Research work of the department is devoted to various sections of pathology of the person and directed to the solution of important scientific and practical tasks. The greatest attention was paid to diseases of pancreatic and thyroid glands, pathology of an organ of vision in the perinatal period and to the kliniko-anatomic analysis of medical errors. In recent years, the patho-morphology of liver diseases and oncomorphology have become the main scientific directions of the department.
In accordance with the plan, the staff of the department perform research work on the topics:
- "Structure, morphogenesis, verification methods and morphological assessment of the prognosis of the most important human tumors",
- "Pathogenesis, clinic, treatment and prevention of eco-dependent pathology in modern conditions" (2006-2010),
- "Development and implementation of methods for diagnosing, predicting outcomes and improving the treatment of HIV infection and liver diseases of various origins" (Department of Infectious Diseases 2008-2012),
