It is, in science. As example, even when full-text translations of
Russian (and Polish, for that matter)
scientific journal articles are not provided, English abstracts nearly
invariably accompany publication.

Alas, this refers to a 1999 event-- though thank you for this link!
I've now been over to the site and done extensive hyper-linking
(though not *totally* exhaustive, yet)
and have not so far turned up the Institute in question, though I note
that English names (or trans-literations) are  routinely given the
Kazakh institutes listed there. We shall see.

Thanks again, José. At least we now know they're Kazakh, or there are
others of the same Institute name.
 Post -USSR, a Kazakh institute would be highly unlikely to call
itself 'Russian,' as may be sensed by the writing on the site you
referred to-- distinctly 'national' in character.
