The conference was attended by more than 100 participants from the United States, Russia, Egypt, Australia, India, Mexico, South Africa, Nepal. The main topics were dedicated to issues of diabetes and metabolic disorders, complications of diabetes, modern methods of prevention and treatment. Accordind to the opinions of our professors, particular attention should be paid to the topic of «Nursing Care», because in Russia it is not yet represented either in the educational or in the practical sector.
Professor Irina Alekseevna Kurnikova, published more than 30 articles in reputed journals, the author of 25 books and tutorials in Russian language, 10 inventions (patents), leading expert in the field of diagnostics, treatment, rehabilitation of diabetic and thyroid diseases,< the key speaker of the conference, presented the report «The role of autoimmune neuropathy in the formation and progression of arterial hypertension in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus». The publication of the full version of the report showed interest in two scientific journals - «Journal of Diabetes and Metabolism» and «Medical and Clinical Research». Also as chairman Irina Alekseevna Kurnikova, held one of the sessions.
Associate Professor Tarasova, in her turn, made a plenary report «Antiviral drug interferon in combination with metformin in the treatment of viral hepatitis C» with the HCV-1 genotype and insulin resistance».
International conferences on diabetes and endocrinology are held regularly in the US and Europe under the support of Program Diabetes Global. Russian specialists rarely take part in them, but after the conference in Charlotte, the RUDN University scientists received invitations to other European and American scientific forums.
A RUDN chemist has synthesized an electrocatalyst based on gold nanoparticles with organic ligands, which can trigger both hydrogen production reactions and oxygen reduction reactions in fuel cells. The yield of products with the new catalyst was twice as high as when using a traditional platinum-based catalyst.
A chemist from RUDN University has proposed a new way to control toluene photooxidation using composite catalysts — artificial diamond and titanium dioxide. The discovery refutes the previously existing physical hypothesis about the process of photooxidation of toluene.
A RUDN University biologist has developed a model for the analysis of photosynthesis in vivo. This method allows you to calculate the absorption coefficient of light by chlorophyll, based on its reflectivity. Analysis of light absorption is important for assessing ecosystem productivity, which affects the state of the biosphere and the global climate.
