Extragalactic astrophysics is a developing branch of astronomy, at the forefront of science and encompassing many diverse research areas. Each of these areas requires the use of cutting-edge tools and technologies. Progress in extragalactic astrophysics is achieved through the use of advanced telescopes, powerful computing systems, and new methods for processing and analyzing large data sets. This international conference, held at St. Petersburg State University with the support of The Central Astronomical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences at Pulkovo, continues the tradition established by the conference on extragalactic astronomy, held in recent decades at the Pushchino Radio Astronomy Observatory. It will bring together more than 100 leading world-class specialists and promising young scientists. The conference will provide an important platform for exchanging experiences and discussing new approaches.
