The event organized jointly with JINR is taking place from 24 to 28 January online. Conferences of the MCE series are interdisciplinary and are aimed at consolidation of efforts of scientists and professors, preservation of traditions of Russian science and education, scientific and teaching staff training in the fields of math modelling and IT, attracting the youth to science and education.

JINR Director Grigory Trubnikov welcomed participants of the event and noted the necessity to hold conferences the topic of which is at the intersection of sciences. Academician Trubnikov also highlighted the existing cooperation between JINR and the Pushchino Scientific Centre for Biological Research RAS, which is one of the organizers of the MCE Conference.
