Maria Pevchikh announced that Georgy Alburov will take over from her as head of the Anti-Corruption Foundation’s investigations unit.

Pevchikh said she was stepping down because she had been admitted to Harvard. “I came up with this crazy scheme back in 2007, but I’ve only now managed to pull it off,” she wrote.

Alburov will lead the unit only temporarily, Pevchikh said — “for the next year.”

Alburov has run the foundation’s investigations unit before: he led it for several years in the 2010s, until Pevchikh took over from him.
