Shyam is too modest He was < censored > years my junior in Medical College and I have not yet met him in meatspace.
But it is rumored that he did not find the MBBS course challenging enough and did a BSc simultaneously and concurrently with the MBBS course. He later did a PhD as well making him both a Lakshmi doctor and a Saraswati doctor. He is now a Neurologist (that means "nerves daktar" for all you lay lubbers) :) He set up the first alumni website for our med school and wrote some of the the early BBS software used. He still hosts both the official JIPMER website and the alumni website (jipmer.edu and jipmer.org) shiv On Tuesday 30 Jan 2007 10:46 am, Shyam Visweswaran wrote: > Hello all, > > Should have posted this sometime back.
