Grant KEGA 006UK-4/2026 (Kultúrna a edukačná grantová agentúra Ministerstva školstva SR)

Názov: Modernizácia laboratórnych praktických cvičení z vývinovej antropológie

Riešiteľské obdobie: 2026 – 2028

Pozícia zodpovedného riešiteľa: Spoluriešiteľ

Názov: Aplikácia inovatívnych metodík biomedicínskej antropológie do vedecko-pedagogického procesu a ich význam pre klinickú, športovú a forenznú prax (KEGA 046UK-4/2023)

Roky realizácie: 2023, 2024, 2025

Pozícia zodpovedného riešiteľa: zástupca vedúceho projektu

Projekt sa zameriava na zavedenie moderných metód biomedicínskej antropológie do edukačného procesu s cieľom skvalitniť pedagogický prístup a umožniť študentom oboznámiť sa s najnovšími postupmi nielen na teoretickej, ale aj praktickej úrovni. Touto formou sa inovujú a zatraktívnia mnohé profilové predmety v rámci nových a existujúcich študijných programov Biológia a Medicínska Biológia na Prírodovedeckej fakulte Univerzity Komenského v Bratislave, ako napr. Antropológia, Anatómia a fyziológia človeka, Klinická a vývinová antropológia, Kriminalistická antropológia, Dermatogyfika a mnohé ďalšie. Nakoľko sa s problematikou biomedicínskej antropológie stretávajú viaceré odbory, získané poznatky budú prakticky využiteľné v mnohých diagnostických, či výskumných laboratóriách v rôznych sektoroch spoločenskej praxe.
