In memory of Alexander V. Novikov

On 23 April 2024, at age of 69, our colleague Alexander V. Novikov — Doctor of Medical Sciences, Chief Scientific Officer of the Consultative and Rehabilitation Department of the Institute of Traumatology and Orthopaedics at PRMU University Hospital — passed away. Alexander V. Novikov devoted more than 30 years of his activity to the formation and development of rehabilitation direction in the Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics in Nizhny Novgorod. He was a responsible, highly qualified specialist, a friendly and sympathetic doctor who inspired patients with faith in recovery. The staff of the Institute of Rehabilitation and Human Health N.I. Lobachevsky State University of Nizhni Novgorod and the editorial board of the journal “N.N. Priorov Journal of Traumatology and Orthopedics” deeply grieve about the loss.
