In 1992, the Scientific Secretary of the center was Larisa D. Bazarova, C. Geol. S. The
Irkutsk Eastern Siberian Branch was organized in 1949. In 1992, the Russian
Academy officially recognized it as the Irkutsk Scientific Center. The total
personnel of the center was 5254 persons of whom 1696 were research scientists
and of whom 129 held the doctorate and 845 the candidate degree. Three
academicians and nine corresponding members of the Russian Academy of
Sciences worked in institutes of the center. The Center has under its jurisdiction 13
major scientific units including independent research institutes, one department of a
Novosibirsk institute, and a widespread Pilot Plant for the collection of scientific
information at astrophysical observatories, geographic stations, and seismic
stations. Institute scientists work closely with the higher educational institution, the
industrial scientific research centers, and the design institutes in the region. The
Institute of Economics and Industrial Engineering in Novosibirsk maintains a
Department of Regional Economics and Deployment of Productive Forces of
Eastern Siberia in Irkutsk for the purpose of developing approaches to and methods
of building long range regional development programs, particularly in areas such as
Angara-Yenisei, the Baikal-Amur Railway, the Irkutsk, Bratsk-Ust-Ilimsk, and the
Verkhne-Lensk Territorial Production Complexes, and other regional productive
