Summary
Studying materials in extreme conditions is a promising area of research that helps to uncover previously unknown secrets about our planet. According to Chinese-American geophysicist Ho-Kwang Mao, the scale and importance of the high-pressure area correspond to a separate branch of physics. The complexity of these studies is quite high, so they require the exchange of international experience. The Centre, which is headed by Professor Mao, employs research teams from different countries, including BRICS. The scientist himself also works closely with colleagues from Russia. Ho-Kwang Mao, director of the Shanghai Centre for Advanced Research in High-Pressure Science and Technology, answered these and other questions. TV BRICS reporter: Yana Panferova
