Subbotin heads the Department of Surgical Pathology at Kharkov University. In addition to scientific and pedagogical activities, he will devote a lot of time to the organizational issues of the clinic. He uses the surgical department of a military hospital as a clinical base for training students at Kharkov University. In addition to the course of surgical pathology with desmurgy, he also conducts a course of surgical surgery, and since 1887, a parallel course of the faculty surgical clinic.
