Magnetogenetics
Within this direction, we create opportunities for magnetically controlled influence on cellular processes. We are developing a technology for the mechanical restructuring of intracellular components in a magnetic field. In addition, in a magnetic field, it becomes possible to regulate the activity of ion channels and receptors, signaling intracellular pathways. Thanks to this, it is possible to influence the activity of cells and determine their physiological state.
Sorting and delivery of RNA
Using natural RNA sorting and delivery systems, we are developing a comprehensive system for the treatment of genetic diseases. Delivery of therapeutic mRNA to target organs will make it possible to treat many diseases without the risk of integration into the patient's genome.
The study of stem cells
The study of stem cells covers the study of the mechanisms by which stem cells choose the path of differentiation. We study how the cell makes a choice of differentiation path, what signaling pathways are involved in these processes. An important task is the need to determine the conditions for the growth and development of cells under which it is possible to fully form a full-fledged tissue.
Popularization of science
The laboratory is actively involved in scientific and educational activities, participates in the organization of scientific festivals, educational events, seminars, summer schools and the creation of educational programs.
The laboratory is open to cooperation in scientific and educational areas. The high competence of the laboratory staff and extensive experience in preparing applications for grants and competitions allow you to analyze your project, draw up an experiment plan, a business plan and propose a development strategy.
