On March 21, a Forest Biosecurity Center will be opened at the University of Tyumen. This forestry project is going to become the first output of cooperation between UTMN and the Northern Arizona University (NAU), Flagstaff, USA.

In July 2018, our universities signed a cooperation agreement in the spheres of forest biosecurity that was supposed to entail creation of joint research laboratory.

Scientists from our universities conduct collaborative research as part of the Russian Science Foundation’s project “Symbiotic mites of bark beetles on main forest-forming coniferous trees in Western Siberia”. In March 2019, the first joint article by researchers from the UTMN X-BIO Institute and NAU School of Forestry was published in the leading journal in the field of acarology, “Experimental and Applied Acarology" (Q1).
