Biography

Dr. Oleksii Hliebov is an Associate Professor at Ross University School of Medicine. He has a strong background in teaching physiology and pharmacology to medical students, focusing on active learning strategies, integrated curriculum development, and case-based learning. His teaching interests include cardiovascular and gastrointestinal physiology and renal and endocrine pharmacology, with a particular emphasis on bridging the gap between basic sciences and clinical applications.

Dr. Oleksii Hliebov believes that all medical students are individuals, and everyone learns in their own unique way. That’s why there is no way to reach a diverse group of students with only one teaching style. He always pays attention to what students need, looks at their abilities and interests, and adjusts his teaching style as necessary.

He has received recognition for demonstrating exceptional performance, outstanding achievements, and invaluable contributions to RUSM with the Department Excellence Award.
