The Russian Academy of Natural Sciences ( Russian : Российская академия естественных наук) is a Russian non-governmental organization founded on August 31 1990 in Moscow in the former Soviet Union , following a decree by the Supreme Soviet of Russia . ^[1] As of 2018 ^[update] , the Academy operates under the Federal Law of August 23, 1996 No. 127-FZ "On Science and State Scientific-Technical Politics". ^[2]

As of 2020, ^[update] its president is Oleg Leonidovich Kuznetsov ^[3] and its Vice President and Chief Secretary is Lida Vladimirovna Ivanitskaya. ^[4]

The academy is not associated with the Russian Academy of Sciences . It has been criticised because many members lack scientific credentials and some espouse pseudoscientific theories such as Au?ra Augustinavi?i?t? 's socionics and Anatoly Fomenko 's " New Chronology ". ^{[5] [6] [7]} Currently, the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences includes 24 central sections, more than 100 regional and thematic departments, research centers, united in eight blocks working in the relevant areas. ^[8]
