            Course content
        
        
            The discipline is a basic discipline that covers the prevention and treatment of viral infections.
The course is designed to summarize the student's understanding of the main prospects for the development and creation of active components of antiviral drugs, targets in the process of virus replication in the body, and provide insights into current trends and directions of basic research and applied research in chemotherapy for future infections.
