About Yasuj University of Medical Sciences
Basic information and contact details for Yasuj University of Medical Sciences
Yasuj University of Medical Sciences is located in the capital of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer Ahmad province in south-western Iraq.
It was created as a regional centre for public health training in 1990 and attained its current name and status in 1995, the year when it also admitted its first cohort of medical students.
Current provision stretches across Schools of Medicine, Dentistry, Nursing and Midwifery, Public Health, Paramedical Science, Pharmacy, and Postgraduate Studies.
The Medical Research Centre, established in 2007, has drawn on the diversity of medicinal plants available locally, while recent research projects have examined the usefulness of green tea and of pomegranates juice in the treatment of Covid-19.
Other research groups include the Social Determinants of Health Centre and the Molecular Cellular Research Centre, which opened a year earlier.
YUMS is linked to seven health networks in the province – Dana, Bahmai, Bayer-Ahmed, Kohgilvyeh, Gachsaran, Basht and Charam.
