In a written address, scientists from the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS) have asked the rectors of the medical universities in Varna and Stara Zagora to suspend all forms of training in homeopathy at their universities, the BAS press center said.
"It is unacceptable that the pseudo-scientific principles of homeopathy, which contradict the basic tenets of physics and chemistry, are offered to medical and pharmacy students or graduates even after they have passed the compulsory courses in medical physics, biophysics, and chemistry, in which modern science is taught," the scientists wrote in their address.
The initiative was taken by the forum for combating pseudoscience at BAS. It has been supported by some of the most prominent Bulgarian medics. Following an assessment of the adverse effects of homeopathy, the rectors of the medical universities of Sofia, Plovdiv, and Pleven suspended all forms of teaching homeopathy in 2022.
