Tami König is a 4th year Medical student and will be starting her 8th semester in September. After finishing the study year, she decided to stay in Riga for the summer and enjoy the pleasures that the warmer months in the North can offer.
Why did you decide to stay in Riga?
With the pandemic going on I felt safer here as the Latvian government seemed to have the whole situation under control better than elsewhere.
Now, at the height of summer, the reconstruction of the Rīga Stradiņš University’s (RSU) Anatomy Museum is finally in its home stretch – the museum is being furnished and work on setting up the exhibition has begun. This comprehensive project will conclude at the beginning of October and the museum will be a welcome new addition to the already expansive museum scene in Riga. Located at 9 Kronvalda bulvāris, the RSU Anatomy Museum will be a special place for anyone interested in getting to know the human body from the viewpoint of a surgeon or an anatomist.
A new smart device has been created as part of the new computerised individual personality assessment system. It was the result of several years of cooperation between researchers from Rīga Stradiņš University (RSU) and Riga Technical University (RTU). The device will make psychological testing in the army more convenient and efficient. We talked to project leader Ainārs Stepens who is a neurologist and Head of the RSU Military Medicine Research and Study Centre (pictured).

‘Hey, have you received your master’s degree yet?’ Oxana Brante’s (pictured) friends asked her, the same friends who shook their heads in horror when she pushed her journalist’s career aside nine years ago and started from scratch, enrolling in the professional Pharmacy programme at Rīga Stradiņš University (RSU).
