Halyna Kuznietsova

Doctor of Science

Description of the field of scientific research:

Halyna studies the mechanisms of development and therapy of inflammatory and neoplastic diseases of the intestine and liver (in animal models). She also explores modeling and research of liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and toxicological studies of carbon nanoparticles (C60 fullerenes, carbon dots). In addition, he is engaged in modeling burns of various origins and studying the mechanisms of their development and the possibilities of therapy.

List of duties:

Halyna is a researcher at the Institute of High Technologies of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. Currently, she is researching the biological properties of carbon nanoparticles (in collaboration with the Institute Lumiere et Matiere), particularly their potential as wound healing agents.

Professional experience:

In 2011, Halyna worked as an engineer at the Educational and Scientific Center "Institute of Biology and Medicine" of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. In 2012, she became a junior researcher, and in 2014, a researcher.

Since 2019, Halyna has been a senior researcher at the Institute of High Technologies of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. Since 2021, she has been a Researcher at Bienta/Enamine Ltd.

In addition, Halyna has been a member of the Ukrainian Physiological Society since 2013. During 2017-2018, she was also a member of the Safety Pharmacology Society, and since 2019, she has been a member of the Ukrainian Toxicology Society.

In 2019-2020, Halyna was a reviewer for projects of the National Research Foundation of Ukraine (NRFU). She is also a reviewer of scientific articles (journals of ScienceDirect, Wiley, Springer).
