Оn March 13, the student research club of the Department of Physiology and Pathophysiology with the course of Medical Biology held a meeting dedicated to the topic: “Molecular-Genetic Mechanisms of Nervous System Disorders.”
In recent decades, molecular-genetic research has significantly expanded our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying nervous system diseases. Genetic factors—including mutations, gene polymorphisms, copy number variations, and epigenetic changes—play a crucial role in the development of numerous neurological disorders. Understanding these mechanisms not only aids in diagnosing and treating these conditions but also opens new avenues for developing more effective therapeutic strategies. Further research in this field could lead to substantial progress in the treatment and prevention of neurological disorders.
Presentations at the Meeting:
- Starostenko I.A. (MC.m-215) –”Molecular-Genetic Mechanisms of Friedreich’s Ataxia.”
- Chernysh O.O. (MC.m-215) –”Molecular-Genetic Mechanisms of Ischemic Stroke.”
- Dyadyura I.K. (MC.m-211) –”The Use of Genetic Scissors in Combating Nervous System Diseases.”
We extend our sincere gratitude to the speakers for their thorough preparation and engaging presentations!
