According to Prof. Nguyen Hong Anh-Rector of QNU, the project of establishing Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy in QNU has long been of great concern. Confronted with the current shortage of doctors, QNU has planned to open the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy (FMP) in collaboration with UMP-HCM and UP7 (France) in order to provide training of medical resources not o­nly for the provincial health sector of Binh Dinh but also for that of neighboring provinces such as Phu Yen, Gia Lai, Kon Tum, etc. Currently, QNU has been in the progress of learning about the training demand and health infrastructure as well as the ability to coordinate with other health units in Binh Dinh province so as to have good reason for the establishment of FMP, thence submiting the Project to the Minisry of Healh for approval. Fortunately, there exists many national research institutes in Binh Dinh province, including IMPE Quy Nhon, which are eligible to participate the training and become o­ne of the research facilities for students' practice. For this reason, at the meeting, Prof. Le Hong Anh also expressed his desire to have the support and cooperation of IMPE-QN in the Project.
