Роль научных школ выдающихся учёных в формировании и развитии академических институтов Сибири

Abstract

As the first regional branch of the USSR Academy of Sciences has been established in Siberia in 1957, a new stage of scientific exploration of the region began. For the first time, research has become systematic rather than isolated. The efforts of prominent scientists yielded fundamental results. The scientific heritage of the founders of scientific schools and institutions of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences is a relevant and important asset of modern culture, which requires comprehensive study and development. The paper presents the key approaches to the study of scientific heritage of distinguished scholars. The study subject is scientific schools as a framework for the establishment and development of academic institutions in Siberia; their history reflects the crucial milestones in the evolution of fundamental knowledge and scientific exploration of the region.
