Science Slam Almaty competition of scientific projects
On November 23, 2018, the final of Science Slam Almaty competition of scientific projects was held at the Eurasian Technological University. Science Slam is an international project to popularize science, first implemented in Germany in 2006. This is an unusual and bright format for presenting scientific information. Having gained popularity in Germany, the project's events are held in Austria, Sweden, Switzerland, and Russia. The goal of the project was to popularize science and popular science topics in Kazakhstan, aimed at creating a favorable image of young scientists and researchers, to interest young people in science, study and the desire to succeed.

This year, students and undergraduates of Almaty, who were ready to share their scientific developments with the world, gathered and told everyone about their complex topics in a language that everyone can understand. There was no place for difficult scientific terms, incomprehensible slides and boring university audiences. Only those who had something to say and who knew how to do it were interesting came on the scene.
The competition was held in two stages: qualifying and final. Expert support of the competition was carried out by the Council on Science.

The first round (preliminary absentee selection) - the acceptance of applications and the preliminary selection of participants for a full-time competitive tour. During the first round, the compliance of the applications with the selection criteria was checked and a preliminary assessment of the videos was made. According to the results of the first round, 7 participants were selected who scored the most points.

The second round was held by the face-to-face competitive contest of the seven final participants, held in Almaty in front of a wide audience. The undergraduate of the Department of Healthcare Policy and Organization of the specialty “Medicine” Tulepova Gaukhar with her research project “Self-Evaluation of the Clinical Activity of the Doctor of the AMC Private Clinic of the City of Almaty” passed to the final of the competition. The purpose of the study is to develop a method of self-assessment of the clinical activities of a doctor at the private AMC clinic in Almaty.
