FROM SECRETARY'S DESK

 
 
January 2007

Dear Members,

55th NSI Annual Conference at Madurai was a nice experience with good attendance. However, lesser participation in NSI annual conferences by Neurologists was a concern. Absence of Prof. M. Natarajan was very much felt.

Younger members of the society are encouraged to avail more and more of fellowships awarded by NSI. Henceforth, preference will be given to publish articles from India in our NSI journal "Neurology India". Every attempt is being made to update the membership list, kindly inform any change in address immediately to me.

All of us must contribute in whatever possible way to increase public awareness of neurological diseases sponsorship for this is welcome.

With regards & best wishes

MESSAGE
   
  Dear Colleagues,

The Neurological Society of India has grown over the years & gained reputation internationally. I am grateful to you for giving me the opportunity to take the society forward for the next one year.

We know that neurological disorders are far more common than one believes. We also realize that inspite of Phenomenal developments and innovations in the field of neurosciences in the last few decades there are many things which we still do not understand about the functioning of the nervous system and we need to know much more about it.

Fortunately the Government has established the National Brain Research Center at Manesar, Gurgaon. I appeal to all the neuroscientists to take advantage of this facility maximally. All its facilities including Library are available to all the members of the Society. In the long run this would benefit our patients more effectively.

Inspite of Neurological disorders being far more common than other diseases, yet the public money spent for research on neurological disorders is far less than other fields of medicine. This short coming to my mind is due to the lack of public awareness, and I am sure it can be Improved, which could automatically put pressure on various funding agencies to provide more funds for research, prevention & rehabilitation of our patients.

I request all the members of our society to work unitedly to improve public awareness of neurological disorders. In this regard I suggest following steps be initiated this year. We should regularly arrange a public lecture during our annual conference every year with wide publicity. I also further appeal to all other national societies pertaining to neurosciences to make it a regular feature to have a public lecture during their annual conferences with wide publicity & media coverage.

In addition all local, state & regional branches should celebrate days associated with neurological disorders throughout the country under the banner of Neurological Society of India by local branches & try for media coverage. Public lectures, exhibitions etc. should highlight neurological disorders including its prevalence, prevention & management.

There are:

1 World Parkinsonism Day 11th April
2 World Stroke Day 24th June
3 World Alzheimer's Day 21st September
4 World Trauma Day 16th October
5 World Epilepsy Day 17th November
   
 
To achieve this I suggests to all the Neuroclubs / Societies / Associations /Chapters of the different cities / States / Regions to forward names & addresses of their office bearers to Secretary NSI so that they can be issued outlines for celebrating these activities locally under the joint banner of Neurological Society of India and local body.
   
  I would welcome other suggestions from any member to achieve our goals and objectives.

Thanks & kind regards,

Dr. V S Mehta

President of Neurological Society of India

3. Secretary's Report was read out by Prof. B.S. Sharma.

a. Minutes of Executive Committee meeting held in May 2006 at Madurai have been published in the newsletter of June 2006 issue.

b. Following actions have been taken.

i.) Space for permanent office of NSI has been acquired at Mata Chanan Devi Hospital. Currently the previous records, newsletters are being collected. Dr. Ganapathy requested Secretary to put this information on the website and in the next newsletter.

Prof. A.K. Banerji expressed apprehensions regarding terms and conditions of acquiring this office space. He was of the opinion that decision to give this space to NSI must be the resolution of the trust of Mata Chanan Devi Hospital not of an individual. Presently a single room had been given to NSI in the old building with provisions for free telephone, internet etc. for an initial period of 15 years when will be shifted later on in new building.

Dr. B.S. Sharma (Secretary) was asked to take legal opinion, and bring the matter back to the EC in the mid term meeting at Agra in May 2007.

Dr. Ravi Ramamurthi informed that in VHS there was a large museum with all archives related to neurosurgery. This could come as a proposal later once the Mata Chanan Devi issue was settled.

ii.) Training in Neurosciences Dr. A.K. Banerji expressed concern over the dumping of the 5 year course and lack of uniformity in the present courses (some centre 2 yrs. & some 3 yrs.) He along with the entire Executive Committee were of the opinion that the 5 year course should be re-introduced and that there should a uniform 3 year course for both Neurology and Neurosurgery. No place should have a DM/Mch. programme unless emergency services were available. He felt that it was very crucial for Neurology and Neurosurgery to co-ordinate an internal meeting to draw up a curriculum. Prof. Mehta informed that a meeting had been held in this regard with MCI about 1 ½ yrs. ago but there was no reply from MCI till date. The Secretary was asked to follow up this matter with MCI. The President Dr. Ganapathy informed that he had discussion with Prof. Rajsekaran President of NBE who had agreed to discuss specific curriculum recommendations made by NSI. The Executive Committee appointed Secretary Prof. B.S. Sharma as the convenor for co-ordinating a meeting of selected senior people including allied specialties (1) to develop and design the curriculum in difference subjects in Neurosciences & (2) to draw up recommendations/criteria for recognition of training centres and trainers.

   
 
It was decided to have the meeting in Delhi on 13the December and get NBE and MCI officials also for the meeting. The Executive Committee passed a resolution that the entire NSI wanted the 5/6 year course to be reintroduced which should be reiterated to NBE.

Dr. Ganapathy informed that NBE had started a supplementary exam in June for candidates who had failed in December. Dr. Bhagwati suggested that operative skills should be tested in exams but other Executive Committee members expressed reservations. It was decided that this matter may be discussed in the curriculum committee.

4. Treasurer's Report Dr. Ravi Ramamurthy informed that 75 lakhs was available in RBI bonds (8% interest). This year Rs. 6,13,000/- had been received as fees from life and associate members (till December 13, 2006). He expected that collection to be around 10 lakhs by end March, 2007. The main expenses was the WFNS contribution which had increased from 6 to 8 dollars / person. Total Rs. 2,66,000/- paid this year. The other expenses were travel expenses in mid-year Executive Meeting and pay to the Secretary (Rs. 3000/- PM) and accountant (Rs. 2000/- PM) of the Treasurer.

He would courier this book to each registered delegate by 10th - 15th January. He also informed that this year the printing charges had escalated since the no. of copies as well as no. of pages /volume had increased and also art paper had been used for 500 books.

The Treasurer had promised Rs. 220 per book for this year. It was decided by the EC that the Treasurer should pay the extra Rs. 37,000/- to Dr. Kalyan this time. But Dr. Ravi reminded that this should not be precedence. The EC fixed an amount of Rs. 250/- per CME book from next year as contribution from NSI. In no circumstance should the cost be > Rs. 250/-. If it exceeds Rs. 250/- then CME convenor should generate the funds. Prof. Rajshekhar suggested that publication of this CME book should be professionalized by giving to a good publisher. This will ensure uniformity and bring in professionalism.

The EC agreed and authorized Prof. Rajshekhar to entrust the CME book publication with a professional publisher with good track record. Copyright of publisher to be checked. Prof. Rajshekhar should make the proposal and being it to the mid year EC meeting for discussion and finalization.
