Scientists Create Open Dataset for Studying Concentration
A team of Russian researchers, including scientists from HSE University–St Petersburg, has developed the first open multimodal dataset containing recordings of brain activity, heart function, and video observations to help researchers understand what happens in the human brain during deep concentration. In the future, the dataset could accelerate the development of neural interfaces, rehabilitation technologies, and AI systems. The article has been published in Scientific Data.

‘Science Is Universal-It Knows No Borders
Fuad Aleskerov, Tenured Professor and Director of the International Centre of Decision Choice and Analysis at HSE University, together with his colleagues, has developed methods of network analysis in bibliometrics that have made it possible to identify patterns in the appearance and citation of publications in academic journals, as well as their influence on each other. When one or a number of studies are frequently cited by a wide range of journals, this is an indicator that the research is of high quality. By contrast, extensive cross-citation within a limited group of journals increases the likelihood of identifying a network of predatory publications.

Human Rights and the Exceptionalism of Russian Law and Politics

P. 99–112.
Antonov M.

This chapter examines the role of human rights as the reference point for concrete-order thinking in Russia’s legal order and the political implications of changes in conceptualization of human rights over the last few decades. This change has had an evident impact on Russian law and on its interplay with the West and its institutions. The chapter singles out three different readings of human rights in Russian law and politics, from initial enthusiasm about Russia joining Western civilization and its unreserved acceptance of human rights in the 1993 Constitution, to a critical revision of the conception of human rights in the 2000s, and finally to its instrumentalization as one of the pillars for Russian exceptionalism and anti-globalist geopolitical strategy in the 2020s.

Not whether sports law is an area worthy of study, nor that sports lawyers provide services to and resolve disputes for the sports industry; no, the norm is to ask whether sports law exists at all. This existentialist ...
