of maximizing the efficiency

complex liquid solutions ions of rare (indium,
scandium), rare earth (lanthanum, cerium,
neodymium, praseodymium, samarium, eu-

bium, ytterbium, holmium, lutetium and thulium),
precious metals (gold), and caesium radionu-
clides. The process is essentially as follows: at
first the material absorbs the metal ions which
then are transformed to the salts cleaned from
impurities and then reduced to the free metal.
The idea of this technology was suggested by
the founder of Axion-RNM Dmitry Kondrutsky
when he was still writing his PhD paper and ini-
tially did not go beyond the limits of theoretical sci-
ence. Then it was decided to implement the
solution in real economy. In December 2011,
Axion-RNM received a RUB 29 mln grant from the

companies which enables it to quickly adopt and
use the latest industry developments. This tactics
works successful: the company is at the forefront

SpaceX, Virgin Galactic and XCOR Aerospace.
It has signed a USD 200 mln contract with Aniara
Communications (India) for the production of two
geostationary satellites.
In the long term, Dauria Aerospace plans to
shift its focus from the production of satellites
to the provision of a variety of services that will
be provided on their basis. With the current
number of equipment available in the orbit, the
Earth's surface can be shot from any selected
point only once a day.
Among Dauria Aerospace's plans is to create
its own constellation of satellites to be able to
substantially increase the frequency of moni-
toring, for instance, to conduct it every two
hours. The data will be uploaded to an Internet
cloud platform from where it can be down-

are at the fifth dose level and have only

In addition, Incuron has obtained many
promising preclinical data on the application of
CBL0137 in combination with known antitu-

cancer that occurs in infants and young chil-

In addition, the world's largest pharmaceu-

of conservatism – core technologies
were developed as far back
as 30-40 years ago. Along with that,
every rule has its exceptions.
One of them is the work of the
specialists from a Skolkovo resident
company – RRT, who managed
to pass the way from an idea

of the technology.
RT company made a breakthrough in the
R technology of receiving components of

Euro-5 gasoline. The essence of the in-
novation which was called PRIS is in placing
the isomerization unit, hydroisomerization unit
and the gas-processing system in one device.
RRT technology is developing a technology of
receiving high-octane gasoline from low-oc-
tane fractions by isomerization. An isomer is a
chemical compound with the same molecular
composition as that of the original but with dif-
fering properties. For example, with a different
octane number. The difference is achieved, as
a rule, by changing the atomic positions.
Demand for this technology is provided by
constant toughening of requirements to the en-
vironmental friendliness of cars and, conse-
quently, to gasoline. Currently an environmental
standard Euro-5 adopted in 2009 is in force in
Europe. The United States are gradually moving
towards MSAT 2 standard, which is even more
stringent. India is preparing to switch to Euro-4
by 2017.

ne of the most effective ways to in-
O crease their bandwidth is Dense

Wavelength Division Multiplexing,
DWDM, which allows to transmit several inde-
pendent channels in parallel within a single
pair of fibres. The key advantage of this tech-
nology is the ability to boost speed in already
existing fibre-optic lines, thus relieving the op-
erators from unnecessary upgrade costs. In
addition, it is important to note that the transfer
of a high-speed signal through DWDM-sys-
tems over large distances occurs without the
use of intermediate amplifiers — this allows to
develop the network in the sparsely populated
and remote areas.

Disadvantages of chemotherapy in cancer treatment are widely known.

In fact, it is a "carpet bombing" method in which not only sick cells but
healthy ones are affected as well. In contrast, a new class of anti-tumour
drugs, monoclonal antibodies, attack the protein molecules in tumour

to cure some serious autoimmune diseases

chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and rheuma-

The volume of the pressure sensors market is extremely big. They are used in the
petrochemical industry, nuclear industry, power generation, medicine, aviation and
in many other spheres. Currently there is no batch production in the world of high
sensitivity pressure sensors designed to operate in extremely harsh conditions.
For example, sensors that can operate at -182°C are required for space exploration
and those operating at +350°C are needed in petrochemical industry.

gets the impression that the image is applied
directly onto the road.
With the help of the WayRay system the
driver can receive up-to-date information about
the traffic situation and quickly optimize his

about the location and direction of the route is

The WayRay system is capable of augment-

on the user profile, it loads the information that

begins to show information about nearby build-
