That gratitude has become the goal and ideal for me to follow throughout my life."

Talking about the difficulties in his medical career, Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tri said that he came from a poor family and when he started his career, he often came into contact with poor patients, which motivated him to learn and gain new knowledge. Facing temptations and pitfalls, he always set his own principles, strictly following the law and medical ethics.

“My concept is to study and work to show gratitude to teachers and scientists. Through research, I see that our scientists are very talented, very persistent, very determined, and very patriotic. I always wonder and want to do something to promote those qualities for the next generation,” Prof. Dr. Nguyen Anh Tri shared.
