Mineev graduated in 1969 from the
Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology
and then became a graduate student at Moscow's
Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics
. There in 1974 he received his Russian
Candidate of Sciences
degree (Ph.D.) and in 1983 his Russian
Doctor of Sciences
degree (habilitation). At the Landau Institute of Theoretical Physics, he was a researcher from 1972 to 1991 and a vice-director from 1992 to 1999, as well as holding a chair in theoretical physics from 1991 to 1999. In 1993 and 1994 he organized Landau Institute summer schools. In
Grenoble, France
at the
Institut Nanosciences et Cryogenie
of the
Commissariat a l'energie atomique et aux energies alternatives
(CEA)
, he was in charge of the theory group,
Service de physique statistique, magnetisme et supraconductivite
(SPSMS), from 1999 to 2006 and is since 2006 a senior scientist. He is both a Russian and French citizen. He has served as a referee for the
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
,
Nature Physics
,
Physical Review Letters
, and many other physics journals.

He has been a visiting scientist in 8 different countries. His visiting appointments at various locations include the
Aspen Center for Physics
in 1977 and again in 1989, France's
IHES
in 1978?1979, Finland's Low Temperature Laboratory of
Aalto University
at various times from 1979 to 1992, Denmark's
Niels Bohr Institute
in 1980 and again in 1998, Gothenburg's
Chalmers University of Technology
in 1981,
ETH Zurich
in 1991 and again in 2003 and 2008, Grenoble's
Institut Laue-Langevin
in 1993,
Florida State University
's
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory
in 1998?1999 and again in 2005,
Ky?to
's
Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics
in 1999 (as a guest professor),
University of Oxford
in 2003, both
Tel Aviv University
and the
Weizmann Institute
in 2004 and again in 2008, and the USA's
Argonne National Laboratory
in 2011.
In 1992 he received the
Landau Gold Medal
for the topological classification of stable defects in ordered media. In 2014 he was awarded the
Lars Onsager Prize
.
[2]
His research deals with various problems in solid state physics, especially the theory of superconductivity and its interaction with magnetism.
