President’s message
June 28th, 2023.
Dear BNS Members,
It gives me great pleasure I take over as the 18th President of the prestigious Bangalore Neurological Society from the 3rd day of June 2023.
Firstly, a big thank you to all the members for reposing this trust in me. I will do my best to prove worthy of this honour.
Many stalwarts in the field of Neuroscience have presided over this society and have contributed to building it to its present stature.
It would be remiss of me to fail to mention the names of these illustrious luminaries in whose footsteps I follow. Dr. D. H. Deshpande (1994-1995), Dr. B. S. Das (1995-1996), Dr. K. K. Mandanna ( 1996-1997), Dr. B. P. Mruthyunjayanna (1997-1998), Dr.H.V.Srinivas (1998-1999), Dr. S. K. Shankar (1999-2001), Dr. A. K. Roy (2001-2003), Dr. K. V. R. Shastry ( 2001-2003 ), Dr. R. Srinivasa (2005-2007 ), Dr. A. S. Hegde ( 2007-2009), Dr. P. Satishchandra (2009-2011), Dr. Sudhir Pai (2011-2013), Dr. G.T. Subhas (2013-2015), Dr. B.A. Chandramouli (2015-2017), Dr.P.T.Acharya (2017-2019), Dr.Sampath (2019-2021) and Dr.J.B.Agadi (2021-2023).
I have big shoes to fill, particularly because seven of them have been my teachers.
The new team which includes, President –Elect, Dr.GRK Sarma, Hon. Secretary- Dr.Kiran M, Treasurer- Dr. Guruprasad Hosurkar, EC members- Dr.Uday Murgod, Dr. Raghunandan Nadig, Dr. Nitesh Kambli, and Dr. Satyanarayana LD, looks forward to continued support from all the members to continue the existing programs and introduce new ones. We will of course continue to rely on the able guidance of our distinguished past President, Dr.Agadi and ever enthusiastic past-secretary, Dr. Dwaraknath.
The CMEs organized by the society give an opportunity for the members to update their knowledge in various aspects of the neurosciences. This year we will set the ball rolling in August with an update on genetics as it relates to the neurosciences. We hope to follow that up with one on Neuropediatrics sometime early next year.
We hope to encourage more of the residents and younger members to attend the monthly BNS meetings. The monthly quiz and prizes for presentations are part of that endeavour. We hope to introduce other initiatives to further enhance this participation. During the new cycle of presentations at the monthly meetings, we have introduced a slot for presentations by members who are not a part of the major hospitals. We are looking forward to active participation from this group of private practitioners.
BNS has decided to grant R.50,000/- for research purposes to the students and members of BNS and there is provision for 6 such grants every year.
Travel grants to the tune of Rs. 10,000/- will also be given to deserving members of BNS.
Members are encouraged to make full use of these new initiatives and come forward with any new suggestions to further the education and research goals of the BNS.
Thank you once again for bestowing this honour upon me. I request you to join in me in taking our society to ever greater heights.
With warm regards,
Dr. Shibu Pillai
28th June 2023.
