Background:
In 2016, graduated from F. Skoryna Gomel State University with a diploma in Biology. Accepted in a position of a junior researcher at the Peat Soil Laboratory, Research Institute of Radiology (since 2019 – Institute of Radiobiology of the National Academy of Sciences).
From January 2020, he works as a jr. reseacher at the Laboratory of Environmentally Safe Animal Production under Technogenic Contamination Conditions.
In 2019, mastered an advanced training course on “Career Management in the Field of Science” at the Institute for Scientific Staff Education and Training of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus. In 2019, completed his master’s course at F. Skoryna Gomel State University with a master’s degree in Biology.
An author and co-author of 16 scientific publications, including 6 recommendations.
Participates in the laboratory’s research activities under the State and Union-State Chernobyl R&D Programmes on the following topics:
– Synthesise a carbon ferrocyne-containing sorbent and study its radioprotective properties in order to reduce concentrations of 137Cs and other technogenic toxicants in cow milk and slaughter products;
– Develop the compositions of compound mineral supplements based on phosphogypsum in order to reduce the levels of 90Sr concentration in cow milk;
– Develop recommendations on lamb production for agricultural enterprises, farms and personal households located in the area of radioactive contamination;
– Scientifically justify and elaborate a set of measures to improve the efficiency of horse breeding in the area of radioactive contamination, using the example of Polesye State Radioecological Reserve.
Currently is involved in the following research activities:
– Develop uniform recommendations on the optimization of feed production and animal husbandry in the area of radioactive contamination to ensure production of animal products in line with the established regulatory standards;
– Study and optimize the mineral composition and the content of vitamin D in dairy cattle rations to reduce the feed-to-milk transfer of 90Sr.
