The message reads, in part:
“Your Institute proudly bears the name of an outstanding Russian physician, surgeon Nikolai Sklifosovsky, and is rightfully one of the largest multidisciplinary research and medical centres in the country, a recognised leader in providing publicly accessible, high-quality emergency medical care. Its staff members are truly unique experts, endlessly devoted to their work and their professional duty.
I am confident that you will remain true to the great traditions of compassion and selflessness bestowed by the Institute’s founders and make serious contributions to the development of Russian healthcare and medical science.”
