On 20–24 July, the international collaboration discussed the progress of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory and plans regarding the project. At the event, the Institute’s representatives delivered talks on monitoring and control system development.

At the 30th Summer Scientific School, young scientists and specialists of JINR, as well as Russian universities and research centres, attended a variety of activities including lectures, a roundtable discussion with the Institute’s Directorate, networking events, and sports master classes. The school was organized by AYSS JINR.

As part of the internship, biophotonics students worked at two JINR laboratories. At LRB, the participants studied modern experimental radiobiology methods and the fundamental concepts of radiation physiology and medicine. The second track, held at DLNP, focused on diffusion optics methodology in the time domain.

The participants of this year’s START programme come from Belarus, China, Cuba, Egypt, India, Kazakhstan, Russia, South Africa, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam. The first group is already working on their projects at the Institute’s laboratories.

The event will take place on 4–6 September, at the Volga Recreation Centre. Official registration is yet to open, but if you plan to join JINR’s team to compete for the Nuclear Cup, please fill out the Google form until 22 August.

Until 31 August, young scientists from the Asia-Pacific region are invited to apply for the 2027 AONSA fellowship programme. The participants will engage in studies at major neutron facilities, including the IBR-2 Research Reactor.

From 28 October to 2 November, as part of the Formula of Harmony. Season 6 project, Mir Cultural Centre will host eight concerts by Vladimir Spivakov and the Moscow Virtuosi orchestra. Tickets are available on the website, at the Mir Centre ticket office, and by +7 (496) 216-44-44.

A workshop is taking place for teenagers to explore Dubna’s visual identity, talk to locals, and study how life in the science city influences our perception of it. On 8 August, the participants will present a theatre performance based on the results of their work at the Blokhintsev Library.

In the video filmed as part of The Faces of Science project, VBLHEP JINR senior researcher discussed accelerator physics and his work in Dubna. Portraits of Mikhail and other participants are displayed at an exhibition in Sokolniki Park, Moscow, open until 16 August.

The sixth stage of the Onego Swimcup 2026 took place on Lake Onega. JINR Archimedes Swimming Pool coach Maria Alikina took second place overall in the 1000 m race; in addition, she and Alexey Butorin came fourth in the relay. Congratulations!

For the first time, Dubna hosted a night track and field race, with many JINR employees among the participants. VBLHEP economist Alexandra Vysotskaya took 2nd place in the 10 km event. Congratulations to the athletes!

The competition took place on 1–2 August in memory of outstanding physicists Venedikt and Boris Dzhelepov. This year, the event brought together a record number of participants. Congratulations on the successful performances!
