I would like to help and support any scientific research with Kotlin language. How can I do it? Where should I start?

The best way is to look at existing scientific libraries and contribute something mentioned on the issue list. Also you can start your own project and discuss it here. And the option to request some library or feature here is also quite useful.

Thank you Alex, also do you know or recommend any tutorial about that: I would like to visualize data with Intellij IDEA IDE on my computer (because I do not want to use browser). So, how can I do it?

Most of visualisation libraries are using browser. For non-browser plotting libraries, there are two relatively good choices: https://github.com/JetBrains/lets-plot-kotlin and https://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/. The second one is super-powerful but Java-based and has very archaic API.
Another solution is to use Kotli jupyter inside the IDEA https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/16340-kotlin-notebook. It allows to run browser-based visualisations inside the IDEA. It is complete yet (I did not manage to run in on windows), but it allows full exploratory analysis capabilities in theory.
