Researchers at the Center for Bioelectrical Interfaces at the National Research University Higher School of Economics have developed a new technique that makes it possible to find signs of epileptic activity on an electroencephalogram. This is the most accurate algorithm known today, taking into account various errors and artifacts. Such detailed detection of epileptogenic zones on the cerebral cortex will improve the effectiveness of neurosurgical intervention. The study was published in the Journal of Neural Engineering.

The speaker of the seminar Fuad T. Aleskerov, Professor at the Department of Mathematics & Director of the International Centre of Decision Choice and Analysis, HSE.

Expeditions to the Eastern Arctic and Kara Seas investigated the thermal properties of bottom sediments. Numerous zones of bubbling methane flux were discovered in the shelf of the Laptev Sea and the East Siberian Sea, which researchers believe is affecting climate warming in the Arctic. The study has been published inMarine and Petroleum Geology.

On Wednesday, April 27, the National Research University Higher School of Economics hosted a seminar "Expert opinion and data analysis".

In April, the results of the Research Initiative student project competition were announced at HSE University. Twenty-two team applications were submitted by students of 20 different fields of study at HSE University’s campuses in Moscow, Perm, and Nizhny Novgorod. Based on the results of expert assessment, the competition committee approved 17 interdisciplinary projects to be implemented by December 2022.

Students of the bachelor's program in International Business and Management at the HSE University-St. Petersburg presented the results of the study "The role of the early adopters in the diffusion of blockchain technology: a case study of the large companies in Russia"
