Main area of activity

Study of the impact of  lack of different metabolic components in food (proteinless, vitaminless and so on) by neurophysiological, neurochemical and neuromorphological methods on the formation of adaptive-compensatory processes in the CNS is the main direction of the scientific works of the laboratory. 

Main scientific achievements

The role of proteins and vitamins in the formation of central mechanisms of positive and negative emotional state and conditioned reflex activity has been revealed. A hypothesis on the presence of specific phylogenetical mechanism – “structural adaptative trace” which regulated all the forms of adaptive behavior has been put forward.
