Most of the activities and new ideas are carried out by young people. For example, joint RFBR-JINR JINR grant competition - completely an idea and initiative of young people. Among the leaders of the Laboratories there are no indifferent persons to it who are responsible for youth issues. One of the progress indicators: the average age of employees - was stabilized during last two years.
