On March 13, 2025, students of Medical Institute of Sumy State University had a unique opportunity to listen to a lecture by Professor of the University of Cambridge, Dr. Robert H. Whitaker.
In his report, he highlighted two important topics: «Heart development, common congenital heart defects» and «Blood supply to the of the gastrointestinal tract». The professor spoke in detail about embryonic development of the heart, the mechanisms of congenital pathologies, their impact on human health, and explained the peculiarities of blood supply to the digestive system.
The lecture aroused great interest among students and teachers. After the lecture, the students had the opportunity to ask the professor questions and receive detailed answers.
We thank Dr. Robert H. Whitaker for the opportunity to study anatomy in English, which not only contributes to the improvement of professional terminology, but also motivates students to study human anatomy more deeply!
