Resource Race and Green Transition: Three Unexpected Conclusions from Foresight Centres Research on Climate and Poverty
Beneath the surface of green energy—which most people associate with solar panels, electric vehicles, and reduced CO2 emissions—lies a complex web of geopolitical interests, international inequality, and resource constraints. Researchers from the Laboratory for Science and Technology Studies (LST) at the HSE ISSEK Foresight Centre have published a series of articles in leading international journals on hidden and overt conflicts surrounding critically important metals and minerals, as well as related processes in the energy sector.

Immersion in Second Language Environment Influences Bilinguals Perception of Emotions
Researchers at the Cognitive Health and Intelligence Centre at the HSE Institute for Cognitive Neuroscience have discovered how bilingual individuals process emotional words in their native (first) and non-native (second) languages. It was found that the link between word meaning and bodily sensations is weaker in a second language than in a first language. However, the more a person is immersed in a language environment, the smaller this difference becomes. The article has been published in Language, Cognition and Neuroscience.

Non-epicurean desires more

Filosofia Unisinos. 2016. Vol. 17. No. 1. P. 63–68.
Schang F.

In this paper, it is argued that there can be necessary and non-natural desires. After a discus-sion about what seems wrong with such desires, Epicurus’ classification of desires is treated similarly to Kripke’s treatment of the Kantian table of judgments. A sample of three cases is suggested to make this point.

Quantifying possible routes for SpnF-catalyzed formal Diels-Alder cycloaddition
Svitanko I., Medvedev M., Zeifman A. et al., Journal of the american chemical society 2017 Vol. 139 No. 11 P. 3942–3945
The Diels-Alder reaction is a cornerstone of modern organic synthesis. Despite this, it remains essentially inaccessible to biosynthetic approaches. Only a few natural enzymes catalyze even a formal [4+2] cycloaddition, and it remains uncertain if any of them proceed via the Diels-Alder mechanism. In this study, we focus on the [4+2] cycloaddition step in the ...
