In this connection, according to the signed decree, the Moscow University Charter (approved by government resolution No 223 of 28 March 2008) has been updated with clauses about the creation of a new structural unit, a national anti-doping laboratory. Using contemporary methods, the laboratory will implement measures to provide anti-doping support to Russian national sports teams, carry out independent testing of samples of biological materials for doping control, while also conducting research aimed at preventing and fighting doping in sports.
The introduced amendments will allow the national
anti-doping laboratory to carry out its activities at Moscow University
(independent of government authorities) both in accordance with the
International Convention against Doping in Sports of 19
October 2005 and Russian law.
