Assoc. Prof. Dr. Marina I. Arleevskaya , Ph.D., is a Senior Research Scientist, Group Leader at the Central Research Laboratory of the Kazan State Medical Academy, Associate Professor of the Department of Fundamental Foundations of Clinical Medicine at Kazan (Volga Region) Federal University, and a clinical rheumatologist of the superior qualification category. She graduated from the Kazan State Medical Institute and earned her Ph.D. in 1994, subsequently building a distinguished career spanning immunology, rheumatology, genetics, epigenetics, and environmental medicine. Her pioneering research focuses on identifying predictors of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), unraveling gene–environment interactions in autoimmune diseases, and developing risk assessment algorithms for RA onset using large, long-term patient cohorts. Dr. Arleevskaya has led and contributed to numerous national and international collaborations, with research funded by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research and the Russian Science Foundation. She has authored more than 40 peer-reviewed publications, a monograph, and a patent, with her work cited 622 times across 524 documents, yielding an h-index of 15. Her contributions to understanding the interplay between genetic, infectious, and environmental triggers in autoimmune pathogenesis have established her as a leading figure in translational rheumatology and immunology.
