External form

1. Successful mastering of the disciplines "Virology", "Principles of safety in the virological laboratory", "Identification of viruses", "Genetics of viruses", "Human and animal viruses". 2. Be able to independently apply knowledge of general virology, etc. academic disciplines to solve specific scientific and practical problems, work with scientific and scientific-methodical literature. 3. Have basic skills in defining the concepts of biorisk, biosecurity, biosafety, biorisk management system. Use in professional activities conceptual approaches to biosafety.

The teaching of this discipline is aimed at mastering the basic issues of biosafety in the use of viruses in bioengineering technologies, covers issues of vaccines, biological products. It is important to form in future specialists an understanding of the principles of forecasting biorisks and biothreats when working with virological objects, safety rules in the virological laboratory, modern principles of biological safety in laboratory conditions, basics of national security of Ukraine, the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological Weapons in the System of Measures for the Non-Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction. Factors influencing risks and determining the probability and consequences of influencing risks, categories of control measures, principles, technologies and practices implemented to prevent unintentional release and spread of pathogens and toxins, assessment of biological risk are considered in detail.
