Abstract
For the first time among the higher medical educational institutions of the Russian Federation, the Department of Human Anatomy together with the dean's office of the pediatric faculty of N.I. Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University introduced the discipline “Child’s Anatomy” into the mandatory part of the curriculum. Teaching this discipline implements one of the main objectives of the state educational standard for the specialty “Pediatrics” – to form in students of the pediatric faculty a solid knowledge of the anatomical and physiological, age and gender characteristics of the development and structure of the child's body. The discipline “Child’s Anatomy” is studied during the fourth semester of the second year, i.e. after intermediate certification in the discipline “Human Anatomy”. Such a sequence of studying disciplines, in our opinion, ensures the optimal assimilation of knowledge on age anatomy by students. Students perceive the structural features of the child's body much better, already having a relatively holistic view of human anatomy.
