Dr Kaushik Sarkar MD XMBA, a big thanks to you!
Yesterday we did an experiment. Instead of the usual journal club where we all would gang up and critique an article, we invited the author of the article to come and present the paper in an informal setting. Dr Kaushik obliged us and discussed his latest publication in UCL Open Research. Fantastic learning experience...The smiles say it all! A 3000 worded manuscript is not enough to capture the experience and wisdom the researcher would have amassed while doing the study.
We had four fantastic interns from IIPH-Delhi Drs. Aastha Singh, Anjali Chauhan, Swati C.Nair and Navneet Kaur with us for about 2 months! As we bid them farewell today, Team GRID Council wishes them the best in career and life.
