/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "We cooperate with different countries. Beginning
January 2010, we'll operate 3 joint labs in cooperation with French
Academy of Sciences, which will enable us to conduct research in
the sphere of physics, geology and archaeology. Within the frames of
bilateral cooperation, 10 Armenian scientific projects will receive
grants in the amount of ~@ 70 thousand," RA NAS President Radik
Martirosyan told a press conference in Yerevan.
"Expenses on each scholar in Armenia make up ~@ 30 thousand, including
salary, expenses for research etc., whereas in European countries
that sum comprises ~@ 130 thousand," Radik Martirosyan said.
At that he noted that science development strategy, as well as other
similar documents bore declarative character. "Under the strategy,
our scientific-research system should be brought in compliance
with European standards by 2020. That implies increasing Academy's
budget by 2% by making GDP allocations (10 times increase). We just
have to hope that political-economic situation and relations with
neighbors will establish grounds for the development of science,"
NAS President stressed.
