The department of Biochemistry, Goa Medical College, betters itself every year when they conduct this quiz in Biochemistry for the students of 1st MBBS. What I find extremely touching is how year after year, they manage to source lotuses to present to winners to commemorate the emblem of The Arundhati Foundation.
The session was inaugurated by the Dean of Goa Medical College Dr Shivanand Bandekar. Dr Andre Fernandes, Professor and HOD Department of Forensic Medicine was the guest of honour along with Dr Jagadish Cacodkar, Professor and HOD, Department of Preventive and Social Medicine.
The first prize was won by Rohan Luis Cabral and Saniya Mahendra Pednekar, the second place winners were Shrushti Prakash Mandrekar and Shubham Mablu Gaonker and the third place was bagged by Amisha Sawant and Siddhant Siddharth Desai.
Congratulations to all the winners.
I was lucky to attend last year, but this year, the corona virus pandemic made us stay put to curtail the spread. Dr Chitra’s team, as usual saw that the event went on very well. This year a group of young singers from 1st MBBS enthusiastically staged a wonderful performance. So heartening to see multi-talented youth.
The Arundhati Foundation thanks Dr Chitra Dhume, Professor and Head Dept Of Biochemistry, Goa Medical College and her entire team of Department Of Biochemistry for this event. It is only because of the support of such dedicated people that The Foundation has been able to do work of importance and quality in our small ways.
Ever grateful to you all.
May each and everyone of you always be blessed.
Here are a few pics from the event.
Thank you so much for the post. We felt really good organizing this quiz for a good cause. Education, which Arundhati would have cherished. Remembered her a lot that day. Missed Sanjay, Anuj and you too Shubhi that day. Thanks for the lovely pictures. The winners certainly deserved it.
