Educational work

 

At the Department of medical and biological physics, there is a school-seminar “Problems of Biophysics of Living and Bioethics” under the guidance of Associate Professor A. Yegorenkov. Within the framework of the work of this school-seminar, there are regular (3-4 times a year) general university open meetings for students and staff of the Bogomolets National Medical University. The participants of such lectures are not only from Ukraine but also from abroad.

 

These sessions are devoted to current and interdisciplinary problems of modern biophysics, biomedicine, and their ethical aspects. During the meetings, not only are the reports heard and the thematic videos presented but also interesting discussions are held on topics in which all the listeners participate. These gatherings became a kind of a propaedeutic school of bioethics for young researchers at the Bogomolets National Medical University.

 

In recent years the themes of work of the seminar-school has been varied significantly: “Biophysical and psychological aspects of the perception of portrait painting”, “Trial of 1949 over Japanese doctors-criminals of the unit 731: bioethical, medical, historical and social-psychological aspects”, “Doctor and society facets of bioethical interaction”,” Biomedical technologies of human rejuvenation “, etc.
