Scientific Laboratories of the Institute of Pediatrics: Achievements and Prospects

The review is devoted to the 100-year history of the Institute of Pediatrics, mainly there are analyzed the activities of scientific laboratories and departments, the peculiarities of their reorganization in various historical periods, the contribution of scientists to the development of domestic pediatric science and established patterns essential for the formation of the national system of child health care.  The scientific achievements of the scientists of the Institute of Pediatrics were established to be noted by the Grants Committee under the President of the Russian Federation. On a competitive basis, the Institute of Pediatrics of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences is recognized as a leading scientific school, and its director, Academician M.Ya. Studenikin, as a the leader of the pediatric scientific school. Currently, the Institute of Pediatrics is the largest pediatric institution of the National Medical Research Center for Children’s Health of the Ministry of Health of Russia, has significant scientific potential, is able to ensure the children’s health care and create new generations of pediatricians on a modern scientific basis.
