An important part of the programme was teamwork with participants from different countries, which gave the students an opportunity to share experiences and compare the medical education systems and healthcare systems of their respective countries. In particular, the participants worked together to create video materials about medicine and healthcare systems in their home countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\" wp-block-image size-large eplus-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"613\" height=\"460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image003-2-613x460.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-190162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image003-2-613x460.jpg 613w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image003-2-180x135.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image003-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image003-2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image003-2.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 613px) 100vw, 613px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-paragraph\">The second week of the Summer School, <strong>\u201cResearch Skills,\u201d<\/strong> focused on developing research skills and gaining practical experience in scientific work. The students learned more about the principles of conducting medical research and practised formulating research questions. Practical laboratory sessions played a particularly important role in the programme. During these sessions, the participants worked with laboratory equipment and completed practical tasks, including activities designed to deepen their knowledge of microbiology. The students also discussed environmental sustainability in healthcare, participated in Team-Based Learning activities, and improved their academic writing skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\" wp-block-image size-large eplus-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"613\" height=\"460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image004-613x460.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-190163\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image004-613x460.jpg 613w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image004-180x135.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image004-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image004-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image004.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 613px) 100vw, 613px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-paragraph\">The third week of the Summer School was devoted to the development of <strong>\u201cClinical Skills.\u201d<\/strong> A significant part of the training took place in a simulation centre, where the students had the opportunity to experience clinical practice as realistically as possible. During sessions with simulated patients, the participants independently took medical histories, assessed patients\u2019 conditions, determined appropriate further management, and practised professional communication skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-paragraph\">Some practical sessions focused on basic physical examination. The students learned how to measure blood pressure correctly, assess neurological status, and examine deep tendon reflexes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-paragraph\">In specially equipped simulation rooms, the participants also developed a range of essential practical skills required in medical practice. Under the guidance of instructors, they practised catheter insertion, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, methods of temporary haemorrhage control, and first-aid algorithms for emergency situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\" wp-block-image size-large eplus-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"613\" height=\"460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image005-1-613x460.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-190164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image005-1-613x460.jpg 613w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image005-1-180x135.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image005-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image005-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.tdmu.edu.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image005-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 613px) 100vw, 613px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-paragraph\">The final day of the Summer School was dedicated to the presentation and assessment of group projects in the form of posters addressing topics related to the principles of social responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-paragraph\">The TNMU participants express their sincere gratitude to the University of Manchester, particularly Dr Hazel England and the entire University of Manchester team, for the invaluable experience of scientific, social, and intercultural exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Twinning Partnership Programme<\/strong> was initiated by the <strong>Cormack Consultancy Group<\/strong> with the support of the <strong>President of Ukraine\u2019s Fund<\/strong> and <strong>UK Universities<\/strong>.
