I. Mechnikov lectures from the famous molecula.club for medical students and biologists.  The topic of the lecture was pre-selected by voting more than a hundred listeners, and for a pleasant coincidence, the choice fell on the main field of scientific activity Elie Metchnikoff - was chosen precisely the immunological block of the cycle.

Victor Dosenko and Yuri Zhigarev will come to Odessa to tell us about one of the most mysterious systems of our body - immunity. What is it like? Who are those antigens? What did Ralph Steinman get the Nobel Prize for? And about many other things, look at the screen of 27 audiences at the Faculty of Biology of the ONU. Mechnikov on Friday and Saturday this week!

Friday, 30.11.18 successfully passed the lecture, where we were able to dispel myths about HIV, talked about the origin, structure, diagnosis and modern treatment methods.

International ties are becoming part of our everyday lives. We are increasingly not only traveling abroad for congresses, conferences, internships, etc., but also accept foreign guests at our university in same formats. It is unlikely that there will be a faculty that would not have such connections.

But today it is about work at the Odessa University by Jason David Hans - a Fulbright Program partisipant, a professor at the Faculty of Family Studies, editor-in-chief of the journal “Family Science Review” (University of Kentucky), - who for the second time worked with students, doctoral students and lecturers in our Faculty of Psychology.
In the first Fulbright term, Professor Jason Hans taught two semesters in English with lectures on family problems and sexual relations for students of different faculties. Certificate of graduation was received by 27 students.
This academic year began on September 7, 2017, with a public lecture by Professor D. Hans "Scientific publications in the USA: myths and reality" at the regular meeting of the psychology section at the Odessa House of Scientists.
