Lecturers of the Engineering and Technology University of Turkmenistan completed internship in Japan

From October 1 to 17, lecturers of the Oguz Han Engineering and Technology University of Turkmenistan, Lale Orazgulyyeva and Didar Mamedov, participated in a professional development program at the Innovation Center of NanoMedicine (ICONM), located in the Japanese city of Kawasaki.

The visit of the Turkmen educators to Japan was organized in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding signed between the Oguz Han Engineering and Technology University of Turkmenistan and the Innovation Center of NanoMedicine of the Kawasaki Institute of Industrial Promotion (Japan).

The purpose of the study trip was to become acquainted with the scientific research of leading scientists, to gain advanced knowledge and scientific experience, to enhance the professional qualifications of the faculty, to exchange ideas for the implementation of joint scientific projects, to expand international cooperation in the higher education system of Turkmenistan.

During the internship, the Turkmen professors conducted practical research focused on the synthesis of polymer nanocapsules, the study of drug delivery mechanisms at the cellular level, as well as the interaction of nanoparticles with the immune system.

Participation in the educational program enabled the Turkmen lecturers to master the latest methods in modern science, become familiar with advanced scientific approaches, and exchange experiences with Japanese specialists.

Thanks to the comprehensive program of scientific and educational activities during the internship, the young educators from Turkmenistan significantly deepened their professional skills in the field of nanomedicine at ICONM — one of the world’s leading research centers engaged in the development of nanotechnologies, nanomedicine and nanomaterials. Among the key areas of ICONM’s work are the development of modern nanomaterials and the creation of effective strategies for cancer treatment using such materials.

Nanomedicine is currently one of the most rapidly developing fields of global science. This area opens new opportunities for increasing the effectiveness of pharmaceuticals at the molecular level, as well as for developing more precise and effective methods of treating infectious and oncological diseases. The biocompatibility of nanomaterials, their ability to deliver drugs in a targeted manner and act exclusively on affected cells, is driving revolutionary changes in modern medicine.

The active development of international educational cooperation allows young scientists from Turkmenistan to expand their knowledge and gain advanced experience in this promising field. The participation of Turkmen teachers in special professional development programs hosted by such reputable scientific centers as ICONM contributes to the integration of the country’s young scientists into the global scientific community.

Such internships not only contribute to the expansion of scientific knowledge and experience but also lay the foundation for new projects in the field of nanomedicine and biotechnology in Turkmenistan, opening up prospects for the development of the national pharmaceutical and medical industries.
