Aidana Tanbai


I have been interested in medicine since high school, and now I have a great opportunity here at Nazarbayev University to study fundamental biomedical sciences in order to enter the medical school in the future. One of the goals I have for the future is to become a practicing physician as well as scientist.
I participate in several student clubs such as Pre-med club, NU Biomed club and dancing club (ensemble). I am a moderator at NU BioMed. Recently, I visited primary school children and gave a presentation on “Oral health care” on behalf of the pre-med club. In addition I had a chance to volunteer at the Emergency Department as a nurse assistant, where I better understood the reality behind a medical worker’s job. 

My hobbies are reading books, playing togyz kumalak (kazakh national chess-like game), dancing and skating.
