Round table summary. In January 2019, the Faculty of Philosophy of the Lomonosov Moscow State University held the round table “Problems of Consciousness: Research Opportunities.” It was dedicated to problems of interdisciplinary studies of consciousness. Many famous Russian specialists whose academic interests include consciousness, brain and mind took part in this event: K.V. Anokhin, D.I. Dubrovsky, T.V. Chernigovskaya, M.A. Piradov, A.A. Potapov, V.Y. Sergin, V.V. Vasil’ev, Z.A. Zorina and others. At the round table, the following problems were discussed: the specificity of consciousness problem, its relevance in various academic disciplines, contemporary research possibilities for consciousness studies to solve the problems that specialists actually face. Much attention was paid to the problems of neurobiology, empirical research of consciousness. Nonetheless, participants showed in their speeches that the problem of consciousness is also a philosophical problem. Hence, it requires thoughtful consideration of philosophers. Participants decided that for progress in solving this problem researchers from various (not only natural) disciplines have to cooperate.

The objective of this project, implemented at the Faculty of Public Administration of the Lomonosov Moscow State University, is interdisciplinary studies of family behaviour strategies of young people in terms of the ‘Demography’ National Project (2019—2024) and those of challenges associated with the socio-economic development of the country. The following objectives were set and achieved: the main strategies of students’ family behaviour were identified; monitoring of changes in the students’ current strategies by contrast of the similar studies carried out in 2008 was conducted; the factors which impact the formation of marital and family attitudes depending on the educational profile and the university were identified; the analysis of the state family and youth policy from the perspective of its perception by students was carried out; recommendations and proposals to adjust the state social policy as part of projects and programs on demography, family and youth policy, as well as those on their monitoring and evaluation were developed. The project outcomes were provided in the reports during national and international conferences and discussed at the round table organized by the Faculty of Public Administration of the Lomonosov Moscow State University and were covered in the publications of 2019—2020. The project highlighted the need for continuous monitoring of changes in the youth milieu with respect to family strategies, in order to quickly realign the state priorities while implementing the national projects of Russia.

Selected materials of a virtual round-table session devoted to reminiscences about Sergey G. Bocharov (1929-2017) and discussion of his academic interests and achievements. B. Egorov remembers meeting and keeping in touch with Bocharov, as well as new friends he made through him. Y. Mann elaborates on the ideological challenges to Soviet philology and on the role played by Bakhtin, Gogol, and Platonov in forming Bocharov’s own personality. D. Urnov reflects on the nature of Bocharov’s philological talent and the time when they both worked at the Department of Literary Theory in IMLI (Institute of the World Literature). L. Szilard reminisces about her student days at the Moscow State University and her friendship with Sergey and Irina Bocharov, which had lasted a lifetime from the 1950s. E. Dmitrieva considers the subject of Gogol as developed in Bocharov’s articles, and on the latter’s work to produce a complete collection of Gogol’s writings. V. Kotelnikov brings up the topic of K. Leontiev as perceived by Bocharov. P. Glushakov chooses to revisit Bocharov’s main ideas – for example, his concept of genetic memory of literature – and illustrates it with an extensive discussion of the duel, gunshot, and revenge in works by Pushkin, Lermontov, Chekhov, and Shukshin.

The 2nd International IUPAC Conference on Green Chemistry (ICGC-2) was held 14-20 September 2008 aboard the ship "Alexander Radishev" traveling from Moscow to St. Petersburg, Russia. The conference was organized by the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Russian Foundation of Basic Research, the Russian Ministry of Education and Science, and M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University. The opening ceremony was held in the aula of the new Intellectual Center, Fundamental Library of Moscow State University.The scientific program was centered around a number of fundamental and applied topics such as- environmentally safe reagents and synthesis routes,- heterogeneous catalysis,- homogeneous and enzyme catalysis,- prospective environmentally safe energy sources,- use of renewables in the chemical processes,- environmentally safe technologies of chemical products, and- education in the field of green chemistryThe conference program included 7 plenary lectures, 10 keynote lectures, 37 oral contributions, and 120 poster presentations. Two round-table discussions were also organized. The first was organized by Prof. Hemda Garelick (Middlesex University, London) and examined the environmental context for "green chemistry" and addressed its relationship with the subject area of "environmental chemistry". The second was organized by Prof. Valery Lunin (Chemistry Department of M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow) and was devoted to the discussion of the theoretical and practical aspects of the use of supercritical fluids in chemistry and technology.The conference attracted over 360 participants from 39 countries and 4 continents. IUPAC's green chemistry activities were presented by Prof. P. Tundo, President of IUPAC's Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry Division (INCA and Ca' Foscari University of Venice) and Prof. B. Han, Chair of the IUPAC Subcommittee on Green Chemistry. The plenary and keynote lectures with the choice of oral contributions published in this issue of Pure and Applied Chemistry cover each topic of the conference.We look forward to the 3rd International Conference on Green Chemistry to be held in August 2010 in Canada.Edward KarakhanovConference Editor

This Round Table is dedicated to the memory of the outstanding Russian linguist, philosopher, and cultural scientist G.P. Melnikov. Gennady Prokopevich is a creator of the system-typological concept of language. Before becoming a teacher in the Department of General and Russian Linguistics at the Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia, Melnikov worked at the Pedagogical Institute named after Lenin and the Laboratory of Computational Linguistics of Moscow State University. The field of his research encompassed a variety of sciences and scientific fields, which are based on logic: physics, mathematics, information theory, cybernetics, semiotics, general linguistics, Turkology, Slavonic studies, etc. Melnikov’s contribution in the national philology can not be overestimated. Thanks to his students, such areas as quantitative linguistics, cognitive science, the theory of artistic bilingualism, communication and many others are being actively developed.
