One of the two hundred stars of the Constellation of the Dragon is named after the I. K. Akhunbaev KSMA in honor of the eightieth anniversary of the flagship of higher medical education in Kyrgyzstan. The staff of the Medical Academy became aware of this today, June 18, 2019, when the initiators of the "Star as a Gift" movement, led by Professor of the Department of General Surgery with the course of Kombustiology of the university, Doctor of Medical Sciences Akylbek Musayev, presented the certificate of the astrometric register of Roscosmos to the rector of the KSMA, Professor Indira Kudaibergenova.

The first forge of medical personnel on the territory of our country deserves the honor of this kind. This was discussed at the celebration by both the leaders and venerable scientists of the KSMA.

It should be noted that the Constellation of the Dragon is circumpolar and is located in the Northern Hemisphere. Above the horizon, this Constellation can be distinguished at any time of the year.
