Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Successful mastering of scientific-theoretical and practical material of academic disciplines taught to students of the educational level "Bachelor", including disciplines of specialization "Biophysical research methods" and others.
2. Be able to independently apply knowledge of cytology, biochemistry, molecular biology, etc. disciplines, work with scientific and methodological literature.
Course content
The discipline is devoted to the consideration of the basic principles of structural organization of biomembranes, analysis of processes and phenomena occurring in them. Modern ideas about the structure and principles of functioning of biomembranes are considered; structural and functional characteristics of the main components of the biomembrane; physicochemical mechanisms of biomembrane stabilization; modern scientific trends and practical significance of biomembrane research methods in biophysical and biomedical research.
