Abstract
The article examines the international scientific trips of the teaching staff of the Women’s Medical Institute in the early 20th century, based on institutional records and unpublished archival sources. Special attention is paid to the participation of women physicians in international scientific mobility and the conditions of their inclusion in these processes. The study analyzes the objectives, destinations, and forms of these foreign trips, as well as the institutional mechanisms supporting them. It is shown that the Women’s Medical Institute served as an important hub for international scientific contacts and played a significant role in integrating women physicians into the global scientific community, while simultaneously strengthening the position of Russian medicine on the international stage.
