What is Student`s Scientific Activity?

Student`s Scientific Activity is an essential part of the education process of future doctors at Jessenius Faculty of Medicine in Martin. Student`s Scientific conference was established in 1972. First written mention of conference proceedings is from 1976. It was already the 5th conference. There are no programs and abstracts from previous conferences.
