Published Papers from Gaidar Institute for Economic Policy

Abstract: In 2024, active lawmaking activities were carried out in the science and technology (S&T) studies, a set of long-term documents was adopted, including the Strategy for Scientific and Technological Development of the Russian Federation, and a list of priority areas and key knowledge-intensive technologies was approved. Changes were introduced in the system of S&T development governance, including the assignment of new functions to the Russian Academy of Sciences concerning expertise, information support of research and training of highly qualified personnel. In accordance with the new goals and objectives, the structure of budget financing of research and development was changed, and the emphasis on support for young scholars was strengthened. This took place against the background of issues caused by sanction restrictions and their consequences, such as “brain drain†and reduction of international cooperation with traditional academic partners.
