| Summary: | Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor of the Department of Normal Physiology Leonid Innokent'evich Korytov is 80 years old. Leonid Innokent'evich was born on August 28, 1943 in the Buryat ASSR in a large family. In 1960 he graduated from the Dyrestuevskaya secondary school in the Dzhidinsky district of the Buryat ASSR. The choice of a profession in his youth was greatly influenced by teachers of biology and physics: O.V. Mironov and V.A. Zarubin, who noticed the creative approach and extraordinary thinking of their student and, together with their parents, insisted on continuing their studies. After leaving school, Leonid Innokentyevich entered the Irkutsk Medical Institute, with which his whole future life would be connected.The formation of Leonid Innokent'evich as a scientist-physiologist began with a student scientific circle, in which he came from the first year, having passed competitive tests, since the circle was very popular. His first teachers were A.I. Nikitin, V.L. Yaroslavtsev, P.N. Orlov. During the years of study, Leonid Innokent'evich confidently mastered the surgical technique in experimental physiology, worked in the vivarium and laboratory-operating room, participated in the research work "Transmeridian desynchronosis", in conferences of various levels.The talented student was noted by the university teachers, and after graduating from the Faculty of Dentistry of the Irkutsk Medical Institute in 1965, he was offered to continue his postgraduate studies at the Department of Normal Physiology. The main scientific problem of the department in the 60s of the XX century was the physiology and pathology of the digestive system. Leonid Innokent'evich's Ph.D. thesis was devoted to the study of the mechanisms of conjugation of the secretory activity of the stomach and energy metabolism in the experiment. The dissertation was completed in 2.5 years and successfully defended in 1969.Leonid Innokent'evich went all the way from a graduate student to a professor and head of the Department of Normal Physiology, was the Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Dentistry. He left the walls of his native university only once, when from 1978 to 1981 he taught in Conakry, the capital of the People's Revolutionary Republic of Guinea. Leonid Innokentievich served as the head of the Department of Fundamental Disciplines and has always enjoyed well-deserved respect among students and colleagues from different countries. Teaching students, giving lectures, methodical work in this troubled country in those years, was conducted in French, which Leonid Innokent'evich was fluent in. During the years of work in Guinea, he published 2 volumes of textbooks, scientific articles that have not lost their relevance to this day. For work with foreign students, Leonid Innokent'evich was awarded Certificates of Honor from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Health of the USSR and the USSR Embassy in the People's Revolutionary Republic of Guinea.Returning to Alma Mater, Leonid Innokentievich continued to collect materials for his doctoral dissertation, and in 1992 at the Institute of Normal Physiology. PC. Anokhin RAMS in Moscow successfully defended his doctoral dissertation "Central and peripheral mechanisms of adaptation of the organism under the influence of aromatic carbohydrates." In 1993, he received the academic title of professor, and from 1994 to 2013 he headed the Department of Normal Physiology and prepared 8 candidates and 5 doctors of science during this time.Leonid Innokentievich Korytov – scientific adviser of the complex scientific problem “Systemic mechanisms of stress and ways of its correction”, member of the specialized dissertation council at the Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution “Scientific Center for Family Health and Human Reproduction”, specializing in Pathological Physiology. Since 1998 he has been a corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of the Higher School.Over the years of his work, he published 267 scientific papers, published 2 monographs and 1 textbook in French, received 5 patents for inventions and rationalization proposals.Leonid Innokentievich is an experienced teacher with more than 50 years of experience, who lectures interestingly and at a high professional level, conducts classes, and continues to engage in educational and methodological work.
