In modern medical institutions, in the treatment of patients with a high-risk factor, in state of immunosuppression, antibiotics of the widest spectrum are often prescribed. As a result, it is becoming increasingly difficult to prevent the development of most strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.<\/p>\n<p>Topic of work:\u00a0The Search for Mechanisms and Risk Factors for Antibiotic Resistance in <em>Acinetobacter baumannii<\/em> (<em>A. baumannii<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>Purpose of the work: To assimilate the<em> methodologies and evaluation criteria for determining the resistance and resistance mechanisms of A. baumannii<\/em>, and to determine the influence of antibiotic therapy on the selection of resistant strains.<\/p>\n<p>The research is funded by<strong> The European Social Fund under the measure No. 09.3.3-LMT-K-712 \u201cDevelopment of scientific excellence of scientists, other researchers and students through practical scientific activities\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Project \u201c<strong>Links Between Cervical Intraepithelial Lesions and Human Papillomavirus Types&#8221;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The aim of the project is to assimilate the methodology of cervical scrape cytological smear performance in an automatic system and to get acquainted with the criteria of evaluation according to the Bethesda system (2014).<\/p>\n<p>Persistent HPV infection causes cervical cancer in only a small percentage of women (Miranda PM, 2013). The longer the survival of a particular HPV genotype in the body, the probability that the virus will disappear, decreases, and the possibility of a pre-cancerous condition increases.
