Krylova is the creator of the field of "social metaanthropology," which applies the main principles of metaanthropology as a theory of ordinary, extreme, and transcendent existence of human beings to society. Social metaanthropology explores the possibilities of social systems going beyond the boundaries of ordinariness into extreme and transcendent dimensions, enabling the understanding and analysis of social processes during periods of crises and transformations, and making productive futurological forecasts. She is the organizer of the annual International Scientific and Practical Conference of the Department of Philosophical Anthropology at the M.P. Dragomanov National Pedagogical University. She is also a co-organizer and active participant in the methodological seminar "Philosophical Anthropology as Metaanthropology" at the G. Skovoroda Institute of Philosophy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Her areas of expertise include philosophical anthropology, metaanthropology, postanthropology, social metaanthropology, social philosophy, ethics, aesthetics, philosophy of education, philosophy of psychoanalysis, philosophy of existence, philosophy of gender, and androgynous analysis.

Krylova's research focuses on the phenomenon of personal immortality as an ethical-existential problem, sociocultural and gender aspects of the beauty phenomenon in the social existence of human beings, and psychoanalytic and existential foundations of male and female relationships.

In addition to her academic work, Krylova has also pursued literary and artistic endeavors. In collaboration with Nazip Khamitov, she has written philosophical novels such as "The Secret of the Hobbit" and "The Magic Book" under the pseudonyms "Nez and Lana Svetlye".
