A significant step towards advancing medical care in Arunachal Pradesh was taken with the successful conclusion of the Arunachal-United Kingdom Joint Workshop on Renal Transplantation at TRIHMS, Naharlagun. The workshop brought together renowned experts, Dr. Atul Bagul from UHL NHS, United Kingdom, and Prof. (Dr.) Arun Kapur from ABVIMS & Dr. RML Hospital, New Delhi, to share their expertise with local medical professionals.
