Popis: Reforming the health care system is an integral part of our country's socio-economic transformations. Orientation towards new forms of health care provision involves improving the system of future doctors training by approaching it to international educational standards. In the system of professional doctor’s training, the study of chemical disciplines is an inseparable part of the educational process, because basic knowledge is the foundation for a number of the clinically essential disciplines. Therefore, the purpose of the article was to reveal the peculiarities of the formation of professional competences of future doctors in the process of studying the discipline "Medical Chemistry". In accordance with the requirements of the curriculum "Medicine" of the second (master's) level of higher education in the specialty 222 "Medicine", the field of knowledge 22 "Healthcare" The educational discipline "Medical chemistry" is studied over the first semester of the first year of study. The discipline covers the chemical bases of the processes of life of a living organism, which are ruled by the main chemical patterns. Medical chemistry also focuses on the structure and reactivity of the most important biologically active molecules, the theory of chemical bonding in complex compounds of biometals and bioligans, and the role of biogenic elements in the body functions. The discipline explains the processes that occur at the molecular and submolecular levels, as causes of various forms of diseases and the specificity of hereditary signs originate at those levels. The chemical component "Medical Chemistry" is based on the study of bioorganic chemistry students, medical and biological physics, medical biology and integrated with these disciplines; it makes the ground for deeper understanding of physiology, pathophysiology, biological chemistry, pharmacology and toxicology, hygienic disciplines and ecology. Thus, the discipline "Medical Chemistry" is an adapted version of the classical model of a chemical course that contains separate sections of general, inorganic, analytical, physical, and colloidal chemistry. Its primary goal is to equip future highly qualified doctors with theoretical knowledge and practical skills important for their professional development
