Course content
The discipline is designed to form in the student a clear idea of the mechanisms of histogenesis and their plasticity during changes in the physiological status of the system in different periods of ontogenesis. It highlights the issues of the patterns of morphofunctional changes caused by the specifics of the implementation of a certain cellular / tissue development program, when changing the physiological status, at different stages of development, in the norm and in pathology, which is the object of research by a wide range of cytologists, histologists and cell biologists; and also outlines the range of algorithms, methods and methodological techniques of research that can be used when conducting experiments in related sciences and within the framework of interdisciplinary projects, and which require deep knowledge of this discipline.
The discipline is designed to generalize the idea of the systematic organization of living things and the role of regularly organized cellular systems in the formation, functioning and plasticity of cellular and supracellular groups.
