Medical Science: On the Verge of Discoveries for a New Quality of Life

Healthy Life Forum Biomedical science, with its long-standing unique potential, is closely intertwined with global trends in the development of new technologies and is the flagship of innovative developments that could take practical healthcare to an entirely new level. The most important trend is the establishment of a single ecosystem of medical science for practical research in creating new drugs, medical devices, and methods of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases and medical rehabilitation. To this end, it is crucial to create a comfortable unified scientific environment for to scientists and medical researchers in the CIS to share experience and implement joint projects. The current geopolitical situation has made these goals even more important, as self-sufficiency and technological independence are becoming key factors for the development of CIS countries. How should the state, universities, and industrial partners integrate so that the results of innovative scientific research in biomedicine are effectively transmitted into practical healthcare? What potential do Russia and CIS countries have to introduce new import-substituting technologies? How can we form a single platform and create comfortable conditions for scientists in medical sciences in the CIS?

Modern Approaches to Combatting Cardiovascular Diseases

Healthy Life Forum Today, all CIS countries are deemed to have a high cardiovascular risk. Circulatory system diseases are among the leaders in morbidity and mortality, and cause significant direct and indirect economic losses. The historical similarities of the healthcare systems of CIS countries make it easy to exchange new organizational approaches to reducing mortality and enrich each other with best practices. What role does the WHO play in intercountry cooperation, and what is the role of the Russia’s WHO collaborating centres in organizing cardiovascular care? What solutions can be used to combat training problems? What issues and decisions are most long overdue in the introduction of clinical guidelines? What examples of best practices are of most interest in terms of collaboration in implementing strategies to reduce mortality from circulatory diseases, identifying high-risk patients, and managing risk? What practices can be used in the CIS to integrate patient management punctures between Russia and the CIS countries, create joint educational programmes and standards, and implement common scientific projects?

How to Learn to Be Healthy: From Lifestyle to Healthy Technologies

Healthy Life Forum A healthy lifestyle is nothing more than habits and actions that help strengthen your immunity, increase your physical strength, and eliminate factors that negatively affect your well-being and body as a whole. There is no clear definition of what a healthy lifestyle is yet because everyone has their own understanding of what a healthy lifestyle is. And this is surprising since the concept came into our everyday life more than 50 years ago. Back then, doctors began to note genetic predispositions to certain diseases and look for ways to prevent them by following certain rules. From a medical point of view, a healthy lifestyle is what allows people to preserve their health and reduce the risk of non-communicable diseases – primarily heart attacks and strokes. However, in addition to this, there is a clear link today between decreased reproductive ability and how healthy people’s lifestyles are. Today, the World Health Organization defines health as a state of absolute mental, physical, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.

A Unified Approach to Interagency Cooperation in Health Protection

Healthy Life Forum The healthcare and social protection system offers a wide range of services for citizens today. One of the current trends in modern society is to improve each individual’s quality of life by expanding cooperation between the executive authorities and public organizations and charitable foundations. In order to intensify cooperation, it is crucial to engage in a dialogue and align processes of interagency interaction, including charitable foundations and public organizations, into a unified approach to work on complex cases as full-fledged partners both at the federal and international levels. There are already numerous examples of successful joint projects among public associations, business, the state, and medical organizations, in particular when it comes to providing assistance to seriously ill children, which are solely based on the provision of timely information about what kind of help is needed and to what extent. What needs to be done to fully include public organizations, businesses, and charitable foundations in a system with a human focus to work on complex cases? What best practices of such interaction already exist in the Russian regions and what international experience is there in this regard? What benefits can the system obtain overall from the effective cooperation of public and charitable organizations with the executive authorities? What digital technologies could facilitate such interaction?

Drug Security: A Strategic Course for Cooperation

Healthy Life Forum Providing patients with affordable high-quality drugs is one of the key priorities for developing the healthcare sector in all CIS countries and is a top priority for Russia. The Russian pharmaceutical and medical industries have demonstrated their resilience and readiness to promptly respond to global challenges, the ability to ensure the uninterrupted supply of strategically important drugs and medical devices, as well as remain independent of imports and competitive on foreign markets. Today, the Russian drug policy is focused on creating new drug supply strategies and developing long-term partnerships with CIS member states to preserve people’s health and increase their life expectancy. What current challenges does the drug supply system face today? How can we promote the sustainability of drug supply and ensure the effective development of import substitution? What needs to be done to supply the market with more innovative medicines in the current conditions and actively license pharmaceutical production according to GMP standards?
