Biologists Discover 'Molecular Fingerprint' of Preeclampsia
Researchers at HSE University employed a new method to model hypoxia in placental cells during pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and identified molecular markers of tissue hypoxia. Since hypoxia is one of the key mechanisms underlying preeclampsia, these findings are important for a more accurate and timely diagnosis of the disease and for the development of effective treatment methods. The paper has been published in Placenta.

‘Speech, Facial Expressions, and Gestures Cannot Lie
Would you like to know whether a speaker’s trembling voice or an accidental gesture can give them away? At HSE University in Nizhny Novgorod, researchers are developing an algorithm that analyses speech, facial expressions, and gestures, and determines whether information is truthful with 92% accuracy. The project has applications ranging from forensic examination and bank recruitment to fundamental research. Anna Khomenko, head of the research group and Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Language and Brain at the HSE Faculty of Humanities in Nizhny Novgorod, explains how students and researchers are working together to create a corpus of video recordings, train a classifier, and prepare to introduce computer vision technology.

Allies, Partners, and Rivals: A Three-Dimensional Classification of Military-Political Alignments
Maltsev A., Russia in Global Affairs 2026 Vol. 24 No. 2 P. 102–127
Contemporary IR theory lacks a unified and complete taxonomy of interstate military-political relationships. The conceptual diversity of overlapping, often interchangeable terms (alliance, alignment, coalition, entente, strategic partnership) generates false dichotomies and a gap between fundamental alliance theories and applied studies of defense cooperation practices. This article proposes a three-dimensional classification of military alignments. Each state ...

Между кризисами и реформами
Sokolshchik L., Известия 2021
Громкие обещания Джо Байдена о преодолении текущего кризиса на практике столкнулись с вызовом пандемии, а также турбулентностью международной и внутренней политики.

В подобных условиях успешное осуществление заявленного плана масштабных преобразований зависит ...

В этом плане приход к власти Д. Трампа, опиравшегося в немалой степени на правопопулистскую концепцию борьбы народа и элиты, и рост политической поляризации стали особенно симптоматичными. Ряд экспертов даже говорят о текущем кризисе ...
