 years).

Elections of members of the academy are held at least once every three years. In 2013, the beginning of the reform of the Russian Academy of Sciences forced the postponement next elections, Thus, last time its composition was renewed five years ago, and for natural reasons, during this considerable period of time, new vacancies appeared in it.

“A lot of people have died, there haven’t been elections for five years, during which time, unfortunately, a lot of people have left us,” the first interlocutor explained to Gazeta.Ru.

For example, in the section nuclear physics, which, together with the section of general physics and astronomy, makes up the department of physical sciences, five vacancies without age restrictions were announced for the title of academician, two vacancies with age restrictions and one for the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. For the title of corresponding member there are six vacancies without restrictions, five with restrictions and one for the Siberian branch.

They have the right to nominate members of the Academy scientific organizations, scientific councils, as well as academicians and corresponding members.

Candidates are first reviewed by an expert commission within each department or section, which includes all or the majority of its academicians. At this event, academicians review materials submitted by departments for candidates and recommend or not recommend individual personalities.

“Academicians sit in the section and discuss for a long time who deserves the title.

People usually don’t talk about someone who is not worthy, no one expresses negative emotions, negative emotion— this is silence,” said an academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, a member of the expert commission.

After this, a secret vote takes place, which is carried out by filling out ballot papers. Formally, the decision of the expert commission is of a recommendatory nature, which, however, plays a role in further voting within the section of the department - the names of those recommended will be at the top of the list of candidates.

In their decisions, expert commissions are guided by their assessments of the authority of scientists and the significance of the achievements that stand behind them. In this case, objective scientometric indicators often play a secondary role. “What kind of Hirschis are there (Hirsch index. - Gazeta.Ru)! Maybe someone remembers them, but in general, the people who are elected have strong works and discoveries, so the main criterion is scientific results,” the interlocutor explained. Other circumstances are also taken into account - for example, if a person leads a strong team of experimenters, is the director of an institute, he is chosen to maintain control over the institutions.

“A lot, of course, happens behind closed doors, but we really don’t have nepotism in the sense of children and grandchildren. Nepotism exists when a teacher can intercede for his student,” he added about the physical sciences department.

After the expert commission, voting for candidates takes place within the section and department itself, where they vote on all candidates, but taking into account the opinion of the expert commission. Then the candidates approved by the department are put on the ballot of the general meeting of the Academy of Sciences, which takes place on a non-alternative basis, where the scientist is likely to be approved.

However, in the case of a controversial figure, members of the academy more than once “failed” people’s candidacies.

“At one time, the honorary academician and some of his protégés passed through the departments. And the general meeting overwhelmed them,” explained the first interlocutor. The Academy may refuse to grant the title of Academician to "controversial" figures when it believes that the person has not earned the title, or believes that it will be awarded for political reasons.

In recent times, a similar story happened with the director, for whom 204 members cast their votes with a passing minimum of 248 votes (two-thirds of all participants).

There was a case when academicians refused to accept a minister into their ranks nuclear industry and scientists, who some believe were not chosen based on their ethnicity.

Despite the regulation of all stages, there is one informal procedure that is not spelled out in the rules - the so-called tea party with the president of the academy, which occurs after voting in expert commissions and before voting within departments. This is a tribute to a tradition that was inherited from the USSR Academy of Sciences; it was described in detail and with humor by the famous Soviet astrophysicist Joseph Shklovsky in his collection “Echelon”.

“By tradition, branch members are invited by the president to announce the results of the selection committee’s work, after which a preliminary exchange of views on the candidates begins. Meanwhile, the servants are serving rather thin tea with lemon and bowls of cookies. First, in the presence of all members of the department, candidates for corresponding members are discussed, after which the corresponding members are shamefully expelled from the hall, like schoolchildren from the teachers' council. But these are older people—many of them are directors!” — the scientist wrote.

This tradition has remained to this day; during tea parties, members of branches share with the president their opinions on candidates and listen to his thoughts. For example, Vladimir Fortov expressed general wishes that the candidates be younger, so that vacancies do not disappear during the voting. Vacancies can indeed disappear in cases where a strong group of candidates is selected and one of them fails to get two-thirds of the votes.

Any member of the department can come to the tea party, however, some do not participate in it, considering it empty.

“Rogues” and “chansanettes”

There were no major scandals during the voting at the general meeting. True, one cannot fail to note two trends, which, however, were visible long before the vote. The example of Ruslan, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, winner of the Blaise Pascal Medal in the field of materials science for 2011, one of the most cited Russian scientists, who was nominated from the section of materials sciences, became quite discussed in the scientific community.

“Within this section there are strong corporate ties between several institutes located in Moscow, which have seized all the power and choose each other regardless of scientific merit,” the second interlocutor explained to Gazeta.Ru. According to Gazeta.Ru, Valiev was disliked by a very specific academician, so this is not the first time Valiev has been “taken for a ride.” By the way, at the aforementioned tea party Fortov raised this issue, to which it was said that Valiev’s materials are not used in industry. “Firstly, they are being used, and secondly, if we talk like this, then in general half the sections should be closed,” the academician believes.

Be that as it may, the son of the section chairman, academician, was elected to the vacancy of corresponding member, for which Valiev, among others, applied.

“In terms of the number of chosen relatives, I’m afraid we have set a record. There are a lot of names of children of living academicians on the list,” the interlocutor added.

The only names that are well-known are doctors and Irina Chazova, the daughter of the famous Kremlin cardiologist, who followed her father to head the cardiocenter.

“We have estimated that there are ten to twelve such cases out of five hundred, that is, at the level of 2%. We cannot prohibit this, it is illogical and wrong, since it puts the children of academicians outside the scientific field,” the President of the Russian Academy of Sciences responded to a Gazeta.Ru correspondent when asked to comment on this trend.

The unique approach to elections in the department of medicine is evidenced by the fact that the number of vacancies for the title of academician with an age limit coincided with the number of candidates. And if in other departments the competition reached 20-30 people per place, in the department of medical sciences it was one person per place.

“In fact, 25 academicians will not be elected, but appointed; apparently, they understand the word “election” differently than a large academy,” the interlocutor explained.

At the same time, a specialist in the field of polymer chemistry, mega-grantee Alexander, did not receive support from the Department of Medical Sciences. Just as the mathematician, Fields Prize winner, with whom Kabanov convinced of the need to allocate 3.5 billion rubles, did not receive support. to support young scientists and other scientific projects in Russia.

The director of the State Astronomical Institute, the academician, does not hide his joy that several famous astrophysicists have joined the academy. This is the head of the department of planetary physics at the Institute of Space Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Oleg Korablev, under whose leadership the instrument that was recently sent to Mars was created; Marat Gilfanov - presenter Researcher IKI RAS; - supervisor scientific program space experiment"Radioastron"; - Scientific Director of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

The title of academician was undoubtedly deservedly received by the famous physicist, who was fired from the Institute of Theoretical and Scientific Research in a scandal a year ago. experimental physics. Danilov is a well-known scientist in Russia and the West, a recognized expert in the field of physics elementary particles, laureate of the Planck and Karpinsky prizes. He is on the advisory board of CERN, on the scientific councils of a number of international experiments, and participates in the search experiment dark matter, heads departments at MIPT and.

What does the title of academician or corresponding member give today? Less than in Soviet times, but also a lot. In addition to honor and respect, this is a certain, and lifelong, monetary allowance.

In 2013, at the height of the reform of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the stipend for the academy members was increased, and academicians began to receive 100 thousand rubles, corresponding members - 50 thousand.

In addition, they can, if necessary, call a car from the academic garage for occasional trips. Members of the academy are also attached to the clinic of the Administration of the President of Russia; they and their family members were assigned there last summer. It is possible to use the services of various resort institutions, one of which is the Uzkoe sanatorium in Moscow, and others.

However, there is one more privilege that comes with being a member of the RAS. “I also have the right that a civil memorial service for me will be held at the Academy of Sciences. “In the “Golden Brains” (the RAS building on Leninsky Prospekt. - Gazeta.Ru) there is a funeral hall, and when members of the academy die, a civil memorial service takes place there,” the RAS academician joked.

Acquainted with full list selected academicians and corresponding members can be found on the website
