The message reads, in part:
“The Nuclear Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences was established at the initiative of outstanding Soviet scientists who determined the key areas of its work, built a unique research and experimental base, and established remarkable traditions of selfless workfor the glory of our Fatherland.
Today the institute, with its strong team of talented and highly qualified experts, is rightly considered one of the leading world centres of fundamental and applied research in nuclear physics. It is important that you carefully preserve and develop the extraordinary creative legacy of your predecessors, keep the professionalism bar high, focus on large-scale international projects and training gifted youth.”
