As part of international cooperation, significant events in the medical field are being implemented at Bukhara State Medical Institute. Notably, experts from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University and the Shanghai Academy of China visited Bukhara.

Renowned nephrology professors — Dr. Ronggou Fu, Dr. Chen Zhao, Dr. Xu Jing, Dr. Liu Guo, Dr. Wei Shizhuo, and Dr. Yu Xiaoyong — conducted masterclasses at the Department of Hematology and Clinical Laboratory Diagnostics, sharing their knowledge and experience with master’s students and clinical residents.

In addition, the guests performed free surgical procedures on patients suffering from nephrological diseases at the institute’s clinic. Specifically, fistula placement surgeries were carried out for patients undergoing regular dialysis. Using Doppler ultrasound, the veins were assessed, problem areas identified, and anastomoses (fistulas) were created between healthy veins.

Such surgeries are crucial in addressing vascular complications that arise after long-term dialysis.

During the visit, representatives of the Shaanxi Provincial Department of Science and Technology — including Yang Shihong, Zhao Yijun, Zhang Siqi, and Dr. Zhang Pengbo — signed memoranda aimed at strengthening medical cooperation between Bukhara and China.

The visitors also highly evaluated the institute’s smart greenhouse, clinic, and simulation center.

It is worth noting that Bukhara State Medical Institute currently collaborates with over 50 prestigious international universities and scientific centers. In April of this year, a Chinese Language Center was established at the institute, where students and faculty members have begun studying the language.
