JINR Chief Scientific Secretary Sergey Nedelko presented the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research at the event.In his speech, he stressed what a difficult field of activity RIEPL is engaged in. “The science organization is a very complicated matter: it needs to unite the three words in the Institute title: Economics, Law, Politics”, said Sergey Nedelko. – “And not just three words, but also those people who do this scientific work. Scientists, if they are good, are people with a certain type of personality. Science is a very unusual field of activity in general. If a factory has established conveyors and produces something, then it produces something of the same type. As for science, uniqueness is important, first of all. The most difficult task in the science organization is to measure the result of scientific activity.

There is a revolutionary rapid development of the scientific and technical spheres in Russia nowadays. Russia is very lucky to have such an institute as RIEPL, which has finally reached “middle age”. Being an international intergovernmental organization, our Institute with the Head of your International Scientific and Technical Cooperation have discovered a dozen interesting topics for scientific work. On behalf of JINR Director Grigory Vladimirovich Trubnikov and all those colleagues we met at our institute, we congratulate RIEPL with its anniversary and housewarming!”, he concluded.
