Form of study
External form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Successful mastering of courses "Virology", "Molecular Biology", "Biophysics".
2. Ability to apply knowledge and skills in the field of virology, molecular biology and molecular biophysics, acquired during previous training, to search and analyze the scientific literature.

Course content
The course covers the principles of structural and functional organization of viral particles and their components (proteins, nucleic acids) and the laws of their cooperative interaction during self-assembly of virus virions. The knowledge gained during the study of this discipline can be used in research in related sciences and in interdisciplinary.
