Comparative analysis of key statistical indicators on science and technology performance in Ukraine and Russia in the post-Soviet period is made, with emphasis on the evolution of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) of Ukraine and the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS). Similar and distinctive features in the evolution of the two national science & technology systems and the two national academies are shown by use of statistical data on R&D capacity of GDP, research personnel, R&D financing, publication activity, patenting and licensing activity. Conclusions are made with respect to specifics of the dynamics and restructuring of personnel and financing sources at national and Academy level in the two countries. It is emphasized that while the two Academies could really work in spite of poor financial support, fleeing and ageing personnel, and could product excellent results with far smaller expenditures than analogous research teams in the West, political debate about 'transplanting' basic science from academies to universities looks quite odd, as mere 'transplantion' from one department to another one cannot produce anything but losses of the accumulated resources and capacities. Ambitious declarations about the innovation-driven development could only be implemented given the radical revision of decision-making on research funding in Russia and Ukraine alike. Recent measures to support large projects on nanotechnologies, stimuli for researchers' repatriation etc., taken by the Russian government inspire some optimism, whereas Ukrainian science has not enjoyed an additional support.

Changes in the personnel component of the Ukrainian science system are studied over the period of 2002-2008, by use of relevant statistical data on Ukraine, and comparisons with analogous data on Russia and several other post-socialist countries. Study of the Ukrainian personnel is made by age category (younger than 29; 31-40; 41-50; 51-60; 61-9; older than 70), by age category of researchers with higher qualification (candidate of sciences, doctor of sciences), by age category of higher qualification researchers in sectors of science (academy, branch, HEEs, factory). The analysis gives grounds for conclusions that in Ukraine, contrary to other post-socialist countries (including Russia), the crisis in the science system has been on, due to the continuing outflow of young personnel and ongoing ageing process, resulting in prevalence of old age categories of scientists on higher qualification positions and on administrative positions at research institutes. Measures of the government to push youth to science (special competitions, support with dwelling, grants for international conferences, stipends etc.) did have a certain effect, but, not being systemic, failed to evolve radical change, as the share of young researchers still remains too small. Yet, in spite of the continuing reduction in research personnel, Ukraine still has a big stock of research personnel, and science & technology activities in Ukraine has featured stabilization during the latest years.
