Dear colleagues, scientists, and passionate young researchers! I congratulate you on Belarusian Science Day!

For the team of Vitebsk State Medical University, this holiday is especially meaningful, as at VSMU, quality education, fundamental research, innovative developments, and practical healthcare are interconnected. We proudly continue the traditions established by our predecessors and every day contribute to the history of domestic medical science.

Today, VSMU is a modern scientific and educational hub where innovative ideas are born and brought to life. Our laboratories, clinical bases, and research schools serve as platforms for significant studies in diagnostics, treatment, and disease prevention. Thanks to your professionalism, determination, and dedication, we make a real contribution to improving the quality of life of Belarusian society and the development of healthcare in our country.

Special thanks go to our veterans, whose wisdom and experience form a reliable foundation, and to our young scientists – the future of the university – whose energy and fresh perspectives open new horizons.

I wish our friendly team at VSMU endless creative inspiration, bold scientific pursuits, and outstanding discoveries. May your projects receive recognition and support, and your research results find effective application.

Wishing you good health, well-being, confidence in your abilities, and new achievements for the good of Belarus!

Rector of the University, Doctor of Medical Sciences A.N. Chukanov

On January 22, 2026, a cooperation agreement was signed between Vitebsk State Medical University and Secondary School No. 6 of Rogachev.

As part of the implementation of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Belarus’s strategy to support young specialists, the administration of Vitebsk State Medical University conducts a systematic, ongoing dialogue with interns and young professionals working in healthcare institutions.

Participants of the project "Family and spiritual-moral traditions of Belarus" continue to study Belarusian traditions and introduce them to students of the Faculty Overseas Students Training. For example, on the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, students of VSMU went to fetch "Epiphany water" to explain to students from India and Lebanon the reasons why Belarusians collect water from natural sources and churches on this day, as well as the meaning and spiritual significance of the tradition.
