During training, the medical resident has worked in a specialised endocrinology department or consulting room, other specialised departments (during the study course) and consulting rooms, under the supervision of an endocrinologist who is qualified to train. The medical resident has regularly participated in resident seminars and lectures, prepares presentations at clinic morning sessions, has prepared at least 4 clinical cases each year (submitted to the head of the RSU Department of Internal Diseases) and has participated in the student training process. To understand in depth and analyse the role of hormones in normal development and ageing of the body, to understand the pathology of different endocrine glands, their diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Demonstrates an in-depth and expanded knowledge and understanding of medicine in general, but in endocrinology they meet the requirements of the relevant specialty and are at the forefront of the scientific and professional field, providing a basis for creative thinking in clinical practice and partly in research, and the ability to work in interdisciplinary contact. To recognise and describe different endocrine problems in humans. To define possible endocrine pathology, systematise diagnostic examinations and organise specific treatment.
