In September 1936, a Mendeleev Congress was held in Moscow, organized by the Academy of Sciences to celebrate the 100th birthday of the discoverer of the Periodic Table of the Elements. By invitation of the Academy of Sciences, the then-recent winners of the Nobel Prize, Irene Joliot-Curie (12 September 1897-17 March 1956) and Frederic Joliot-Curie (19 March 1900-14 August 1958) were the guests of honor. On September 29, 1936, Frederic presented his lecture "The Structure of Matter and Artificial Radioactivity" at the Physical Faculty of MSU. The famous Soviet scientists S. I. Vavilov, N. D. Zelinskiy, L. I. Mandelshtam, A. Y. Fersman, and Frumkin were all present. The Joliot-Curie couple also visited the Karpov Institute, where Frumkin showed them around (Photo 4.18). 

Academy of Sciences of the USSR. A delegation, which included Frumkin, V. A. Kistyakovskiy, S. I. Vavilov, N. N. Semenov, and P. P. Lazarev, visited several towns in the region, which is rich in mineral resources, especially iron ore. As a result of this visit, a resolution was made to organize a complex of 11 research institutes, which formed the basis of the Ural Affiliation of the AS USSR. On Fmmkin s initiative, the Ural Physicochemical Institute was organized as an affiliate of the Karpov Institute. In this Institute, Sergey Vasil evich Karpachev (1906-1987) became the Head of a Laboratory of Electrochemistry of Molten Salts (Photo 4.25).
