JINR’s Scientific PolicyThe scientific policy of JINR will be realized in view of global scientific trends.
In its activity, JINR will continue to keep to the concept of its development which was adopted at the 73rd session of the Scientific Council and approved by the Committee of Plenipotentiaries in 1993.
– basic research in frontier particle, nuclear and condensed matter physics
– development and application of high technologies
– university education in the relevant fields of knowledge.

FUNDAMENTAL SCIENCE
The fundamental studies remain the primary direction of JINR’s development
The research programme is aimed at addressing key issues of natural sciences, including● verification of the Standard Model• search for new physics phenomena • synthesis of new elements and studies of nuclides close to nucleon stability • investigations in the physics of surfaces• studies of strongly correlated electron systems and of nanomaterials• … These investigations will be combined with an effective theoretical and softwaresupport of experiments.

Review of the research programme: setting of priorities
Given the financial situation at JINR, the Directorate invites the PACs to review, once again, the JINR research programme with a view to reducing the number of insignificant, minor projects, including some first-priority themes. The preliminary work in this direction will be done by the JINR internal scientific bodies. This will allow:to concentrate the available financial resources for implementing really ambitious and highly important projects in the main scientific directions
to produce major scientific and technological output

November 2004
PAC for PP PAC for NP PAC for CMP
The JINR Directorate suggested that the PACs consider a practice of approving new projects
proposed by the authors for first priority only for a term of one year.
The PACs concurs with the Institute Directorate that first-priority status should be set for research activities for one year only, pending a future review of the whole of the Institute activities.

Review of the research programme: setting of priorities
In the future, from the economic point of view, we should have separate approaches to the scientific, fundamental research projects and to the applied ones. It would be reasonable to support the applied projects only during the starting periods of their implementation.
20.01.2005 97th session of JINR SC 16
to live within available resources!
to concentrate the available financial resources for implementing really ambitious and highly important projects in the main scientific directions
to reduce the number of insignificant, minor projects, including some first-priority themes
to increase the number of young scientists and specialists from all Member States
to intensively develop JINR’s “innovation belt” as one of the strategic development directions
CONCLUSION
On 3 November 2004 the JINR Science and Technology Council approved the main approaches of the proposed
scientific policy as presented by A. Sissakian
