I’m an undergraduate student and my major is Biomedicine. My interests are focused on the science behind the various kinds of diseases and pathologies. Our knowledge is still lacking many important concepts, like treatment of autoimmune conditions, which can be grasped and developed in the near future for the benefit of numerous people.

I finished Biology and Chemistry University Preparatory Course developed by the University College London at Nazarbayev University, here in Astana. Then I decided to concentrate on medicine and research joining the School of Science and Technology at Nazarbayev University, as well. I consider getting into medical school after graduating from the BSc program.

Currently I am working in Dr. Charles Gilman’s laboratory, which focuses on various issues of cerebral ischemia (stroke) such as mechanisms of neural cell death and proliferation and improvement of long term outcomes of patients who have suffered cerebral ischemia etc. Working in the lab is an outstanding experience for me; it helps to develop practical and intellectual skills of doing real-life science, working and cooperating with the people of different backgrounds from different parts of the world.
