«Чем больше студенты изучают, посещают конференции и вовлекаются в работу, тем качественнее формируется профессиональное мышление. Наука и медицина не существуют отдельно — именно научный поиск помогает улучшать жизнь пациентов», — отметила Марина Владимировна Костюченко, профессор кафедры медицины катастроф ИПМ.

"Scientific lines": where future doctors become researchers

Pirogov University summed up the results of the selection stage of the Interdisciplinary Clinical School of a young scientist "Scientific lines". The project helps students take their first steps in science.

Participants acquire research skills, choose scientific topics, find mentors, and try themselves as scientists. The school combines three key elements of professional growth: practice, professional environment and public speaking.

In 2026, the Scientific Lines project received the status of advanced training courses. In the new season, 153 students joined him, 104 of them completed the lecture stage, and 41 participants will continue to work with scientific supervisors.

The main part of the meeting was an open panel discussion with experts about the scientific path, motivation and the first difficulties in research activities.

"The more students study, attend conferences and get involved in work, the better professional thinking is formed. Science and medicine do not exist separately — it is the scientific search that helps to improve the lives of patients," said Marina Kostyuchenko, Professor at the Department of Disaster Medicine at IPM.

There was also a Mentor's Lounge, a live communication format where students could ask questions to experts and discuss career opportunities in science and the clinic. Scientific Lines is a real entry point into science for a new generation of doctors who want to combine clinical practice and research.
