The Association of Institutes was formed on 11 May 1930 (Between 11 December 1924 and 1930 it was functioning as the Section for Natural and Mathematical Sciences) by Communist Academy (Sekciya estestvennykh i tochnykh nauk Kommunisticheskoi akademii). It was dissolved in 1932. In March 1925 the Division for Physical and Mathematical Sciences was formed in the Section. In 1928-1929 it was divided into separate physical and mathematical units which were then reorganized into Section after the for...
