For the first time in six years the Scientific Session of ERS “Belomorskaia” was held. The conference was reborn in a new format, first of all, becoming a platform for students to present their work, carried out at the ERS. The event attracted a large number of participants from the Faculty of Biology, the Institute of Earth Sciences and outside organizations. Despite the large number of guests, the session was held in a friendly and warm atmosphere. We would like to thank everyone who participated in the organization and holding of the session! We hope that it will become an good annual tradition.
