On October 15, 2025, coinciding with the Day of Pharmaceutical and Microbiological Industry Workers, a dialogue platform titled "History of Pharmaceutical Production in the Republic of Belarus" was held in the conference hall of the morphological building at VSMU. The event was organized within the framework of the scientific and educational cluster "Medicine and Pharmacy - Innovative Projects" and was attended by more than a hundred participants.

Denis Lits, Vice-rector     of International Affairs and Organizational and Legal Work, welcomed the attendees with a speech. He congratulated the audience on their professional holiday and expressed confidence that the dialogue platform would serve as a productive forum for discussion.

The event was attended by representatives from the Dean's Office of the Pharmaceutical Faculty, students, university staff, employees of RUE "Belmedpreparaty", and Vitebsk UE "Pharmacy". Additionally, representatives of the Borisov Plant of Medical Preparations joined via video link.

During the discussion, second- and fourth-year students of the Pharmaceutical Faculty shared insights on the history of Belarus's prominent pharmaceutical companies — RUE "Belmedpreparaty" and the Borisov Plant of Medical Preparations — as well as the current state of the pharmaceutical industry in the country.

Of particular interest were reports on notable personalities who significantly contributed to the development of Belarus's pharmaceutical industry, including Valery Minovich Tsarenkov, Vladimir Nikolaevich Lopatin, and Vasily Kononovich Yashchenko, the first Doctor of Pharmaceutical Sciences in Belarus.

The dialogue proved to be informative and engaging, arousing widespread interest among the audience.
