The editorial board believes that the publication of the journal is appropriate because there is a necessity for close scientific cooperation of scientists dealing with basic medical problems – morphologists, physiologists, biologists, representatives of clinical specialties, whose research indicates ways to solve both fundamental and applied problems. Materials for publication are accepted from specialists in the field of theoretical, preventive, clinical medicine, related disciplines, as well as research in the field of biological sciences. Thematically, the articles in the publication are divided into two areas: clinical and experimental medicine. Conclusions.
