Science club
At the Department of Propaedeutics of Internal Diseases, a student scientific club (SSC) has been established. Each academic year, students actively participate in scientific research.
All department staff provide comprehensive support to students in conducting their research. Each SSC participant is assigned a specific research direction, and the work is carried out under the guidance of scientific mentors.
Research activities are overseen by the Head of the Department, Associate Professor S.H. Yarmukhamedova, as well as the department assistants:

The department instructors provide students with comprehensive and close support in organizing and conducting scientific research.
Meetings of the Student Scientific Club (SSC) are held once every two weeks, on Saturdays. During these meetings, issues related to the implementation of the research work plan are discussed, and the obtained data and research results are analyzed. Each meeting is conducted according to an approved agenda.
SSC members have published over 100 scientific works, including articles and abstracts, both at the national and international levels. All published materials are recognized with certificates and diplomas.

For members of the SSS, patient curation (clinical case management) in the hospital ward is also organized alongside our teachers, allowing each student to gain more practical knowledge about a specific disease.
At each SSS meeting, our students present and explain their assigned topics using their own presentations. In case of complex or unclear points, the department's faculty members provide students with comprehensive explanations.

Members of the SSS actively participate in international olympiads organized by the Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education of the Republic of Uzbekistan and CIS countries, winning prestigious places.
