At the moment, the staff of the department is implementing 4 scientific and technical grant funding programs of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan (formerly MES RK) 2022-2024:

  • AP14870089 "Development of molecular diagnostics of women's reproductive health disorders", supervisor - Kurmanova A.M.;
  • AP14869249 "Clinical, genomic and ecological approaches to the study of preterm birth", supervisor - Zhurabekova G.A., Associate Professor of the Department of Fundamental Medicine. During the implementation of the project, predictor factors (biological, psychological, social and environmental) of spontaneous preterm birth in women living in the territories of three environmentally disadvantaged regions of Kazakhstan will be identified.
  • AP14972889 Study of genetic-infectious mutual influence in the genesis of spontaneous preterm birth, performed by Berdalinova A.K., supervisor - Zhurabekova G.A. women living in the Aktobe region, the relationship between genomic polymorphism and placental changes in pregnant women with preterm birth will be determined. Morphological criteria will be presented - cellular tissue markers that are characteristic of infectious exposure during pregnancy leading to premature birth.
  • AP13268305 "Development of an ameliorant based on low-grade coal and coal solubilizing bacteria to improve the efficiency of saline soil reclamation." The project is carried out within the framework of grant funding for young scientists under the ZHAS GALYM project. Performer - Tagaev K.Zh.
