Research

    Overview of research:
    Research field is gross anatomy of the vascular, muscular and peripheral nerves systems in human. Themes of the research are following that: 1. Gross anatomical structure of the celiac artery. 2. Gross anatomical structure of the hepatic artery. 3. Gross anatomical studies of the aging changes of the aorta. 4. Gross anatomical structure of the intercostals, subcostal and lumbar arteries. 5. Gross anatomical structure of the embryological formations of the parietal and ventral branches on the aorta. 6. Gross anatomical structure of variations of the muscles in upper limbs.
