On March 20, two scientists from the Frank Laboratory of Neutron Physics, S.A. Kurakin and V.V. Sadilov, received academic degrees of Candidates of Physical and Mathematical Sciences

The graduation ceremony took place in the Great Hall of the JINR Conference Centre. The defenses were held at the permanent Dissertation Council on Condensed Matter Physics at FLNP. Deep gratitude to the scientific leaders, Norbert Kučerka and Viktor I. Bodnarchuk, for their invaluable guidance in cultivating new and promising researchers. We congratulate Sergey and Valentin on their achievements and wish them every success in their future endeavors.
