Imphal, October 13 2023:
Association of Surgeons of India, Manipur State Chapter held its 26th Annual Conference "ASIMANICON 2023" on the theme 'Surgical Challenges and Innovative Solutions' at the auditorium of JNIMS, here on Friday.
The inaugural function of the conference was attended by JNIMS director Prof Dr L Deben Singh as chief guest and ASI Manipur chairman Dr Jugindro Sorokhaibam as president while RIMS director Prof Dr G Sunil Kumar Sharma, National Health Mission Manipur director Dr Somorjit Ningombam and JNIMS Medical Superintendent Prof Dr Kh Lokeshwor Singh were present as guests of honour.
Speaking at the event, Dr Jugindro informed that the annual conference for this year was organised despite the prevailing situation due to the importance of sharing valuable knowledge in the surgical field.
Although the attendance of external delegates for this year's conference is quite low due to the conflict, it is worth to note that Manipur has made its mark in the field of neurosurgery, plastics surgery or advanced surgery technique.
Apart from latest equipment, the state now has skilled surgeons and both RIMS and JNIMS are almost on par with the different private hospitals, he added.
As part of the event, the dignitaries also released a souvenir.
