The article adduces the potential possibilities of distant education Edx.org platform for organization and realization of individual work of students in the process of study of “Medical and Biological Physics” to master degree in “General Medicine” (for English speaking students).
The results of the comparative analysis are presented and common elements of the curriculum in Medical and Biological Physics and distance course "Fundamentals of Neuroscience" are revealed. We considered Edx.org educational materials as an integral part of home training and a basis for students' independent and classroom work. An example of organizing students' independent work using the capabilities of the Edx.org distance learning system is given. Legal borrowing and the use of separate educational materials for distance learning make it possible to actualize, standardize and optimize the work of students in independent and individual work in the study of the discipline "Medical and Biological Physics".
On the basis of the conducted audit of the course "Neuroscience" it is proposed to use the organizational structure of the course in order to organize the independent and auditor work of students in the discipline "Medical and Biological Physics".
