A special screening of the documentary film "Russia – Laboratory of Peace" was held at PSU in honor of Russian Science Day.

Educational screenings of popular science films are one of the key initiatives of the "Decade of Science and Technology." Its main goal is to present complex research in a simple and engaging way and demonstrate how science changes our lives.

Produced with the support of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, the film "Russia – Laboratory of Peace" is dedicated to Russian scientists who have returned home after working abroad, as well as to foreign researchers who have chosen Russia as the location for their scientific and professional work.

The screening evoked a lively response and a sense of pride in the scientists' contribution to Russia's technological leadership and independence.

Such film screenings not only broaden horizons but also promote scientific careers among young people, showcasing Russia as a country open to global talent and ambitious projects.
