The NSCMB FEB RAS and the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology (VAST) have agreed to develop collaboration within the framework of existing memorandums and agreements on cooperation between the two countries as well as to jointly conduct a wide range of regionally and internationally important studies.

From July 7 to August 18, the NSCMB FEB RAS together with the Institute of Deep-Sea Science and Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IDSSE CAS) conducted an scientific cruise on the Chinese research vessel Tan Suo Yi Hao in the areas of the northern and central parts of the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench, as well as in the western part of the Aleutian Trench. The investigations were conducted using the deep-sea manned vehicle “Fendouzhe”. The cruise was led by NSCMB Deputy Director Vladimir Mordukhovich. The expedition involved 10 Russian scientists (representing three scientific organizations: NSCMB FEB RAS, POI FEB RAS and IO RAS), 20 Chinese scientists and 9 Chinese pilots/engineers. During the cruise, 31 dives of a deep-sea manned vehicle were performed at depths from 5,537 m to 9,580 m. For Russian scientists, this was the first experience of working in manned vehicles at such depths. Nine Russian specialists directly participated in the dives, including at depths greater than 9,000 m.

Logo modern maricultureThe A.V. Zhirmunsky National Scientific Center of Marine Biology, Far Eastern Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences (NSCMB FEB RAS), is planning to hold the 4th Mariculture School for Young Scientists “Modern Mariculture: Biological, Biochemical, and Molecular Genetics Approaches at the Vostok marine biological station (MBS Vostok), September 8–11, 2024.

The School is organized within the framework of the Russian Science Foundation project No. 21-74-30004. Scientists younger than 35 (inclusive) are welcomed to the School.

Leading researchers from various scientific organizations in Russia and China will take part at the event as lecturers. A professor from Dalian Ocean University (DOU) was invited as a lecturer, and his colleague from DOU and a representative from the China Association for the Promotion of International Agricultural Cooperation as guests at the event.

The School will consider such modern problems as marine invertebrate cultivation and the use of novel methods for studying biological objects aimed to create a scientific basis for mariculture and improve animal farming technologies.

Accommodation and transfer to the MBS Vostok and back are free of charge. No registration fee is required. The MBS Vostok will provide a dining room during the School period.

The International Cooperation Department of the NSCMB FEB RAS has summed up the results of cooperation with the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology (VAST). As we remember, the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin paid a state visit to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam on June 19–20, 2024. The year of this visit marks the 30th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty on the Basic Principles of Friendly Relations between the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the Russian Federation (of June 16, 1994). In a warm atmosphere, the sides held an in-depth exchange of views on a wide range of topical issues and areas of Russian–Vietnamese relations, including scientific, technological and humanitarian ones.

On June 20–21, 2024, the Soonchunhyang University, Asan, Republic of Korea, hosted an annual conference of the Malacological Society of Korea (MSK) and an anniversary event to celebrate 40 years of the Society

For Russian Far Eastern malacologists, maintaining contacts with the MSK and Korean malacologists is an important part of regional scientific relations.
