Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Kazakhstan has registered 760 educational programs of higher and postgraduate education, including four innovative ones: “Kinesitherapy”, “IT Medicine”, “Pharmacy and Biotechnology of Immunobiological Preparations”, and “Nursing Science”. This is reported by the Official Information Source of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
Practical training for doctors is being enhanced in the country. In particular, a model based on basic medical education, specialized training, and an advanced internship is being implemented. This methodology complies with the standards of the World Federation for Medical Education and European countries.
Practical training for future doctors is also being enhanced: equipment standards for simulation centers are being introduced, and their national network is being formed.
AI technologies are also being integrated into healthcare. At Al-Farabi Kazakh National University (KazNU), an AI in medicine center was opened. The university developed the monograph “AI in Medicine”.
Kazakhstani developers are preparing an AI model that will analyze city-scale medical data — consultations, diagnoses, epidemiological situations. The new tool will aid in forecasting, risk identification, and improve management in the healthcare system.
