On 1 January, the Republic of Cuba, a JINR Member State, celebrates the main national holiday – Liberation Day.

As a JINR Member State since 1976, the Republic of Cuba has been successfully developing cooperation with JINR in different directions. Cuban scientists are involved in several research programmes of the Institute including the development of new semiconductor detectors for fundamental and applied research, the physics programme of the SPD and MPD detectors in the frames of the NICA megascience project, and the modernisation of the LINAC-200 linear electron accelerator.

The Institute’s Directorate congratulates Cuban colleagues and partners on Liberation Day and wishes them and their families good health, happiness, well-being, luck, and new professional successes for the benefit of science and progress!
