Abstract

This article discusses current trends and advances in physiology education at leading medical schools worldwide. The focus is on modern pedagogical approaches such as the flipped classroom method, team-based and problem-based learning, the use of simulation technologies, as well as virtual and augmented reality. The importance of integrating physiology with clinical disciplines and actively using digital educational platforms is noted. The analysis shows that these methods contribute to increased student motivation, improved academic performance, and the development of clinical thinking.
