On September 13, 2024, the IDLab laboratory held an online seminar titled "Building an Academic Career," which gathered around 30 participants. In addition to the laboratory staff, external listeners joined the seminar, and the online format allowed attendees not only from Perm but also from other cities, including Moscow.

From July 28 to August 9, 2024, as part of the Student Expeditions Program of the Educational Initiatives Foundation of the HSE University “Rediscovering Russia”, the staff of the International Laboratory for Population and Health organized an expedition in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug - Yugra, dedicated to the study of fertility and reproductive intentions. The expedition heads - Alexey Shchur and Vera Sokolova with a team of 10 students, including postgraduate demographers, students of the master's program “Demography”, bachelor's programs “Sociology”, “Geography of Global Change and Geoinformation Technologies”, visited Khanty-Mansiysk, Surgut, Kogalym, as well as the Russkinskaya village of Surgut district.
The purpose of the expedition was to study what factors (socio-economic, infrastructural, personal) determine the gap between the wanted number of children and the actual (expected) one, and to how much regional measures to support families influence reproductive decision-making. During the expedition, more than 900 respondents were interviewed and expert meetings were held with relevant departments and organizations that develop and implement demographic policy in the region.

From August 1 to August 12 the student expedition of the project “Rediscovering Russia” took place under the guidance of the head of the international laboratory of landscape ecology Robert Sandlersky and researcher Marina Tsydypova. Students of the Faculty of Geography and Geoinformation Technologies conducted research work in the territory of the Tunka National Park in order to map the objects of its infrastructure, as well as accounting and sociological surveys of recreationists within the framework of the park's preparation of a recreational activity plan.
