Dubna is a small scientific town, 120 km north of Moscow, on the bank of the Volga river (see http://www.dubna.ru). There is a direct (about two hours) train and bus connection to Moscow.

Dubna is a host of Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, an international research organization involving more than 20 countries (see http://www.jinr.ru). The institute activity embraces high-energy, nuclear and condensed matter physics.

As an international recognition of JINR achievements, the element number 105 of the Periodic Table is called Dubnium. For many years JINR and Laboratory of Theoretical Physics were headed by the celebrated scientist N.N. Bogoliubov.
