PR19.1. Apply existing research methods, develop and implement new methods and technologies to address specific scientific, theoretical, and applied problems in biochemistry. PR20.1. Apply specialized professional knowledge and practical skills to address research and practical tasks in the field of biochemistry, and develop practical recommendations based on research findings in biochemistry and related sciences.

Full-time form

1. Successful completion of the courses "Methods of Modern Biological Research," "Bioinformatics," and "Computer Modeling in Biology." 2. Ability to independently work with scientific and educational-methodological literature; apply the knowledge and skills acquired through the courses "Methods of Modern Biological Research," "Bioinformatics," and "Computer Modeling in Biology"; and demonstrate an understanding of the principles underlying modern research methods. 3. Possession of basic systems analysis skills.

The discipline "Biochemical bases of immunity" is a component of a cycle of preparation of experts of educational level "Master" on the educational program "Biology". It acquaints the student with the basic principles of structure and functioning of the immune system, features of biochemical characteristics of antigenic determinants, the structure of immunoglobulins and their genes, lymphocyte activation and the specifics of immunodiagnostics in pathological conditions. The discipline "Biochemical bases of immunity" highlights the features of biochemical ways of implementing the immune system in the functioning of the body's defense mechanisms; modern research methods developed within the framework of immunochemical approaches widely used in biochemistry and medicine are outlined. The discipline is designed to generalize the idea of ​​structural diversity and functional uniqueness of the immune system, the regulation of which is coordinated by a wide range of biochemical processes.
