Two gold medals and one silver medal were awarded to NUST MISIS researchers at the 28th Moscow International Salon of Inventions and Innovative Technologies, Archimedes-2025. This year’s exhibition featured over 500 inventions and innovative projects from 235 organizations across 35 regions of Russia and 26 countries.
Russian scientists have developed an innovative approach to studying the structure of composite materials that changes under external influence in real time. This methodology provides important data from miniature samples, which can now be tested in a scanning electron microscope chamber. The results obtained are used for reliable strength calculations, which will save costs in the production and testing of automotive and aerospace components.
The Moscow International Congress of Mineral Processors brought together more than 300 participants from Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, China, India, Vietnam, Bulgaria, Serbia, Myanmar, Australia, Angola, Zimbabwe, and Sierra Leone. Experts discussed mineral beneficiation and developed proposals for further effective collaboration.
NUST MISIS has improved its standings in the QS-2025 rankings, making it into five subject-specific and two broad-field lists. The university has retained its position as Russia’s No. 1 institution in materials science and ranked among the top three in mining engineering. Overall, experts evaluated and ranked more than 1,700 universities worldwide.
In Russia, a super-fast integrated optical detector has been presented that can be adapted for various tasks — from telecommunications and thermal imagers to medical biosensors, security systems, and astronomical instruments. The device detects weak infrared signals in an integrated-optical chip 100 million times faster than its analogues and updates data more than one billion times per second, making it one of the fastest in its class.
NUST MISIS participated in the IV International Youth Forum "Russia-Africa: Nuclear Education — Potential for Successful Regional Development. At the RUDN University’s venue, leading experts from Russia, Mali, Namibia, and Tanzania discussed the results of research and the implementation of atomic technologies in the fields of energy, medicine, agronomy, and ecology. Representatives from leading partner universities of the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom moderated the sessions. This year, for the first time, works were presented in a new section — “Geology and Mining”, featuring speakers from the University.
NUST MISIS scientists showcased the results of their cutting-edge research at III Future Technologies Forum. The event brought together 1,800 participants from 19 countries. University experts, along with representatives of business and government, discussed the technological and scientific priorities of the industry, investments in ongoing projects, workforce training, and more. Leading Russian corporations, high-tech businesses, and research organizations presented their latest technological advancements at the exhibition.
Researchers at NUST MISIS have created equivalent models of tumor tissue using 3D bioprinting. They also established for the first time the influence of tumor model design on tissue formation. This development will be useful for testing the efficacy of new drugs and therapeutic strategies.
Researchers at NUST MISIS have developed a dental membrane with an antibacterial coating, which has the potential to restore jaw bone tissue. The product is created using a 3D printer, personalized to the specific damage of patients. After the polymer framework is implanted at the injury site, the necessary tissues grow on it, and the structure safely dissolves after a few months. The chosen polymer does not cause acidification of the defect area, which can slow down or even halt the regeneration process. Unlike existing non-resorbable analogs, the biodegradable membrane does not require a second surgical intervention for removal.
The in situ bioprinter is now available for order on NASHA LABA, an online platform dedicated to sourcing and selecting domestically produced scientific equipment. This cutting-edge device was used in the world’s first-ever bioprinting surgery on a human.
NUST MISIS secured 12th place in the Digital Economy University Ranking, compiled by the autonomous non-profit organization Digital Economy with support from the Association of Computer and IT Enterprises. The study assessed 304 Russian universities across 69 IT-related specializations.
The ranking agency Times Higher Education has published a list of the best universities in the world across various subject areas. In 2025, NUST MISIS entered the list of leading universities in computer science for the first time. It ranked in the top 28% of universities worldwide in physical sciences and the top 41% in engineering. The ranking was based on five criteria: teaching, research environment, research quality, industry, and international outlook.
NUST MISIS, at the invitation of the Consulate General of the Russian Federation, participated in the Education & Careers Expo 2025 in Hong Kong, where it presented information about educational programs and opportunities for studying in Russia for foreign citizens.
Scientists at the MISIS University have patented a composite biocompatible microelectrode that can be used for electrical stimulation of nerve tissue. It is applicable in locating epilepsy foci in the brain and stimulating peripheral nerves to alleviate phantom pain. It will also be useful in studying spinal cord tissue regeneration.
Researchers at the NUST MISIS have enhanced the processing method for a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy used in hip joint implants, pins, plates, and other biomedical products. This approach improves the material’s strength characteristics while maintaining a stable level of plasticity.
Scientists from NUST MISIS and JSC “NIIEFA” have demonstrated how to produce a bimetallic material using hybrid additive manufacturing. Composites made of tungsten and copper with enhanced properties are used for plasma-facing components (PFCs) in nuclear fusion reactors. Research has shown that the thermophysical and mechanical characteristics of the tungsten-copper composite are comparable to those made using traditional methods. However, hybrid additive technologies can achieve more efficient heat dissipation and increase thermal cycling resources due to the proposed design of the tungsten-copper composite.
At the “Russian Universities—The Best Choice” educational fair in Vietnam, NUST MISIS reached cooperation agreements with three universities.
