They managed to outperform representatives of medical universities

Students of the Ural Federal University participated in the International Olympiad in Normal Human Anatomy held at the First St. Petersburg State Medical University. The Olympiad was attended by 180 representatives of 36 Russian universities.

Students of the Institute of Natural Sciences and Mathematics represented the Ural Federal University. They study in the specialties "Medical Biochemistry" and "Medical Biophysics": Sofia Fartushnova, Yulia Kildina, Polina Makarova (2nd year), Daria Lukiyanova (4th year), Victoria Podtishkina and Daria Polyanina (6th year).

Students of UrFU participated in the Anatomy Olympiad for the first time and achieved high results in all competitions. Darya Polyanina received the second diploma in individual competition for winning the practical competition. Darya Lukiyanova received the third diploma in individual competition for winning the theoretical competition.

“This was my first exciting experience participating in an in-person international medical Olympiad! Before that, I had only tried online formats. My team and I had been preparing for several months, actively reviewing all anatomy sections in theory and practice with our teachers. It was difficult to remember all the small anatomical details in the 4th year and even in the middle of the session. Still, it was fascinating and useful for any medical student”, said Daria Lukiyanova.

Previous students of the Medical Biochemistry program successfully participated in the All-Russian Student Olympiad in Laboratory Medicine. Anastasia Glukhova took the 1st place in the nomination "The Future of Laboratory Medicine", and Anton Shayuk took the 3rd place.
