Biography

Graduated from high school in Donetsk, Ukraine (1966) and from Kyiv Medical University, Ukraine (1972) as a medical doctor, PhD (1977), Doctor of Sciences (1989).[1]

Worked at the Institute for Occupational Health of Ukrainian Academy of Medical Science (1972-1995) in scientific field of psychophysiology of mental labor. He created original methods, designed and implemented self-educating adaptive computer-based systems for individual psychophysiological monitoring and optimization of current professional reliability and mental capacity of operators at nuclear and heat power plants, major electric grids and cosmonautics.[2][3]

In 1989-1995 he headed the scientific program for psychophysiological grounds of the professional reliability in operative personnel of the Ministry of Energetics of Ukraine.[4] In 2002-2010 he participated in creation of branch legislation for implementation of psychophysiological systems which support professional reliability and high efficiency of operative personnel.[5]

Together with Dr. Alexander Smikodub Dr. Alexey Karpenko founded the Embryonic Tissue Center “EmCell” (1994) and was General Director (CEO) of “EmCell” during 1994-2001. In 1994, “EmCell” jointly with National Medical University and Administration of the city of Kyiv founded the world's first clinic totally dedicated to clinical application of fetal stem cell transplantations (Cell Therapy Clinic “EmCell”).

When Dr. Alexey Karpenko was CEO “EmCell” was granted letters of patent for new methods of treatment with the use of Fetal Stem Cell Transplantations by Ukraine, the US, Netherlands, Greece and Russia[6][7][8] and took part in dozens of international congresses and conferences with contributions regarding clinical use of Fetal Stem Cell Transplantations.[9]

Media paid attention to the pioneering work of "Emcell" with wide range of appreciation and critic.[10] [11]

At this time, Center "EmCell" in cooperation with six leading research institutes and universities of Ukraine developed legal grounds for practical clinical use of Fetal Stem Cell Transplantation, which were duly approved by Ministry of Health and by Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine (1999-2001).

In 2001, Alexey Karpenko left “EmCell” to create and to lead the Department for Fetal Stem Cell Transplantation at the Coordinating Center for Transplantation of Organs, Tissues and Cells of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine (2001-2003).[12][13]

Starting from 2010, Dr. Alexey Karpenko is the Honorary Scientific Director of the Center “EmCell”.
