QMedCONNECT: Highlights of February 2019

---

From our Founder's Desk

February was the probably the heaviest month for workshops and lectures for QMed, in a long time. Needless to say that I enjoyed the month thoroughly. Every lecture and workshop had people telling me how important what we taught was. It was also interesting that we had organizations like "Garbhagudi" an Infertility Centre that had our workshop this month. This is a chain of clinics and they broke the oft quoted judgement that private centres would not be interested in such an academic workshop!
