The Laboratory of Medical Genetics conducts fundamental and translational research focused on the role of genetic and environmental factors in the development of diseases during childhood and adolescence. Its primary area of expertise is the investigation of multifactorial disorders and the development of innovative approaches for early diagnosis, risk prediction, and disease prevention.
Research activities encompass genetic aspects of endocrine, rheumatologic, reproductive, and other chronic pediatric conditions. Particular attention is given to the identification of genetic susceptibility markers, gene-environment interactions, and predictive models of disease development and progression.
The Laboratory has extensive experience in cytogenetic investigations, genetic counseling, and studies of the long-term biological effects of environmental exposures. An important area of expertise includes research on the genetic consequences of the Chornobyl nuclear accident, cytogenetic monitoring, and the identification of biomarkers associated with radiation exposure.
Research findings contribute to the advancement of precision medicine, personalized risk assessment, early detection strategies, and evidence-based genetic counseling for children, adolescents, and their families.
