Department of Clinical Immunology and Allergology with Medical Genetics Section
Scientific work
Responsible employee for the scientific work of the department is Associate Professor, Candidate of Medical Sciences Tsaryk Vladislav Viktorovich.
Main areas of work. The department conducts scientific research to improve approaches to the treatment of immunodeficiency, immune-dependent and allergic diseases. To solve these issues, the department uses the latest diagnostic methods (ELISA, multicomponent allergy diagnostics, patch testing, PCR (to determine gene polymorphism, etc.)
Research work. The scientific theme of the department is “Study of immunogenetic aspects of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of allergic and other socially significant multifactorial diseases”.
Two Ph.D. and two doctoral dissertations are being carried out at the department, which are devoted to solving urgent problems of allergology, a dissertation work on scientific topics is planned, which will include the use of modern genetic research methods. The department also carries out scientific work within the framework of public health. Population studies of the frequency and spectrum of allergic diseases among the population of Ukraine are carried out using modern digital applications and artificial intelligence in the framework of joint cooperation with European associations of allergists.
The staff of the department are members of UTIAI (Ukrainian Society of Specialists in Immunology, Allergology and Immunorehabilitation) and EAACI (European Society of Immunologists and Allergists), take an active part in International Congresses and Congresses.
