I have
no doubt that the total experience of planning,
implementing, and disseminating their research, as well as
planning this conference, will not only inspire students to
pursue research, think beyond conventional boundaries, and
enhance their academic journey but also will prepare them
for future roles as medical professionals, researchers, and
innovators
