The 1050th anniversary of the birth of Ibn Sina will be celebrated in 2030

In 2030, Uzbekistan will widely celebrate the 1050th anniversary of the birth of the great physician and polymath Abu Ali ibn Sina (Avicenna). On October 19, the government approved a "roadmap" for the deep study and wide promotion of his scientific heritage, the Ministry of Justice reported.

The document also approved the proposal to establish the Abu Ali ibn Sina Research Center at the Bukhara State Medical Institute.

Among the main tasks of the center are conducting research related to the medical practice of Ibn Sina and integrating its results into modern medicine, collecting manuscripts and translating them into the Uzbek language while creating an electronic platform, as well as organizing courses and masterclasses for medical workers and people interested in the history of medicine.

In October 2026, an international scientific conference titled "Ibn Sina — a Great Representative of Philosophical Thought of the West and East" is planned to be held in Tashkent.

An international Ibn Sina award will also be established, and the works "Mujaz al-Qanun" ("The Canon of Medicine"), "Al-Isharat wa at-tanbihat" ("Remarks and Admonitions"), "Danishnama", "Kitab al-Shifa" ("The Book of Healing"), and "Eastern Philosophy" will be translated. In addition, scientific expeditions abroad and the collection of manuscripts stored there are planned.

Furthermore, the organization of conferences, exhibitions, and open lectures in medical universities, scientific centers, libraries, and preventive healthcare institutions is envisaged.
