Course content
The academic discipline "Histophysiology of vertebrate embryogenesis" is a component of the cycle of professional training of specialists with the educational degree "Bachelor" in the educational program "Biology". The discipline is a basic discipline that highlights the issues of the patterns of embryonic development of the main classes of vertebrate animals, the features of the microscopic and submicroscopic organization of organs and organ systems of the animal organism at different stages of embryogenesis in normal and pathological conditions, which is the subject of research by a wide range of developmental biologists, and also outlines the range of methods and techniques of research. which can be used when conducting experiments in related sciences and within the framework of interdisciplinary projects, and which require deep knowledge of this discipline. During the study of the discipline, considerable attention is paid to the importance and practical application of the study of embryonic development of animals of different taxonomic groups in the fields of medicine. agriculture. fundamental science.
