On 11 November 2026, at 16:00, the Association of Young Scientists and Specialists at JINR invites everyone interested to the next seminar that will take place in the Big Hall of the JINR Scientists’ Club (6 Joliot-Curie St, left side).
An ophtalmologist at Medical Unit No. 9 Karine Vagradyan will deliver a presentation “Methods of early diagnosis of diseases leading to reduced vision of the able-bodied population”.
The speaker will talk about the reduced vision, caused by retinal and optic nerve diseases, a significant medical and social problem, affecting, among others, the working-age population. The development of early diagnostic methods is of particular importance, as it opens up opportunity to detect pathological changes at preclinical stages, initiate treatment in a timely manner, and prevent irreversible loss of visual function. The speaker will discuss modern approaches and existing hardware solutions for diagnosing retinal and optic nerve pathologies as well as outline their diagnostic capabilities and limitations. Particular attention will be paid to the prospects for developing new high-precision diagnostic devices and the potential for interdisciplinary collaboration between medical specialists and researchers in physics, engineering, and instrumentation.
The seminar is part of the “Young scientists – young doctors” project, which aims to develop professional collaboration between young specialists from the Medical Unit No. 9 and young JINR scientists, fostering research-oriented clinical practice and promising interdisciplinary cooperation.
