We provide advice on clinical and sports nutrition.

We are engaged in exploratory and targeted research of the atmosphere in its entire vertical range. Scientific activities are developed mainly in the directions of boundary layer atmospheric physics, mesosynoptic and applied meteorology, climatology, aeronomy, upper atmosphere physics and ionospheric and magnetospheric physics.

Research and development in agricultural machinery, technology, energy and construction. Carrying out inspection of the technical condition of milking equipment, operational noise and dust measurement, consulting on the design of dairy cow stalls. Focus also on design and assessment of biofuel production, consulting for biogas plants.

We carry out research in elementary particle physics, condensed matter systems, solids, optics and plasma. We carry out research work in the field of elementary particles in the framework of large international collaborations. We are involved in astroparticle physics. We work on the interaction of laser radiation with matter.
