The InteRussia Medical Fellowship Opens at Sechenov University ✨

On 19 May, Sechenov University hosted the official opening ceremony of the InteRussia Fellowship in Medicine at the Museum of Medical History, welcoming young medical professionals from Argentina, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Kyrgyzstan, Malaysia, Morocco, Serbia, Turkmenistan, and Vietnam.

The participants were addressed by:

📌 Ruslan Emirveliev, Head of International Office
📌 Lyana Dymova, Academic Programs Coordinator at the Gorchakov Fund

Lyana Dymova highlighted the importance of international professional ties:

«This fellowship is designed to be more than just a training program. For these weeks, you are not guests, you are colleagues. And when you return to your home countries you will carry not just knowledge, but the most precious thing — new friends and colleagues from all over the world, lasting professional cooperation and the possibility to exchange the expertise with your peers from other countries. You will become, in essence, informal ambassadors of the scientific and humanitarian ties between our nations».

Ruslan Emirveliev noted:

«We appreciate your interest in this program. International academic exchange plays a crucial role today, as it creates valuable opportunities for collaboration between participants. In the field of medicine maintaining international contacts is especially important, as it enables the exchange of knowledge and best practices. I wish all of you a productive stay at the university».

Over the coming week, participants will immerse in educational and clinical activities under the guidance of leading Russian medical professionals, gaining practical experience and building international professional connections.

The InteRussia program in medicine is implemented by the Mezhdunarodniki Autonomous Non-Profit Organisation in cooperation with the Gorchakov Fund and Sechenov University, with grant support from the Presidential Grants Foundation.

How does diplomatic dialogue work in practice ❓

For InteRussia fellows, direct conversations with senior officials are an essential part of the program. These meetings give participants an opportunity to better understand how international priorities are discussed and advanced in practice.

🔷 On May 15, participants of the InteRussia Fellowship for Journalists met with Deputy Foreign Minister Georgy Borisenko at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation.

The discussion focused on Russia’s relations with the Arab world. Borisenko spoke about the ties between Russia and Arab countries, emphasizing the shared interests and Russia’s commitment to supporting its Arab partners.

The fellows also discussed:
📎Russia’s relations with their home countries
📎Current international issues in the region

A valuable chance to engage directly with diplomacy beyond official statements.
