As part of a state program, 20 new medical research centers will be opened over the next 10 years, the Industry and Trade Ministry said Saturday.
“Under the program, we are planning to create about 10 research centers for development of new medicinal preparations and about seven for development of medical equipment,” Deputy Minister Denis Manturov said. “We are also planning to train and retrain about 5,000 specialists in various areas who will be employed in our pharmaceutical industry.”

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
