Together, we enjoyed the achievements of our students at international Olympiads, conferences, and sports competitions.

On these magical pre-New Year days, when it is finally snowing outside and the scent of tangerines and pine fills the air, I want to express my sincere gratitude to you. Thank you for every day of your work, for your dedication to our university, for the smiles on patients' faces, and for believing that medicine is not just a profession, but a calling to save and inspire.

May the New Year open to you the doors to a world of amazing opportunities! I wish you the best of health and strength. May your home be a place of safety, filled with family comfort and warmth.

I wish the coming New Year brings you remarkable professional achievements, and may your ideas and accomplishments help to change the world for the better.
