On April 22, a delegation led by Dr. Ennio Licheri, Vice President of the Italian Coordination of Emergency Medicine Residents (CoSMEU, Coordinamento Specializzandi in Medicina d'Emergenza-Urgenza), visited our university. Ms. Wang Yu, Director of the Office of International Cooperation and Exchanges, held a meeting with them regarding cooperation in the field of emergency medicine.
Ms. Wang extended a warm welcome to the delegation on behalf of the university. She introduced the university's general overview, disciplinary strengths and especially its clinical exchange programmes. She expressed her hope that CQMU and CoSMEU could explore cooperation in emergency medicine and strengthen mutual learning between China and Italy in areas such as emergency physician training, faculty visits, and joint scientific research.
Dr. Licheri expressed his gratitude for the university's hospitality, and spoke highly of CQMU’s achievements in emergency medical care and medical education. He stated that CoSMEU was willing to send emergency physicians to Chongqing for clinical training and provide support for exchanges between CQMU and CoSMEU, so as to jointly promote the high-quality development of emergency medicine in both countries.
Ms. Zhang Mi, Deputy Director of the Office of International Cooperation and Exchanges, Dr. Guo Rui, Deputy Director of the Emergency Department of the First Affiliated Hospital, and Dr. Zong Jianchun, Deputy Director of the Emergency Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital, also attended the meeting.
