ACADEMICIAN HOVHANNES HOVHANNISIAN ALREADY A FOUR TIMES LAUREATE
Reading the list of the laureates of 2006 in media, I was very happy to see
the name of our compatriot, orthopedist Havhannes Hovhannisian, who lives in
Moscow. I met him in the Orthopedic Research Institute after Priarov. He has
worked here for several decades after graduating from the Yerevan Medical
Institute.
Hovhannes Hovhannisian is a Doctor of medical sciences, Director of the
Orthopedic Clinic of Adults, professor of the Moscow Academy of Medical
Sciences, more than 30 years an advisor of the General Medical Board of
Russia, and a real member of many international academies. He is an author
of 400 scientific works and the Discovery Number 208; he is also an author
of 95 discoveries. Hovhannisian has 45 abroad (USA, England, Sweden,
Switzerland, Canada, Germany, France, Japan) and 4 Russian licenses. He
discovered 9 orthopedic equipments that were being applied in Russia and 22
other countries. He is a leader of 24 dissertations and 9 doctoral theses.
The director of the Orthopedic Research Institute after Priarov, Chief of
the General Medical Board of Russia Sergey Pavlovich Mironov wrote two
letters to RA President Robert Kocharian, and asked to award Hovhannes
Hovhannisian a medal of St. Mesrob Mashtots, as Hovhannisian is a graduate
of Oshakan school after Mesrob Mashtots. He mentioned in the letter that
after the earthquake of Spitak, H. Hovhannisian organized the medical
treatment of 300 patients. With other orthopedists he actively organized
operations of many Armenians injured by the earthquake.
Hovhannes Hovhannisian is one of the respectable Armenians in the world, and
it’s amazing that the letters of Sergey Mironov have no answer yet.
