ROLE OF MEGASCIENCE PROJECTS IN PROMOTING  RUSSIAN TECHNICAL UNIVERSITIES AND RESEARCH CENTERS IN GLOBAL EDUCATION AND RESEARCH AREA
 SESSION, OCTOBER 03

Research Infrastructures are one of the most efficient tools to facilitate international cooperation in science, technology and education.
They offer high quality services to Users from different countries, engaging young people, attracting new Users and preparing the next generation of researchers.
On the other hand, as scientific research facilities become larger, more complex, and require more resources the joint effective construction and operation of Research Infrastructures has become a key priority and needs greater coordination and collaboration on a global scale.
Innovative research in nearly all scientific fields today requires complex facilities and cutting-edge technologies. Efficient Mega science facilities enable the greatest discoveries in science and technology, attract researchers from around the world and build bridges between research communities. They allow the training of researchers and facilitate innovation and knowledge sharing.

For many years, a number of Russian Universities and research organizations has been involved in different international endeavours dealing with Mega science projects hosted by CERN.
Participation of Universities in these projects at the early stages of design and construction of facilities, preparation of experiments, allows them to demonstrate a high level of competence and competitive advantages.
The main objective of this session is to discuss how Russian technical Universities for materials science can contribute to Mega science projects at the design and construction stages and why their participation is more than welcome.
The session will provide a floor for open exchange of views on Mega science  projects of mutual interest to countries, sharing  best practice in planning, construction, implementation and operation of large-scale research infrastructures in order to identify new principles and instruments for further effective global collaboration.
Organiser: the National contact point for Research Infrastructures of Horizon 2020 in Russia
