The main tasks that face the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU) have been under discussion during a recent meeting of the NASU Presidium. In particular, its members considered all-round development of fundamental research in view of groundbreaking trends of science.
According to participants in the discussion, the extension of financing of special-purpose research programs and contests, as well as a substantial increase in allocations beyond state budget to improve promotion, material and technical supplies should serve as a basis for the above development.
Vladimir Maslov, head of the department of physicotechnological fundamentals of sensory materials science at the V. Lashkareov Institute of Semiconductor Physics, proposes to make use of the experience of Ukrainian scientists in order to turn around existent technological processes, both new and old ones, at industrial enterprises. He thinks encouragement provided by Ukraine’s legal rules for investors must provide an incentive to enlisting researchers to do this work.
