The research projects by the DTU College of Medicine & Pharmacy are very diverse
Student projects this year were very diverse and had potential to develop products that can be widely used in society.

Many projects drew the attention of the attendees at the conference, such as:
- “The initial development of niosome berberine for oral use and the initial extraction and development of gel from the extract of Artemisia vulgaris L.”
- “Perception of stress and coping behaviors by Nursing students in clinical practice in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic in Danang”
- “Analysis of adverse drug reactions in outpatient prescriptions at the Military Hospital 268 in 2020”
- “Survey on drug use and adherence to treatment for hypertensive outpatients at the hospital 199 in 2022”
- “Survey on osteoporosis in patients with chronic kidney disease”
- “Evaluating the results of retrograde ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy at the Military Hospital 17 in 2020”

- second prizes to students Nguyen Trung Duc and Nguyen Quang Thong from the Faculty of Medicine with the projects
