Memoirs of women who survived the Great Patriotic War as a way to preserve historical memory (analysis using the example of a narrative interview with Crimean women)

The article examines the features and problems of integrating young researchers into the scientific community of a modern science city, as well as analyzes the role of urban infrastructure and communication practices in shaping a scientific career. The empirical basis of the research consists of semi-structured interviews with young scientists studying and employed in the science city. A total of 15 interviews were collected. Thematic analysis was used as the main method of analysis, during which two key topics were identified: the importance of urban infrastructure as an environment for scientific activity and the role of communication with the scientific community, ensuring inclusion in the scientific environment. Based on the consideration of these topics, it is concluded that vertical integration into local scientific communities is important for young scientists. In addition, the importance of a well-developed infrastructure and informal communication channels is emphasized as factors contributing to the inclusion of young specialists in the professional scientific community. The article also analyzes the role of research teams in building individual career paths, emphasizing that both the urban environment and local professional communities have a significant impact on the motivation of young researchers to pursue an academic career. Communication within the community plays a key role, providing opportunities for the effective realization of scientific potential.
