President Nicolás Maduro celebrated this Friday the first anniversary of the founding of the University of Sciences, Dr. Humberto Fernández Morán.
The national leader was accompanied by the Minister of Health, Magaly Gutiérrez, the representative of the Science and Technology portfolio, Gabriela Jiménez, and the Minister of University Education, Ricardo Sánchez.
The live broadcast began with an interaction between the doctors who work at the University. They showed the new articulated system where all the patient’s history will be uploaded so that the treating doctors have access to it.

We started with 20 thousand boys in high schools, 30 thousand, 40 thousand, 50 thousand, 100 and now it has skyrocketed (…) the scientific seedbed has reached 850 thousand girls, boys, young people from schools, high schools throughout the country.
«They are two blocks of force, it is like a tsunami of general will, it is a tsunami of collective consciousness, this is a tsunami of knowledge and science for humanity. In this case for the good of humanity
The national leader took the opportunity to ask students to always take into account the importance of ethics, while emphasizing that in Venezuela there is a profitable future for young people, where they can develop their qualities with the support of the Executive.
