The graduate student of the Yanka Kupala State University of Grodno completed an internship at the Lomonosov Moscow State University

2nd year undergraduate student of the Faculty of Biology and Ecology Anastasia Sosna completed an internship at the Department of Entomology of the Faculty of Biology of Lomonosov Moscow State University.

Anastasia attended lectures on molecular genetic methods in entomology, synanthropic insects, introduction to entomology, geographical distribution of Palearctic insects and methods of population control.

The master's student was able to listen to lectures by outstanding scientists and work in the laboratories of M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University. Anastasia Sosna has mastered a number of research and dissection methods for studying the functional morphology of the oral apparatus of insects using optical, confocal and electron microscopy. The young scientist performed DNA electrophoresis in agarose gel of the common mosquito (Culex pipiens) in order to separate DNA fragments by length and size on the basis of the laboratory of Molecular Genetics under the guidance of a specialist of the Department of Entomology in Molecular Biology Nadezhda Oyun.

The girl managed to work on the basis of the A.N. Belozersky Research Institute of Physico-Chemical Biology of Moscow State University and get new research skills in the field of insect physiology.
