HSE Researchers Show How Congenital Motor Disorders Affect Brain Development
Researchers from HSE University’s Institute for Cognitive Neuroscience have synthesised the findings of their previous studies on brain development in children with obstetric brachial plexus palsy and arthrogryposis. Their analysis shows that impaired motor function in early childhood not only limits children’s motor experience but also affects memory, categorical thinking, and information processing. The study has been published in Frontiers in Psychology.

Window into the Body: Scientists Develop Neural Network to Detect Risk of 15 Diseases from Retinal Images
Russian universities, with the participation of HSE University, Sber, and Z-union, have developed a neural network that can simultaneously assess the risk of 15 types of pathology from retinal photographs, including not only eye diseases but also cardiovascular conditions. The AI system can help clinicians detect potentially concerning changes at an early stage, identify signs reflecting the condition of retinal blood vessels, and determine whether a patient may need further examination. The paper has been published in Frontiers in Medicine.

La bureaucratie rationnelle et la crise de la culture

Revue philosophique de la France et de l'étranger. 2013. Vol. CCIII. No. 138. P. 203–214.
Porus V. N.

Pour Max Weber la «bureaucratie rationnelle» est un type ideal d'organisation de la societe. Mais ce type ideal ne permet pas de combler le hiatus entre pouvoir et societe, Iequel s'appelle alienation. C'est un mythe, et si Max Weber parle de rationalite, ce n'est pas en vertu d'une exigence scientifique mais par reference a une axiologie culturelle. On peut done le critiquer en analysant le comportement concret des bureaucrates — Iequel est souvent fort peu rationnel — mais egalement en mettant en question une culture qui se veut ou se pretend rationaliste. En Russie, la monstruosite de la bureaucratie est la consequence d'une crise de la culture.

Nomos e poikilía dell'Essere. Genesi metafisica del molteplice. Una deduzione schellinghiana
Dezi A., Sesto San Giovanni: Mimesis, 2026.
This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...
