The student scientific society circle of the department was created in 1979, and up to now the work of the circle has been traditionally continued by the staff.
An integral part of the educational process in the activities of the department is the participation of students in the work of the scientific circle. The materials of their research work are regularly published in domestic and foreign literature, every year young scientists give lectures at conferences, win prizes, which allows such students to enter the master's program after graduation, and in the subsequent period to the doctoral program and allows recommending for internships abroad.
The participants of the circle also enriched their practical knowledge by examining patients in the 1st and 2nd children's departments of the Samarkand city branch of the Russian Scientific Center for Emergency Medicine.
In particular, in the 2024-2025 academic year, 25 undergraduate students (including 3 from foreign faculties in the MD direction), 6 master's degree residents were accepted as members of the student scientific society "Young Pediatricians" at the department, and all of them actively participate in the club meetings held at the department. Each student is assigned to the teachers of the department in their specialty and conducts scientific research in accordance with the "teacher-student" tradition.
The heads of the student scientific society, Associate Professor of the Department Lim M.V., PhD. Kardyavova G.A. meetings were held every Saturday of the week under his leadership, and in total 22 meetings of the scientific circle were held during the past period.

Master classes are held on the preparation of scientific articles and theses, their types, components, rules for working with scientific literature, methods of collecting materials and working on them, results and discussion of research, rules for their publication.
