Chinaeva, leading researcher Centre for Science Research and Statistics (CSRS), Federal Institution «Research Institute – Federal Research Center for Project Evaluation and Consulting Services» (SRI FRCEC), Ministry of education and science, Russian Federation International Conference “Scientific and Technological Innovation: National Experience and International Cooperation” 29-31 May, 2013 ICSTI Headquarters

2. Main problems determining the condition of R&D human resources 1.Reduction in R&D personnel 2.Decline of its quality 3.Widespread secondary employment 4.Decreased inflow of higher education graduates 5.Outflow of young personnel 6.Ageing of R&D personnel 7.Decline of the prestige of research activities 8.Break in the succession of generations 1

3. Stages of reduction in R&D personnel PeriodMain characteristics of the stages 1991 – 19981.Drastic and implacable reduction in the number of R&D personnel (2-fold) 2.Secondary employment 3.Brain drain 1999 – 20011.“Reverse wave” 2.Enhancing personnel misbalance, including the ageing of the R&D contingent, lack of young personnel, and structural violations 3.Reducing number of medium-aged scientists 2002 – – present1.A new stage of the outflow of personnel from the S&T sector 2.New phenomena: –Emergence of numerous small and fragmentary short-term subjects with the participation of a great number of scientists ; –Strengthening stratification among researchers ; –New features of the mobility of personnel. 3.Brain drain from the young contingent of scientists 4.Some return of scientists from abroad (mostly programmers) 2

4. Main problems of funding of S&T activities Lack of a complex scientifically based funding system Shortage of funds Poor management of cash flows Consequences: –Lack of interrelationship between funding and output –Impossibility to ensure full- value activities of R&D institutions Consequences: –Crisis in human resources –Insecurity of operation costs –Low level of remuneration 3
