Academic contributions

Dr. Igor Yegorov developed the new scientific approach to the studies of S&T and innovation potentials in the processes of social and economic development. He proposed methodological principles, methods and simulation models for analysis of the current state and the perspectives of further development of the Ukrainian scientific and technological and innovation potentials. He made a review of the dynamics of the S&T potential, including calculations of corresponding indicators of cadres of the Ukrainian science. He has also identified key problems of the future R&D development in Ukraine, and the ways and instruments for their solving.
