The very beginning of third working day was marked by an interesting event. There was held a videoconference Russian Scientific Center "Kurchatovskiy Institute". Dr. Alexey Soldatov, Deputy Director od RSC, told about "Nauka-Grid" project.

Dr. Veronika Nefedova who works in Argonne National Laboratory in Chicago, touched upon a same topic.
