In 1973 he defended his thesis for the degree of the candidate of technical sciences on the topic – “Investigation of the phenomenon of electrochemiluminescence and the development of new electronic devices and devices based on it”. From 1975 to 1979 – associate professor of the department of ultrahigh-frequency physics (MVV). From 1975 to 1980 – Dean of the Faculty of Electronics, KIRI, since 1979 – Head of the Department of Theoretical Foundations of Electrical Engineering.

In 1990 he defended his doctoral dissertation in the field of physical electronics.

From 1996 to 2017 – the head of the department of biomedical electronic devices and systems.

Since 2017 – Professor of the Department of Biomedical Engineering.

Educational activity

I started teaching in 1966. He studied courses: the use of electronic devices, electronic and semiconductor devices, theoretical foundations of electrical engineering, the basis of electrical engineering and electronics, etc. Developed and integrated new courses: optoelectronics, physical basis of functional electronics. He took an active part in creating the first specialty in Ukraine – electronic medical equipment, and also was the head of the department of the first in Ukraine specialty “Biomedical engineering”.

Research activities
