The Department was established in 1988. From 1988 till 2017 the Department was headed by Dr. Heorhiy Babiychuk, Winner of the Prize of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR in the field of physiology and theoretical medicine named after O.O. Bogomolets (1993)." From June 2017 the Department is headed by Dr. Vladislav Babiychuk.

SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS
- Study of the mechanisms of effect of rhythmic extreme cooling exposure (at -120°C), as well as in combination with introducing cryopreserved nucleated cord blood cells, on the structural and functional state of the regulatory systems of animals in norm and under several pathological conditions.
- Elucidation of the characteristics of cold exposures of different intensity and modality on the state of functional systems of the animal body and using of these characteristics for improvement of the treatment of several pathological conditions.
- Study of the peculiarities of physiological responses of the body to cold exposures; as well as the state of an organism under the natural hypometabolic states (hibernation); the combined effects of long-term stays at low temperatures, different light regimens and enclosed space (in the Ukrainian Antarctic Akademik Vernadsky station) and the role of sleep-wake cycle environmental factors.
