The magistrand of the Institute of Biology and Biotechnology will participate in the project "Gene from a test tube: at the junction of mathematics, biology and chemistry"
The first-year student of the Master's program “Pharmaceutical Biotechnology” of the VyatSU Anna-Anastasia Misterova was among the winners of the competition for participation in the unique project “Gene from a test tube: at the junction of mathematics, biology and chemistry”.
The program is organized by the Educational Foundation "Talent and Success" and the international innovative biotechnology company BIOCAD; It is focused on students who are familiar with the basic concepts and methods of molecular biology and follow the global trends in personalized medicine. The team members will have to implement the stages of the company's R & D projects related to the synthesis of genetic constructions, based on the Laboratory of Genetic Engineering Technologies of the Park of Science and Arts “Sirius” (Sochi) in April.
The competitive selection was serious - 5 participants from four universities from all over the country were selected: RNRMU named after N.I. Pirogov of the Ministry of Health of Russia, Moscow State University named after M.V. Lomonosov, First MSMU named after I. M. Sechenov of the Ministry of Health of Russia and Vyatka State University. It is important to note that in the formed team, Anna-Anastasia is the only biotechnologist among students of biological and medical specialties.
To pass the selection it was necessary to provide a resume, a letter of motivation, as well as to solve practical cases. I am confident that the decisive role was played by the excellent mastering of the curriculum in the direction of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, which includes courses in genetic engineering, cell technology, and pharmaceutical biotechnology.
The practical skills formed during the training became the key to a successful case solution. My postgraduate work done at the Biotechnology Department of VyatSU using advanced
equipment and modern techniques was the basis of my resume. I hope that I can show myself well in front of the leaders of science and industry of Russia, - shared Anna-Anastasia.
We wish Anna-Anastasia and the whole team successful implementation of a joint project!
