In recent years, the department has intensified work on academic mobility. Employees of the department, online and offline, conducted lectures and practical classes in physiology with students of the Bashkir State Medical University. Over the past years, students of NJSC “WKMU” have been given lectures remotely by invited foreign teachers: from Kaunas (Lithuania), Moscow (RF), Ufa (Bashkortostan), Orenburg (RF). The department actively cooperates in the educational process with medical universities in Kazakhstan.

In 2021, the department organized and held an international conference on the topic: “Modern medicine: a new approach and current research” among medical educational institutions of Kazakhstan, near and far abroad, dedicated to World Osteoporosis Day. During the conference, master classes were held on the topics: “How to write an abstract for a dissertation”, “Electronic resources to help medical education and science”.

 

 

More than 150 scientific and methodological developments (monographs, methodological recommendations, manuals), articles and theses in collections and indexed journals have been published.
