Course content
"Hormonal regulation of ontogenesis" is a basic discipline devoted to the study of general principles of humoral regulation of the formation of key stages of individual development of organisms. The course is aimed at forming in students a clear understanding of the basic principles of correlation of functioning of various organs, initiation of morpho-functional transformations in accordance with the stage of development of the organism, implementation of cross-regulation in the system of intraorganic interactions underlying processes of development, growth possible consequences of the development of endocrine disorders of various etiologies at different stages of ontogenesis.
