Success Story – Margarita Salikhova: From Intern to Speaker at the Neurosurgery Conference!
15 November 2024 became for the internship laureate at the Buzaev Clinic and clinical resident of the department “General Surgery, Transplantology, and Radiological Diagnostics ” Bashkir State Medical University Margarita Salikhova faced a real challenge, which she successfully overcame. On this day, the Conference of Neurosurgeons of the Volga Federal District took place, where Margarita made her debut as a speaker.
Less than a year ago, Margarita was sitting in a lecture hall, listening to experienced instructors, and she had no idea that in such a short time she would be standing before the same people, now as an expert.
Wow! Less than a year ago, I was sitting here listening to lectures from professors, and now I will be standing at the podium and speaking to the audience “”, — she shared her feelings
Compassion and Support as a Driving Force
What makes Margarita’s story even more inspiring is her sincere gratitude to her mentor — Rezida Maratovna, radiologist Dmitry Krekotin, and the other members of the buzaevclinic team.
Her support felt like a large armored blanket—soft and caring, yet reliable and strong, “” — says Margarita. From the first tears over the presentation to the final touches on the eve of the conference, Rezida Maratovna was there, helping and guiding.
The Challenges and Triumph of Public Speaking
Margarita spoke about her anxiety before stepping onto the podium:
Waiting for my turn to speak, I thought: ‘God, what new can I tell such professionals?’
However, her presentation sparked interest, and even experienced professionals asked her questions about the report. This was a signal that she had truly managed to bring something new.
I feel incredible pride for this achievement, says Margarita. I overcame the fear of public speaking and did it for myself!
The Path to Transforming Medicine
The theme of Margarita’s presentation was dedicated to multiparametric MRI as a standard for preoperative examination of patients with brain tumors. Her contribution eased the routine of neurosurgeons by providing them with guidelines for diagnosing patients.
