Clinical Case Reviews at the Department of Clinical Pharmacology: Learning from Real Cases!
Students of the International Institute of Medical Education and Cooperation participate in clinical reviews of patients as part of a student scientific group meeting.
The Department of Clinical Pharmacology has once again proven that the best way to learn is through hands-on experience. On October 22, 2025 another meeting of our student club was held, entirely dedicated to working with patients.
In the format of a clinical case review, students explored current issues of prescribing antithrombotic drugs, moving from theory to a real patient.
How did it go?
The students split into small groups and went to the departments of City Clinical Hospital No. 3 to perform patient work-ups and personally delve into the medical histories of patients receiving antithrombotic therapy. After that, each group presented their case for a joint professional discussion with our supervisor, Natalia Yuryevna Goncharova.
The analysis of a complex clinical case was prepared and brilliantly presented by MIMOS students Meretova Merjen from Turkmenistan and Hassine Nourennajaa from Tunis. The topic of their presentation — "Pulmonary Thromboembolism Associated with Dermatomyositis" — clearly demonstrated the complexity of medical decision-making. Their in-depth preparation and clear analysis formed the basis for a lively discussion on treatment choices, risk balance, and management of patients with comorbid conditions.
This meeting once again confirmed that the clinical case reviews regularly conducted by our department are an invaluable bridge between academic knowledge and future professional practice.
We thank all participants and especially our colleagues from MIMOS for the excellent work! We look forward to seeing everyone at the next reviews!

The training course on “Clinical Pharmacology” and “Current Issues of Rational Pharmacotherapy in the Work of General Practitioner” using a mediator language for the students of International Institute of Medical Education and Cooperation is completed at the Department of Clinical Pharmacology. The study was difficult; however all the students noted the importance of the subject, its practical focus and demand in future clinical activities. The teachers on their part tried to take an individual approach to the educational process taking into account the difficulties of teaching in English, to use examples from clinical practice for a better understanding of the subject and based their explanations on modern international clinical recommendations.
The department staff hope that next year communication with students from other countries will also be productive, full of new ideas and intercultural exchange.
Feedback from our students:
Subject: Clinical Pharmacology: A Cornerstone of Excellence in Our Future Professions
Dear Newsline Readers,
The clinical pharmacology classes we are currently taking are shaping our future professions in profound ways. This curriculum delves deeply into the intricate world of drug interactions, evidence-based medicine, and drug safety. These insights are not just academic exercises; they are the foundation for providing exceptional patient care.
By understanding the mechanisms of drug action and the potential for adverse effects, we are empowered to make informed decisions about medication choices, dosages, and monitoring strategies. We learn to critically evaluate research, ensuring that our treatment plans are based on the best available evidence. And through the lens of clinical pharmacology, we gain a deeper appreciation for the ethical and safety considerations that are paramount in our field.
As we move forward in our careers, we will carry these invaluable lessons with us, always striving for excellence in our practice.
Sincerely,
AYUSH
