The second
meeting within the series "Under the Magic Pen of Medics" was held on
14th December 2017. Once again the big hall of the library at Medical
University - Varna gathered together guests and friends of the gift of speech. The
management, lecturers and students had the opportunity to communicate
informally and exchange their experience and new ideas.
Emotional and
touching, inspired by the accumulated wisdom of life, was the presentation of
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Yonko Yonkov, who shared quite a few of the "hushed
truths" with his audience. Besides his long-term experience as a
university lecturer, head of the Department of Anatomy, Histology and
Embryology, Assoc. Prof. Yonkov is also a member of the Writers’ Association in
Varna, and a winner of the Owl Statue of the Bulgarian Teachers’ Syndicate. He is the author of several poetry
collections, the last one of which is "Hushed Truths", with three
revised and supplementary editions.
His associates
in the mastery of speech were the 4th-year medical students
Rostislava Petrova and Magdalena Bliznakova. They presented poems and sketches
in an intriguing dialogue with each other, seeking answers to the eternal
questions of love and happiness.
The series
"Under the Magic Pen of Medics", initiated by the library, is
becoming a sought-after scene for the creative expression of doctors.
