Roman Moskalenko\u2019s results in this competition over the past three years demonstrate exceptional stability in intense competition:<br data-start=\"666\" data-end=\"669\" \/>2022\u20132023 academic year \u2014 2nd place (with a margin of only 1 point from the leader);<br data-start=\"753\" data-end=\"756\" \/>2023\u20132024 academic year \u2014 1st place;<br data-start=\"792\" data-end=\"795\" \/>2024\u20132025 academic year \u2014 1st place (an 8-point lead over 2nd place).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"868\" data-end=\"1171\">The \u201cBest Academic and Teaching Staff of SumDU\u201d competition is not merely a formal ranking but a comprehensive audit of a scholar\u2019s and educator\u2019s performance. According to the University Regulations, the evaluation system is among the most demanding in Ukraine and is based on two fundamental stages.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"1173\" data-end=\"1456\">The first and mandatory stage is a survey of students. Only those instructors whose level of student support and approval exceeds 90% are admitted to the competition. This emphasizes that high-quality communication and respect from the student community are at the core of success.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"1458\" data-end=\"1748\">The evaluation is carried out across a wide range of metrics (a comprehensive analysis of about 30 indicators), including research productivity (publications in Scopus\/WoS, citations), methodological work, grant activity, international cooperation, and the training of research personnel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"1750\" data-end=\"2067\">The competition format introduced at SumDU is an effective tool for internal monitoring and stimulation of human resource potential. The victory of a representative of the Medical Institute in such an intellectual competition confirms the high competitiveness of SumDU\u2019s medical school at the university-wide level.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"2069\" data-end=\"2386\">\u201cThese results of recent years have been recognized thanks to the students, who highly appreciate my work.
