Curriculum vitae

In 2005 graduated from the Molecular Physics Department of the Faculty of Physics of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. From 2005 to 2008 she was a postgraduate student of the radiophysics and physics departments. From October 2008 till September 2011 worked at the Department of Physics of Functional Materials of the same faculty as an engineer of the 2nd category. In March 2011 defended PhD thesis «Spectral manifestations of interaction of isoquinoline alkaloids with the DNA» by speciality 01.04.05 - optics, laser physics. Since October 2011 has worked as an assistant professor at the Depertment of Experimental Physics.
