On December 1, 2022 \u2013 May 31, 2023, post-graduate student of the Department of Medical Biochemistry Nataliia Mekhno interned at the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain) on the basis of the modern scientific laboratory centre CiMUS (the Centre for Research in Molecular Medicine and Chronic Diseases) as part of the Erasmus+ KA107 program.
Nataliia Mekhno completed an internship in the Genomes and Disease research group under the guidance of Associate Professor Jos\u00e9 Manuel Castro Tubio and Associate Professor Iria Maria Gomez Turino. During this time, she got acquainted with the method of sequencing and quantitative PCR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nataliia Mekhno was invited to a video conference with the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky at the Europe Unity For Well-Being event, initiated by T. Shevchenko Kyiv National University within the EUniWell Alliance of European Universities, which took place on May 9, 2023. The EUniWell Alliance unites 11 universities in Europe, including the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain) and Taras Shevchenko Kyiv National University (Ukraine). The event was broadcast to all 11 EUniWell universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The experience gained will allow Natalia Mekhno to use the methods she has learned about in her scientific activities and in research at Ternopil National Medical University.
Internship in the modern laboratory of the Centre for Research in Molecular Medicine and Chronic Diseases opens new horizons for scientists and researchers, creates conditions for cooperation between I. Horbachevsky Ternopil National Medical University and the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
