On September 21, 2025, the Department of Psychophysiology at the Faculty of Psychology, Lomonosov Moscow State University, will celebrate its 55th anniversary, in accordance with the order issued by Rector I.G. Petrovsky establishing the department. Just two days later – on September 23 – will mark the 105th anniversary of the birth of its founder, the eminent scientist, Professor, and Academician of the Russian Academy of Education, Evgeny Nikolaevich Sokolov (1920–2008). These dates are not only close on the calendar, but also symbolically highlight the enduring connection between the fate of the scientific school and that of its creator. The scientific school of E.N. Sokolov, whose formation began in 1953 with the establishment of the Laboratory of Analyzers within the Department of Psychology of the Faculty of Philosophy at Moscow State University, became a cornerstone in the development of Russian psychophysiology as an independent discipline at the intersection of psychology and the natural sciences. E.N. Sokolov’s contribution to world psychophysiology was recognized by its highest distinction – the “Centennial Award – 1998” from the International Organization of Psychophysiology under the auspices of the United Nations. This article is dedicated to the key milestones in the evolution of one of Moscow University’s most renowned scientific traditions – the scientific and pedagogical psychophysiological school founded by E.N. Sokolov.
