On Necessary Changes in Science Management

Starting in 2022 and obviously for a long run, the conditions for the development of Russian science have drastically changed, but the science management system, formed in 2012–2013 in other circumstances, remains the same, not adapted to new challenges and realities. Both the management and scientific communities need to realize that a systematic review of contemporary challenges and threats, current goals and objectives, effective mechanisms and tools for science management is required. The fragmentary changes in the Strategy for Scientific and Technological Development of the Russian Federation, made in February 2024, only slightly reflect the gamut of problems in the development of Russian science in the current historical conditions.
