The paper examines the recent trends in international mobility, attractivity for international students, and the number of publications of two universities (Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra, Slovakia, CPU and Tbilisi State Medical University, Georgia, TSMU) to understand whether the COVID-19 pandemic affected these processes and whether the adverse consequences of the pandemic were still retained after its end. In addition, we examined the influence of EU support for these processes. For this purpose, we analyzed the rates of international mobility (the number of outgoing and incoming students and employees, the number of international students, and the number of publications indexed in SCOPUS and the WoS database of CPU and TSMU before, during, and after the abolishment of administrative restrictions induced by the COVID-19 pandemic. The comparison of CPU and TSMU demonstrated the similarity between these universities in the development of international contacts and cooperation. The indexes of international mobility and the number of publications in the EU university CPU were higher than those in the non-EU TSMU. On the other hand, before COVID-19, the indexes of international mobility and the number of publications of TSMU were stable or tended to decline, but in CPU, they increased. COVID-19 had a negative impact on all indexes of international mobility, but the number of international students continued to increase in both universities, even during the pandemic. The use of home offices during the pandemic promoted an increase in the number of international publications among authors from CPU but not among those from TSMU. After the end of the pandemic, in both universities, the indexes of international mobility increased but sometimes did not return to pre-pandemic levels. In the post-COVID-19 period, in both CPU and TSMU, the number of international students continued to grow, and the number of publications declined. These observations highlight the trend of internalization experienced by both universities, the negative impact of COVID on their international mobility, and the importance of EU support for research.
The main objective of the study was to analyze the peculiarities of pharmaceutical sciences priorities and challenges towards on pharmacists' profession regulation issues perfection and enhancement in Georgia. The study was a quantitative investigation by using questionnaires. A survey study was conducted. The in-depth interview method of the respondents was used in the study. Different types of approved questionnaires were used (respondents were randomly selected): questionnaires for chief pharmacists, patients, employed pharmacy faculty-students, health-care specialists, and pharmacist specialists. Were used methods of systematic, sociological (surveying, questioning), comparative, mathematicalstatistical, graphical analysis. The data were processed and analyzed with the SPSS program. We conducted descriptive statistics and regression analyses to detect an association between variables. Statistical analysis was done in SPSS version 11.0. A Chi-square test was applied to estimate the statistical significance and differences. We defined p < 0.05 as significant for all analyses. According to the study results, the respondent young (up to 35 year) pharmacists vast majority considered that for successful work their knowledge was not enough in the subjects of pharmacology, pharmacotherapy, clinical pharmacy and pharmaceutical care. Therefore, in our opinion at university pharmacy programs and syllabuses need upgrade, adaptation and fit on new demands reality. In pharmacy faculty programs there should increase credits in the following subjects: pharmacology, pharmacotherapy, clinical pharmacy and pharmaceutical care. Above mentioned complex would help formation of the highly qualified pharmacist with deep and systematic knowledge. It is obvious that the contact hours in the pharmacology, pharmacotherapy, clinical pharmacy and the pharmaceutical care subjects within the Peculiarities of priorities and challenges of pharmaceutical sciences Peculiarities of priorities and challenges of pharmaceutical sciences Peculiarities of priorities and challenges of pharmaceutical sciences Peculiarities of priorities and challenges of pharmaceutical sciences … … … … . . . .
Objectives: EBM (Evidence-Based Medicine) and Case Study is a relatively new concept in medicine, and medical education, but one that is rapidly gaining acceptance as an important approach in assisting medical students, residents, and practicing physicians in their clinical decisionmaking. Problem Base and Case Study learning in Medical Education has become a widespread and effective method of using the medical literature. It has four basic steps: the development of a clinical question, the literature search for the appropriate medical literature to address the clinical question, critical appraisal of the acquired paper, and application of the results of the research paper to the patient at hand. Goals: Analysis of effectiveness of teaching methodology Methods: Observational Study Results: The use of PB(EBM) and CS should allow patient care that is the most effective, the most cost-effective, and the safest. The skills to master in use the EBM approach include that of question formulation, literature searching, critical appraisal of articles, and application of evidence. The resources needed include computers and Internet for access to full articles, a printer, and functional use of the English language. Moreover, this is a lifelong endeavor, so practice and mentorship are useful. The PB and CS component in the Tbilisi State Medical University has the aim of assisting students in learning objectives. Training in the PB and CS learning method will be provided at the beginning of the Module.Problem base and Case Study learning in education has become a widespread and effective method of literature use.

Conclusion: By the end of this course you should have demonstrated your capacity to: recognize, compare, and contrast the general "ways of thinking" of science (biology) and of philosophy (ethics). Approach bioethical problems, break them into smaller component parts (analysis), and discuss those analyses through oral and written communication, both individually and in groups. Approach bioethical problems and propose solutions to them that transcend the disciplines of biology and philosophy, solidly rooted in their respective ways-of-knowing. Acquire and separate factual knowledge from opinion in the areas of science and philosophy. Demonstrate good critical thinking (that is, clear, logical (coherent and relevant), broad, deep, and discriminating) in bioethics through speaking and writing. Outcomes of PBL and CS are the problem-solving skills, self-directed learning skills, ability to find and use appropriate resources, critical thinking, measurable knowledge base, performance ability, social and ethical skills, self-sufficiency and self-motivation, leadership skills, ability to work on a team, communication skills, proactive thinking, congru...
