Rector of Samarkand State University, member of the Senate of the Oliy Majlis, figure of the Republic of Uzbekistan Rustam Khalmuradov met with honorary officials.
      During the mutual negotiations, issues of scientific exchange projects that were important for both sides were discussed: expanding cooperation in the field of education, practical and fundamental research, as well as the implementation of scientific exchange projects with the aim of exchanging experience on a wide scale.

      A memorandum was also signed on the creation of a “Chinese Research Center” to work on joint interdisciplinary projects. According to the agreement, the main objectives of the center are to solve problems of rational use of limited water and land resources in an irrigated agricultural region, identify the causes and sources of dust storms and mitigate their negative impact on the regions, clean up land and water resources from man-made pollution, develop innovative technologies, and increase productivity field crops through the widespread use of advances in genetics, selection and seed production, as well as finding solutions to issues such as the rational use of natural resources and the biodiversity of the region.

      “Samarkand State University has close cooperation ties with leading higher educational institutions of the People’s Republic of China in many fields of science, culture and education,” says Rector of Samarkand State University Rustam Khalmuradov, “the work carried out jointly with leading educational institutions and scientific organizations of China is always different high performance.

      At previous meetings and negotiations, we discussed the possibility of opening a number of joint laboratories and interdisciplinary research centers to develop mechanisms for solving various problems that threaten modern society. The first step in this direction was the opening of the “Chinese Research Center”, which is a joint activity of representatives of Xi’an Jiaotong University and Samara State University. I believe that the creation of such a joint interdisciplinary center will unite scientists from the two countries and will allow us to invite leading specialists from other countries to cooperate in the future. In turn, we are ready to adopt and adapt to our conditions the experience of promising research from world universities in this direction, as well as introduce and promote such successful developments in neighboring countries of the region.

      At the end of the event, artistic performances were presented with the participation of students of Samarkand State University.
