Abstract
Founded in 1975, the Department of Oncology and Clinical Morphology at the Bashkir State Medical University has been actively engaged in educational, research, and clinical activities for 50 years. The primary focus involves training highly qualified specialists and implementing the latest advances for diagnosing, treating, and preventing cancer. Our department has guided the defense of more than 150 candidate theses and 20 doctoral theses, published over 2000 papers, and obtained over 100 patents, including international ones. Our educational materials are used by medical schools in Russia and around the world. The total print run of publications exceeds several thousand copies. Basic research and scientific exchange are supported through collaboration with leading global research and educational centers. Advanced clinical centers effectively integrate scientific advances into healthcare services by implementing innovative technologies. Three priorities include improved diagnostics, personalized treatment, and cancer prevention. Key areas of research include biological profiling of tumors, primary cancer prevention (cancer without tumors), improved diagnosis, and greater access to personalized therapies. The goal is to apply scientific advances to real-world practice and train specialists to address current challenges in cancer treatment.
