My suggestion is rather brutal.  That is to create a separate document 
for the own-publications list, process it with command-line 
applications (latex and biblatex) to get a final .tex file, and then 
drop its essential content into the dissertation file.


I'm sorry that I don't have a happier solution.

Biblatex does not allow to mix different styles in a document.

I would suggest that you compile the publication list on your own and
adapt the pagination via \setcounter{page}{}

Polina,

  I doubt there is a 'proper' way, only one acceeptable to your committee.

  Have you considered putting your publication list as a separate,
un-numbered chapter, or an appendix? Those would be what I would try, but
I've not had an need to use the master-child document format (my publishedf
book was one document with a single reference appendix).

  Others likely have other solutions which better fit your needs and your
committee's preference.

Good luck defending,

Rich
