First of all, it should be noted that Russian citizens can become either academicians or corresponding members at the RAS. In general, these two categories constitute the backbone of this organization. This system has remained since the days of the Soviet Union. The USSR Academy of Sciences ceased to exist in 1991, but its traditions continue to this day.
Citizens of other states, in turn, have the opportunity to obtain the title of a foreign member. For the most part, academicians hold executive positions in parallel in various research institutes, for which they are paid a corresponding salary.
It should be noted that the main benefit of an academician is life-long election. The status is usually obtained by those who have already been a corresponding member for a certain time. Moreover, according to the charter, only academicians have the right to vote in elections.
As you know, the last time the elections were held at the end of October 2016. Their difference from the previous ones is that this time the majority of the vacancies were occupied by relatively young scientists. An age limit was introduced for applicants - up to 61 years. In this way, the organization is trying to somewhat rejuvenate its composition.
What membership gives
By and large, the title of academician is nothing more than a reward for certain merits and achievements on the scientific path. Thus, in fact, the recognition of the value of the work of one or another scientist at the state level and within the framework of the Russian scientific community is ensured.
In accordance with the law, the title of Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences is not considered an academic degree, but it is highly attractive due to its prestige.
Among other things, based on the RAS Charter, academicians have the following rights:
- take part in the affairs of the Russian Academy of Sciences in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation;
- to be elected, as well as to participate in elections to the governing bodies of the Academy;
- initiate consideration of issues of both scientific and organizational nature in the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences;
- to require the provision of information regarding the activities of the RAS in the prescribed manner;
- receive cash payments introduced by a government decree every month.
Salaries and other payments to academics
As can be understood from the above, the benefits available to RAS academicians are mostly of an image nature. Nevertheless, since Soviet times, there are certain payments for the title. So under the USSR, each academician received 500 rubles a month, which was then a very substantial amount.
After the formation of the Russian Federation as an independent state, this practice was retained. So, in February 2016, the government, by its decree numbered 86, established a new amount of payments. As you might guess, the amount of scholarships has been increased. True, only members of the State Academy felt the growth. At the RAS, they were left at the same level. They, in particular, were put into effect back in 2008, the Russian Cabinet of Ministers then determined their size as follows:
- for academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences - 100 thousand rubles;
- for member correspondents - 50 thousand;
- for academicians of GAN - 60;
- for GAN Correspondents - 30.
The Russian academician, in addition to universal respect and honor, receives life support from the state budget. And this despite the fact that scientists of this rank usually earn good money at their main workplace.
Other benefits
 Of course, it should be admitted that academics now have fewer privileges than they did in Soviet times. However, the available preferences are more than enough. At least many people think so.
Other privileges include the ability, if necessary, to use official transport from the academy garage.
In addition, they also receive medical assistance from the doctors of the polyclinic operating under the Office of the President of the Russian Federation. The same right is reserved for their relatives, however, only the closest ones.
MOSCOW, November 24 - RIA Novosti. The RAS ruled out the possibility of officials leaving the academy, since membership in it is life-long. At the same time, the organization noted that each applicant for an "academic" place made a decision to participate in the elections independently.
On the eve, President Vladimir Putin threatened to fire civil servants-academicians in order to leave them time for scientific research. Tulokhonov: only officials are prohibited from combining work with membership in the RASThe President said unequivocally about the executive authorities, about the civil service, in which it is really impossible to combine activities, this "absolutely does not concern parliamentarians," Senator Arnold Tulokhonov believes.At the end of October, 25 officials ran for elections to the RAS, 14 of whom received academic titles as a result. In particular, Senator Arnold Tulokhonov became an academician, and Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs - Head of the Investigation Department Alexander Savenkov, Head of the Registration and Archival Funds of the FSB Vasily Khristoforov and Deputy Director for Science of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research Igor Sheremet - Corresponding Members.
Only scientific work
At a meeting of the Council for Science and Education, Putin recalled that at the end of 2015 he asked his colleagues not to take part in the elections to the RAS. The head of state then explained his position by the fact that it is difficult to combine scientific and managerial activities. 
Governors are also concerned: Putin recalled the rules of membership in the Russian Academy of SciencesA person cannot hold major positions, notable ones, which require him to devote his efforts and time and at the same time engage in serious research work, the Russian president noted."Nevertheless, some of our colleagues from the Presidential Property Management Department, from the Ministry of Education, from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, from the Ministry of Defense, from the Federal Security Service, from the FSB and from some other departments took part in the election (to the Academy of Sciences) and were elected ", - said Putin. RAS President Vladimir Fortov told the President that all candidates had assured that they had received permission to participate in the competition. As a result, the officials passed the tests "without any exceptions or exceptions."
"I think that I will have to give them the opportunity to engage in science, because, apparently, their scientific activity is much more important than performing some routine administrative duties in the government and administration," Putin said.
"The question arises whether they can engage in scientific research in full with the desired results," the president added.
Personal initiative
Peskov assessed the chances of officials elected to the RAS to keep their postsThe head of state promised the employees of the Presidential Administration, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the FSB, who were elected to the Russian Academy of Sciences, to provide the opportunity to engage only in scientific activities instead of working in government bodies.Chief Scientific Secretary of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences Mikhail Paltsev said that each official made a personal decision to participate in the elections. At the same time, he admitted that the academy knew about Putin's recommendation. "We accepted them according to scientific criteria. Everyone who participated in the elections met these requirements," Paltsev said.
According to the procedure, each applicant must speak to academicians six times, after each speech, the current members of the academy vote on candidates.
Meanwhile, a RIA Novosti source in the Russian Academy of Sciences said that if the officials-members of the academy decide to give up the title, they will not be able to do so.
"These appeals will not be accepted at all, because they do not comply with the (RAS) charter," the agency's interlocutor said.
The head of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Vladimir Fortov, later said that none of the newly minted scientists had yet asked to expel him from the academy.
The end goal is clear
Meanwhile, the presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov noted that Putin clearly stated his position on this issue. "All relevant departments have unambiguously listened to what the president said. Now they are dealing with this situation," Peskov told reporters.
"But the ultimate goal is clearly defined by the president," concluded Peskov.
What does an academic title give
RAS is the largest state academy of sciences in Russia, now it includes 944 academicians, all of them are elected for life.
Formally, the title "Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences" is not considered an academic title, but it gives a number of privileges. Among them - the right to a monthly bonus to the official salary at the place of work.

Academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences, whose list is replenished every year, are the holders of the highest status in Russian science. A citizen of the Russian Federation who publishes scientific works of great public importance in various fields of knowledge can count on the title of academician. In 2017, there are almost a thousand RAS academicians in Russia, to be precise - 932. According to the charter, their main and only goal is to enrich science with their achievements.
How to become an academician?
In 2012 he became a Doctor of Science. His research interests also include electron cooling of beams, their generation, storage rings, and object-oriented programming.
Academician at 32
One more physicist, Aleksandr Nikolaevich Skrinsky, was the earliest of all living people. He was born in Orenburg in 1936.
He was engaged in experimental problems and studied accelerators and high-energy physics. With his participation, the latest types of colliders were developed and created. Since 1968 Corresponding Member At that time he was only 32 years old. Two years later he received the title of "Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences".
Later, he developed a method for electron cooling and detection of polarized beams. He played a decisive role in the development of applied physics, as well as in the creation of the latest types of lasers and the production of beam technologies.
Physiologist-academician
In 2016, full members of the Russian Academy of Sciences accepted physiologist Lev Girshevich Magazanik into their ranks. To receive an honorary title at this age is a kind of record, at least among living academics.
Lev Girshevich was born in Odessa in 1931. In the field of his scientific research - the work of ion channels, the effect of neurotoxins on various types and types of receptors. Among his inventions are unique instruments, thanks to which it became possible to study the organization of molecules in membranes.
Magazanik conducted joint research with foreign scientists around the world - in France, Switzerland, Great Britain, Germany. The result of his work was the creation of new drugs that help to establish interaction between neurons in healthy and sick
Physicians among academics
Academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences are elected today in 12 departments and sections. Medicine occupies one of the key places on this list. The majority of women academics are here. One of them is obstetrician-gynecologist Leyla Vladimirovna Adamyan.
She was born in Tbilisi. Educated in Moscow. From 1989 to the present day, he has been the head of the department of operative gynecology at the corresponding research institute. In 2004 she was awarded the title of academician.
Leyla Adamyan is famous for being fluent in all types of gynecological operations known to today's science. The objects of her research are the use of X-rays in reproductive medicine. He works a lot on issues of treatment of pregnant women and children.
Thanks to her, modern surgical technologies are used today, which made it possible to at least halve the severity and consequences of adhesions that occur after gynecological operations.
Academic mathematicians
Another area of knowledge that is traditionally preferred by academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the list of which is replenished after that, is mathematics.
Today, one of the most famous scientists in this field is Ludwig Dmitrievich Faddeev, who became a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences back in 1976. He specializes in the field of mathematical physics.
Most of his work and research is devoted to solving three-body problems in quantum mechanics. In modern science, this problem is known by his name - the Faddeev equation. He also deals with the Schrödinger equation. He penned two hundred scientific works and monographs.
They can be proud that among them there is RAS. Mathematicians devote a lot of time to theoretical work, however, it is often appreciated at its true worth. In 2008, Ludwig Faddeev received the Shao Prize in Hong Kong, which is presented annually to the world's best scientists. He received the award in the category "Mathematics" with another compatriot Vladimir Arnold. Their contribution to the popularization of mathematical physics was appreciated.
