The Laboratory of Clinical Biophysics is devoted primarily to theoretical and experimental research of clinically relevant problems by including methods of physics. The properties of cell and phospholipid membranes are studied with special emphasis on small (anisotropic) structures such as nanotubules, pores and micro/nano vesicles. Nanotubules and cellular micro/nano exovesicles are considered as transport systems within the body and are important in thrombosis, inflammation, promotion of cancer and autoimmune disorders.
