We offer to your attention a lecture “Journey to microcosm with theoretical physicist” by Director of the Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics of JINR Dmitry Kazakov published on the YouTube channel of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT). Over 1.2 million viewers have watched the lecture.

The Director of BLTP JINR speaks about the way the world works, the main laws governing the micro and macro worlds, the Standard Model of Fundamental Interactions, and where dark matter is buried. Unsolved mysteries of the universe are challenges to new generations of researchers.

Dmitry Kazakov delivered his lecture as a part of the MIPT educational course as JINR and MIPT are actively developing their cooperation, new directions of which have been discussed during the recent visit of MIPT Rector Dmitry Livanov to JINR.
