The opening ceremony of the 8th International Conference on Medical Education (ICME) was held in Baku on 9 October.
The event is being held for the first time in Azerbaijan and is jointly organized by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Azerbaijan Medical University (AMU) and Riphah International University of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Health Minister Teymur Musayev spoke about the work being done in the Republic of Azerbaijan to bring medical education in line with global standards, train highly qualified medical personnel and expand ties with prestigious higher medical schools of the world. Noting that the event will hold relevant discussions on future directions of medical education, the Health Minister also wished success to the conference.
